TBH, I would go babysteps with wrestling nowadays lol. This shyt is going through a transition because most of the big names are either retiring, on the shelf, or just done with wrestling. The fandom is obnoxious, and quite frankly there's not really many compelling storylines at this very moment.

The only reason why I got back into the shyt is because I never left lol, just took a sabbatical and realize my true heart always been puro and indies, not so much the big two and a half.

On the real, you will be good with catching a big event or two and calling it a day. Trust, you are not really missing much as the storylines nowadays are on some NWA/WCW long term shyt.

Good to know! I've definitely wanted to see some Toni Storm because I heard her gimmick was great.

[What Happened When] Tony Schiavone on his Hulk Hogan tribute on AEW Collision: "I put it together. And I remember telling Tony, I said, ‘Do you want me to read it to you?’ He said, ‘No, I trust you.’ I said, ‘Okay.’ And then I told the guys in the truck, I said, ‘Please, do not wrap me up.' And they said 'Okay.'​

I feel like every segment has served a purpose and they've def horn away from the random matches thing. Like Collision for example that is usually random bangers. They had the Mox and DR in ring promo which setup a few segments backstage with Darby later. The Stat squash match gave the interacting with Willow crossing paths with her walking to the ring, then Willow vs Tekla gave the interaction at the end with all the women crossing paths. Ricochet and Briscoe have a history and of course the TNT title match had its purpose. But all the pieces have been used to fit into the bigger puzzle somehow. Whether it's a major storyline or a smaller one. The people being featured all have something to do.

So Fraudsley bringing back Brock might have more E fans jumping ship. Already seen a thread on Wreddit. :heh:

All it takes is something like this before people are fed up with it, but they can put up with the senseless booking. :dead:

They did 10k last year. Decent number. They gotta beat that this year. Need a strong card and build. Last year was a decent card. Matches included Mox vs OC, Swerve vs Lashley, Will vs Kyle, and Mercedes vs Stat. I commented asking if the venue supports two rings cuz a blood and guts match especially a woman's one would be great here. Especially if it shows they can continue booking the woman in feuds leading up to the event on a consistent basis.

This should be the last time they repeat the venue there tho. No need to go back next year. Don't make it another Chicago or worse Vegas. Can't imagine what that would be like with how much business the city has lost and AEW not able to do well the last time after going there too many times. Let's see how WWE even does when they go back.

Only event left in 2025 is World's End. Hopefully that's not in Orlando again tho. TK should come down here instead.

I could see MJF interfering in the Hurt Syndicate's match with FTR costing them the tag titles only for the Hurt Syndicate costing MJF his title shot against Hangman. This could lead into Bobby vs. MJF or a trios with MJF/FTR vs. Hurt Syndicate & taking MJF out of the title picture for a bit. You could throw Edge and/or Christian into that feud too since Edge has already teamed with the THS.
