8MileBU Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Adam Cole I get there are many moves that require the opponent to do a bit to make happen, but The Panama Sunrise should go on the banned moves list. The forced falseness of that move looks awful. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lio Rush has announced that his contract expires on February 22nd. He disappeared from TV after asking Tony Khan to apologise following the Big Swole podcast backlash. It does beg the question how long he signed for in the first place. 6 month deal as he wasn't sure that he wanted to come out of "retirement". He's a roaster of the highest order. On that theme 411 are saying that with a bunch of the original deals coming up soon a lot of folk are not going to be resigned. If this means I never need to see Joey Janela or Sonny Kiss again then I am all for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus sting is still better entertainment than 70% of the roster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are quite a few like that that were on TV nearly every week for a while, but havent been seen for ages (I dont watch dark or dark elevation so they may be on there). I would think the Dark Order guys are pretty safe this time around for obvious reasons, but a few probably will be gone in the next round of cuts. There are quite a few that I liked the Butcher and the Blade, etc that were getting decent air time, that seem to have been lost in the shuffle of the new signings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 The Butcher's had some injuries and was in a band. Which meant he would disappear on tour every once in a while. Every Time I Die just split up though. Hopefully he might be back a bit more and was there on the stairwell for the AHFO merger promo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_diamond Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I think AEW are well positioned to let 15 or 20 extra bodies go. They've established a good system of feeding talent good local and indie workers on Dark and Dark elevation for semi competitive squash wins so there isn't as pressing a need to "do something" with the jobbers like Janela and Avalon any more. Keep the upper and midcard for the main TV shows and it will help a lot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoon Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 I think Janela’s fine, and it keeps them in the GCW good books if he’s around. Wouldn’t feature him every week or anything but he’s had some really good matches with guys there and is a credible enough TV heel to wheel out when needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoon Posted January 27, 2022 Author Share Posted January 27, 2022 Watched that move about 20 times now. So many cool spots in that one match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I really liked the opening and closing matches, but outwith the great segment with Punk and MJF, I feel like they need to move on with some of the other feuds. Britt's promo was fine, but it was a bit pointless without setting up a new challenger for her. Private Party being number one tag contenders also seems a bit weird. I'm glad that Cole & Co vs Best Friends now appears to be done and they can finally go with the proper Super Kliq break up angle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 That ladder spot is literally jaw-dropping. It's fucking beautifully executed by both men, Sammy in particular. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Iv never been a massive cody fan since the mask days in wwe, which I barely watched. His work in aew has been quite tremendous though. I don't really understand why he's hated so much when he's putting out matches and spots like that with people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
