There are only a few people that could show who will match all the hype that Tony has created for this upcoming Dynamite.
Hope this doesn't bite TK and AEW in the ass because it will be an unforced error if it does.

For all those saying Jeff Hardy, as I said earlier in this thread his non-compete doesn't expire until March 9th. Don't think TK is gonna encourage someone to break that and pay for their litigation. Probably makes more sense for Hardy to debut the dynamite after Revolution.

Meanwhile he's encourage people to "slam the door in the face of their prior company"

I see a lot of people saying Keith Lee, but he wouldn't qualify as forbidden door since he's a free agent. It would have to be someone still contracted by another company with the way he worded it. Jeff Hardy would make the most sense, as he's technically still a WWE employee. Or if they're able to grab someone who is still active, that would completely change the whole "independent contractor" game in the business.

After typing all that, I'm still expecting us to all be disappointed with whatever or whoever it is :mjlol:

I'm figuring it's Jeff and because of the murky circumstances he got released from, the E let him out of his 90 day early.

Tony gotta chill on the fukking Fire Pro sized roster with 3 hours of tv time a week. (the internet shows don't count to me)

Keith's just the easy guess since there's no strings attached but who honestly cares about him lol. In other words, that's not a name you spend a week gasing if you know what you're doing.

I don't think the E let Jeff out of his non-compete. There's probably a technicality with the negative drug test which is more than likely why Tony's hyping it up since most people that watch his product live on dirt sheets, know the business, and know nothing like this has happened before, which is why Jeff makes perfect sense.

Y’all saying Keith Lee like he hypes up the black folks coming in. Jay Lethal is the greatest champion ROH has ever had and they had him out there like Tito Jackson at a family reunion

Keith is literally gonna walk past the camera on accident with some reading glasses on holding a Shakespeare play on some “salutations good man”

Picturing this shyt has me weak as hell for whatever reason. :laff:


Producer: "Keef, you're in the frame. :damn:"

Keef: "Egad! We have created quite the conundrum it would seem. :jbhmm:"

I'ma back track on this being Keith Lee...the way this is hyped I'm going to guess it's someone more popular. It's got to be Jeff Hardy. Not sure if he has a 90 day clause but he is the biggest free agent that's not Hogan or Flair. The main stream isn't going to know or care about the ROH free agents so I think that's that it. Anyone less than Jeff Hardy status will come off as fake hype.


Last time they hyped up signings it was jay lethal(marks swore it was bray) and the hottest free agent tony “catch me on youtube on mondays” nese

maybe it's Tyson Kidd?

didn't he just quit being a producer in WWE? Seems like AEW would probably clear him to wrestle if he wanted. Plus it gives them another person with a Hart connection to throw in that tourney milking Owen's name

I don't think it's gonna be Keith Lee tbh. It would be great if it was, but I doubt it.

They need to pick up some more girls though. Athena is right there......

Ain't nobody checking for no damn Keith Lee. :stopitslime:

It better not be him.

I could see it being Jeff, he ain't leave on the best of terms. Could see him saying fukk the 90 day shyt.

Wouldn't read much into Khan using "forbidden door" anyway, he trademarked that shyt so there's a 99% chance he's just throwing it out there even if it doesn't fit the situation.
