Not pro AEW signing many more people but after the performance by BANDIDO on Wednesday, I feel you have to sign him. Hopefully he gets time as his match with Jericho was the most I've enjoyed a Jericho match since his Kingston one



I mean tbf, getting a TV deal takes time. It's not as easy as snapping your fingers. I beat if he turned Dark into ROH people would flip out and says he is burying ROH by putting it on youtube
I wouldn't be one of those people. I think it would be a better thing to do now and then work on the tv deal. But yeah I can definitely see some ROH die hards thinking it's TK stepping on the neck of ROH even though that doesn't make sense to me.

I wouldn't even blame them for being annoyed but yeah I've seen some very misplaced anger myself that logically doesn't make any sense lmao

Just to continue this thought, surely if a fan of bandido this is by far his best option? Impact pays dogshit n ive never heard of wwe reaching out n hes been a free agent for quite some time now

Tbf I try and be happy for people getting paid but being unhappy with how they're used usually trumps that selfishly lol I've claimed that I wish a lot of people would go to Impact from time to time knowing that they themselves would not be that satisfied with it :lol

Understandable. That being said , whens the last time impact pushed a luchador seriously? Seem to have a small ceiling there

I'm not a fan of how Laredo Kid has been used myself (other than match quality) by them but unsure if that's inconsistency of him making taping dates or not either, feels like he's not there every cycle

I'd say that would be more on Vince's policy change. Like I'm kind of shocked in hindsight AEW didn't make a play sooner like at the start. I forgot how good he was but I remember seeing him live at the Progress Wembley show and he was great
