    Hi, Chosen feds are AEW, WWE & New Japan because they're the biggest feds and variety is the spice of life (also not everybody watches WWE weekly either...). There's no penalty for skipping a show, and also given how wrestling works there's no guarantee that you'll get everything right just...

    Flair would be THE guy for the Horsemen, but they already have Arn and Tully... Don't know who owns the Horseman name but if you've got a boatload of money, freedom to do what you want, a respect for the history of the business and one of THE names in wrestling that was way over due to a...

    I think he eventually loses to MJF. But only after a long ass reign that get's Cody waaaaaayyyyyy over and creates a new heel faction. I am so strongly of the belief that Cody is modeling his AEW run after his dads..... I'm fully expecting a feud with a Horsemen group at some point in the near...

    I think the difference between AEW and WWE (because lets be honest, that's the comparison) is that AEW is being run by a bunch of wrestling fans that aren't trying to capture an audience, they're just trying do what they would enjoy watching and it really shows.

    Just finished watching the show... and two things stand out to me: 1. The Stadium Stampede match was awesome - like an actual, laugh out loud awesome piece of work... the pinacle of the pre-recorded matches so far and I don't see how it can be topped - rolling northen lights for the length of...

    Oh, it's definitly a difference of opinion, I'm not a fan of Moxley because I've never been entertained by him in an actual match. The build up to the Jericho one was fine but, especially in a company like this where the majority of the wrestlers can put on ridiculous matches, I just don't see...

    Whether they entertain me, whether they entertain lots of others (based on crowd reactions) and whether they come across as a "star", which is still the way I judge wrestlers now. I'm not sure why you believe I'm obsessed with social media based on what I've written. Do you believe that the...

    Because: A: He's the world champion, part of that responsibility is promoting the company and TV show you work for (unless there's somebody else in a prominant position that can do so, in which case you're just a storyline champion and anybody can fill the role. B: He's barely been on TV and...

    For those intersested - below are the forums current opinion on how the matches will go (i'm looking for a name for this btw - I'd like to include the forums "hive-mind" in the rankings but that has such negative connotations around it that I feel like another name would be better): As you...

    This is up to eight matches now (according to it's wiki) - including the Inner Circle vs The Elite in a "Stadium Stampede" match.... which begs the question: "if there's no crowd and this many guys in a match, why not just do Blood and Guts?"....

    Like I mentioned in the MITB thread - I'm actually enjoying AEW's no crowd shows simply for how outlandish they're getting and the way the wrestlers are being "fans" but as wrestlers in the front row. Do I want to see this PPV crowd or no? Yes, absolutely, they've proven they can make the show...
