complaining about unpredictability and surprises is actually crazy. Wrestling fans really don’t wanna be pleased, it’s nuts
What a bizarre post?

Like, yes all surprises are equally good?:heh:
Nah this is unhinged. Vince doesn't hate wrestling or it's fans he just knows that there's more money in being Turner than there is in being WCW so he moved accordingly and tried to expand beyond wrestling and appeal to as wide an audience as possible instead of just smarks.

That Tony is "one of us" cult you guys are in is weird because he has a lot more in common with Vince than you do with him. I pray you guys actually do something meaningful with your lives so you don't have to seek validation from how billionaires choose to run their TV shows.
Vince absolutely hates wrestling and it's well documented how much he hates wrestling and his own fans. :mjlol:

idk what he is

bad booker... he is no Gedo but


i think the bigger issue for me is sometime AEW just randomly drops shyt and never references it again. dropping shyt that isnt working can also be a good sign too tho. i don't know but he definitely not "the worst booker"

they still showing AAA

I watch a lot more AEW than WWE but I gotta be honest he's trash

When AEW first started I was giving him a shot since he was new to the business but he needs to let someone else be the booker

The roster is great and he's wasting so many opportunities by just randomly throwing together matches

Too maybe terrible match finishes and letting bums have long matches with legit stars

I'm not sure who would be a good booker for AEW but they gotta try something different

He been unraveling badly since he bought ROH and getting wiped by injuries. I think he needs to consolidate responsibility and do more delegating. He hasn't necessarily been bad, but he's just making a lot of mediocre decisions. He needs to either to trim the roster down or create a system where talent cycle through better. Bring in a fresh perspective on managing segments.


The bloated PPV card situation has to get sorted out. Either change the format...

Make it a two night format.

Make Dynamite the go home show.

Turn Rampage a Night 1 FREE show. Have a more condense PPV card on Saturday.

Nobody was saying that


This thread was in reaction to MJF’s surprise return. It just seemed like something incredibly random to be upset about
This thread was not a reaction to mjf. It was about khans booking in general. He relies on surprises instead of actual logical thought out storytelling. He also books like a mark that assumes everyone watches every god damn promotion in the world.

Khan isn't a storyteller at all. A lot of that falls on the wresters.

:francis: It was a wrap when they gave a mark a book.

You never give a mark a book.

You can love wrestling all you want and know how many hair follicles on Hulk Hokkkans head, but you got to realize that you are dealing with a business first, not a Fire Pro Wrestling game :camby: .

I said this countless and countless times, AEW should have just been All In ala a celebration of past, present, and future of professional wrestling.

Not a fukking promotion with egos out of the ass and hopes that a fan will know why Adam Page wore a bandaid on his knee, because he did some dumb shyt on YouTube.

  • Random booking (it is what it is...I watched WCW)
  • Random stables (It is what it is...I watched WCW)
  • Half ass storylines (That turned me off from WCW)
  • Tournaments out of the ass (NJPW you are not Khan)
It sucks that we got to this point, when countless folks including ya marsupial was spitting some gospel to this fall off. Yes some folks were unhinged, but deep inside we all want the shyt to succeed, because its a reflection of the business overall.

Khan needs to just sit this one out and give the book to someone that doesn't have mod packs on a old ass 1 tb harddrive:francis:
