IMO, if Wardlow has a world title with MJF I think it fits better if he did the j.o.b. Could be personal taste as well, but I just feel after that squash MJF would need to take this one.

story wise it could work. I just don't think he is HIM anymore. He has da look, he gt good facials. But his match structure, and especially his promos, need a lot of work still imo. Same with Hobbs. Love both those guys, but being big isnt enough in this company to be champion
Pretty much this. I think Tony killed his mystique pretty badly.

This is what I was saying. Prove he can be a legit tnt champion first.
yeah he gotta prove it to me. I know the booking is def partially to blame too, but I think he did look like a deer in headlights when the heat got real. I think he still higher pegged than hobbs. Hobbs is awesome but he looked like absolute crap against the luchas and he should have looked like a monster

Oh right. The last thing I remember is she was in that unification with Mandy and Meiko. I thought she might win considering she got added despite not being other champion.

partly yes but I also think if the only time you are over is when you hit a bunch of powerbombs, Im not sure how you book that without sacrificing your whole roster to a guy who doesnt really bring in money otherwise

tl dr, I think that wardlow is cool af but I think he had some fairly big holes in his game that were exposed and that aew did a bad job at hiding those and working with him.

Fair, but it can be done if done right.

But, yeah, it probably wasn’t meant to be. MJF would have needed a good run anyways and doubt he’d still be white hit by the time Full Gear rolls around.

I’m guessing she’s having visa issues currently

Also, I definitely don't feel like Wardlow should be the main champ. I always think the main champ should be able to be at the very least half decent on the mic. Wardlow really isn't. IMO, his promo delivery is very robotic and feels emotionless and just reading lines from a script. Could he develop this, sure, a lot of people do. BUt yeah, right now. I think he's where he should be and IF anything, I don't even like him that, but keep the TNT title on him just because it feels like it's just thrown back and forth after every challenge as of late.

Yeah, they have been for a while mainly because of the distance and all, from what I gathered. But there are still good friends apperently, and she found someone else so it all worked out

mjf did fuck him a bit too for sure, MJF not being around after the Wardlow won hurt his momentum in a similar fashion than omega not being around hurt hangman. the big difference is Hangman had 2 years of exposure with the crowd and presented as a main eventer for a while, and had the promo and character chops to stay above water. Wardlow def was done dirty, im not gonna put it all on him that would be super unfair
