The Wrestling Thread v.10K Lethal Lockdown! - Let me in...CAUSE ITS BOSS TIME! - Clash of Champions 9/15

Which is why I would be worried…but I believe Cody and the Bucks are smart enough to learn from the past.

I hope they retire to backstage once they reveal their TV deal.

Goddamit Bayley

Backed by big money is huge. It means they can at least NOT lose talent to WWE over a ton of money.

WCW, ECW, and TNA had varying levels of success depending on what metric you go by. They’ve also made mistakes and fell apart. I imagine AEW is aware of what did and did not work.

If they cater to the smarky crowd only and they do not reel in the casual WWE audience, then their upside is limited. Or maybe they try to go after that WWE crowd, but end up upsetting the smarky crowd. They could do pretty well and/or they could fail for an entirely different reason.

There are a lot of questions still and I totally get the pessimism, but as of now, they do have something tangible.

Bayley has always been super cut with a nice butt. I remember when she debuted in nxt she was wearing adorable green tights with a triceratops and robots all over them. I was in love. :heart:

When is Bayley going to sport the Mandy Rose short shorts?

Jay White vs Kota Ibushi will headline msg if they intend to keep the belt on jay

I would do naito and go with naito as double champ and top guy

I read somewhere that ROH put a lot of money into All In…but didn’t receive much of the profits.

They only helped with production cost.

Still hot!
Part of the elite backstage three.

Dasha, Cathy and Kayla.

I don’t find Dasha attractive.
Cathy is aight. Cute smile and fit.
Kayla is the cutest of the three by far. I think it’s the freckles

That’s a skin defect.

Whatever it is it’s cute af and I love it

Sasha medically cleared for elimination chamber

This is wrestling. The business is inherently grimey. The best and most successful guys tend to screw a few people over. RoH getting burned for AEW to rise is nothing. RoH had been struggling to keep itself relevant for years. Breaking New Japan into the US market is all they’re good for these days.

That’s because lizard man is a fucking terrible booker who doesn’t push new stars and constantly shoves Jay Lethal down peoples neck.

When Adam Pearce and even Jim Cornette had the book they had a lot going for them. But The locker room basically started a coup and got Cornette fired and iirc when Sinclair bought ROH from Cary Silkin they fired Adam and promoted Delirious to head of creative.

I’ll take Lethal over Matt Taven. He’s not bland and boring like Taven.

When it was announced that AEW signed Nyla Rose, a transgender woman, to their women’s division…quite a backlash online.

Good to see Cody and Brandi finally take a stand against the homophobia.
