Yeah, it really does seem weird. I'm ready for next week, going to be a big show since it's suppose to be their Homecoming.

Rumored Reason On Why Randy Orton Didn’t Sign With AEW

It was reported on Wrestling Observer Radio that Randy Orton was in talks with All Elite Wrestling.

However, the two sides couldn’t agree on money, and Orton was reportedly offered less than current AEW World Champion Chris Jericho is making with All Elite.

It’s being said that The Viper believed he was worth as much as Jericho, if not more, so he decided to stay with WWE

Orton makes a great point if this is true. He really is worth as much as Jericho, could be worth more. Big lost for AEW.

Low ball Orton but you overpay them little shits The Young bucks? Fuck this company

I sort of agree(not on the calling them little shits) but if the Bucks make bank, Orton surely deserves it.

Tho, some of their money probably comes from also being EVPs. But Orton surely deserved to be making Jericho level money. Dude could've been a huge grab for them. Sad they let that slip away.

 

[Hoss]

I would pay him as much as Jericho. I don't think I'd pay him more though. Jericho does a lot more promotion than what you'd get out of Orton. And it's not like Orton's a bigger name than him either.

I’ll take this with a grain of salt. I’m not sure of the source but I’ll post it here anyway just cause it’s news.


“AEW could be introducing an authority figure to their storylines soon.

AEW officials are considering adding a commissioner-type figure to TV, according to a new report from @Wrestlevotes.

There’s no word yet on who the authority figure might be, but AEW announced this week that Taz will be making his Dynamite debut for a special appearance at the Homecoming show from Jacksonville on January 8. The report noted that Taz is a name to watch for this new role.”

Win/loss records are being reset every year......so they really don't matter.

Yearly win lost records.

Career ones will still be a thing.

So could Mox lose his potential #1 contender spot when the records are resetting? I still don't quite get it. They haven't announced him getting a title shot, have they? Cos I know he was #1 in the rankings.

If he keeps winning, they probably will. He’s already number 1 so if he keeps going he’ll surely keep it.

Maybe could even have him make a point after losing a match and slipping to second to someone who just started winning this year and mention how it’s AEW once again trying to screw with him. Then he can beat the other guy, and become number 1 contender.

Oooh, that's good. I could see them doing that cos Mox had that "authority is against me" thing going for awhile. Plus Jericho seems to be trying to dodge him what with the offer to join the Inner Circle and that.

Next week’s episode of AEW Dynamite is set to air live on New Year’s Day, and it will be a special Homecoming edition of AEW’s flagship show.

The company recently announced that Taz will be making a special appearance on Dynamite next week, and it was also recently reported that AEW is considering adding a commissioner role to Dynamite with Taz being one of the names to watch.

Dave Meltzer of F4Wonline.com is now reporting that AEW has no plans to add an authority figure on television.


Taz will reportedly be working as an announcer on Wednesday, as Tony Schiavone will be calling the Sugar Bowl game for radio on that day.

Well, that puts that rumor to rest after like, a day.

I gotta listen to Taz commentary? Pass.
