plus this whole third party edict?
My guess is he didn’t like seeing someone like Reigns being able to live off Cameo and tell him to fuck off.

Yeah, I’m just guessing based on how people have been presented lately. I would put Darby with Brodie for a while and go for the TNT belt if it were up to me.

how do you think the mox/mjf match will play out? clean finish?

Obviously it depends on who wins, but if Mox wins I see it being a clean finish, but in a way where Max gets huge street cred for toughness. I see Mox as the Foley to MJF’s Rock/Orton here.

i don't think a clean loss would bury mjf at all, but i've had this weird gut feeling about Wardlow turning on him

One of the best things about AEW is that all the big matches can go either way heading in.

I thought All Out was good, dragged out, but good. FTR/Page & Omega and Mox/MJF we’re both good matches but both were too long. Shida vs Thunder Rosa was awesome.

Yeah, it wasnt the best way to bring him in, but I have high hopes for him there, the guy is so much better at everything than he was ever given a chance to show in WWE.

so is the ftw thing supposed to be a legitimate belt now? because if not they will really need another soon with all this talent...and that second show...

I dunno, I kind of like where it is right now. If they add another title it would lessen the TNT title which they have done a great job building prestige for. Maybe 6 Man Tag Titles?

I wouldnt mind something like what NWA was doing with the TV title right before the shutdown. A belt where if you successfully defend it a certain amount of times, you get a world title shot and the title is vacated.

hmm...that is interesting

my thing is i like long reigns/storylines with champions generally...but with everybody AEW has now i'm afraid there won't be enough to go around if that's done

Yeah, I kind of think AEW has too many wrestlers right now, but other than a few of their womens signings and a couple exceptions, everyone they've hired I've been like "yeah you want to scoop that person up if they are available."

agreed...

they topped a million viewers last night...i know it wasn't head to head with NXT, but up against a NBA playoff game and after a not super great PPV i think that's pretty dang impressive

They are still less than a year into it, constantly do 800-900k viewers and are now inching back up to where they were the first couple weeks, everything is going pretty great for them all things considered.

They are also closing in on Raw and becoming the highest rated wrestling show in the key demo.
