Can I officially say now that All Elite is the goat right now?

Also, he gets to use Andrade? :proud

Indeed. He was introduced by Vicky Guerrero as well (natural pairing , I approve )

As much I liked Cien Almas, Andrade El Idolo has an equally cool ring to it.

I love Vickie bringing him in. I think that'll be better for her talents than Nyla, not that she's not done well there, either.

I will miss Zelina, though. :pour

Yeah me to , but im sure if End comes over, so will zelina if she wants to ofc.

N yea I've seen nyla progress n she doesn't even really need Vicky anymore tbh. She can promo n has shown ton of personality. Andrade needs a mouth piece though as his accent is fairly thick. Plus Vicky is a man eater n he's super handsome, I think there's some good potential in that dynamic

I still want Andrade to promo as he seemed fine last night, but yeah, let Vickie do most of it and get the heat.

Andrade and Miro were probably two of top 5 next generation wrestlers I would have built WWE around so now that they're in AEW, this place is the goat to me. And that's on top of having Omega, Cody, Shida, Britt, Penta, Pac and the rest of this amazing ass roster. It's so much better now in just 2 years.

I'll be honest, I enjoyed most of the 2019 and early 2020 shows they did, but I wasn't hyped for it at the time. Not until the second half of 2020 and then it just took off like a rocket and it just keeps better and better with each passing month. That St. Patrick's Day Slam to DON was a quality string especially.

Andrade is part of his real name so as long as he doesn't use Andrade Almas or even "Cien" Almas he is fine to use it. Kind of like how Cody can't use Cody Rhodes, but he can use Cody and be fine.

Oh shit I forgot he did have that in his name because it's Mexican/Spanish tradition to take both parents surnames, yeah?

Yes, it is. His full name is Manuel Alfonso Andrade Oropeza, with Andrade being the first or paternal surname and Oropeza being the second or maternal surname.

I can understand that for sure. They've really put the pedal to the metal since end if 2020 n these signings are really solidifying their cards top to bottom. So now they have stars today n stars tomorrow which is really important for them long term . Can't wait to see how Kenny handles this since he's suppose to defend his AAA belt vs Andrade at triplemania. Andrade being all elite adds quite a few layers to that!

That much became must see since that angle might and should be used on TNT as well now.

Imagine if Andrade wins and shows up on Dynamite with the belt. :banderas:

This line is honestly super important. I've never been one to say you can't sign or push ex-WWE guys, but I thought it was a mistake having Jericho be the first champion and then immiedtely giving it to Jon Moxley. I was kinda disillusioned with it. Especially when they have MJF and Hangman right there.

Yeah in hindsight, mox taking it off y2j was not the most exciting thing. I get it, they needed big names to push the early brand. But it often never felt like aew's own champ (heck I'd have even considered Cody). Then pandemic happened n mox had a bit of a meh run outside the omega feud (not all his fault at all).

Kenny being champ really made things more spicy n interesting. Everything has been shaken up since b on most nights, u get a lot more of that "anything can happen " feel which I'm.sure we all love
