I also think they leave Swerve out of this
all depends who his next opponent is but i think he will stay out of it at first unless forced. I think hangman reappearing will force him to take action tho whenever that is

It’s just weird cuz he’s technically still the leader of a heel stable.

FTR is almost a gimme.

Copeland has somehow become a flag bearer for the company(not saying it’s a bad thing, but dude’s been there what, 6 months? There are other people that could’ve had that role.)

And lastly will probably be Page. Which is fine.

So I’ll say Copeland, Page and FTR

Can’t imagine him not going right after Cole
yeah for sure that's gonna happen. same thing with Cope Malakai.

I'm very intrigued if and how this angle will affect the ''world'' of aew , like are they gonna run roughshod over the whole company and start inserting themselves in angles or will it only be for the feuds they are personally in

Right now I'm thinking it's kinda obvious where they'll go. This is going to be a long story, I'm sure, so they'll probably start with some "minor" good guys á la Top Flight first, before they quickly go to The Acclaimed/FTR... maybe they'll throw Kingston/Swerve/Ospreay in as well. Heck, somewhere down the road they'll probably have the BCC involved too.

I would fuckin' die if The Patriarchy returns and somehow turn faces just for a month or so to battle The Elite VPs :bosque

This is a big deal for AEW.

Across social media and wrestling pundits, probably the biggest knock against the company is that they can’t tell stories the best.

You knock this out the park, you silence those people.

The Hangman story was amazing
The Cole/MJF was good until the injury fucked it
Eddie’s story
Swerve Hangman also great story


Not saying it’s you but people knocking AEW story telling are being dishonest

I’m just going off what I’ve seen is the biggest knock.

Like you said it isn’t me

I'll accept not liking stories obviously anyway but the funny one to me is always "there's no stories" like no, everyone has some shit going on, sometimes it's just not explained well lmao

I will say this story feels "big" where it affects the whole show n I will say it's been since like Kenny's reign that's been the case imo

I know they have stories but the problem for me is I have a hard time getting invested in them. There’s been some that are an exception to that, I think the last one I was invested in was MJF and Cole.
