General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

[Comrade Khan]

honestly feels like it happens with elite stuff more than others too

yeah and specifically Bucks adjacent stuff? Like Kenny himself outside injury, solid booking. Hangman pre-punk was solid too and now back to being rehabbed fully, but ya, I think its the bucks

 

[Comrade Khan]

I like them a lot, but from a 'for the company' pov, I find them to be a little unreliable at time. Always 10/10 in ring but they seem...idk...unmotivated at times? Maybe it's just my own perception atm

 

[Comrade Khan]

like even this new angle they don't really feel like they have that same drive or bite as in y1 and y2 when they were, for lack of better terms, all in

 

[Samoa Looch]

probably one thing aew at times struggles with. not always obv but they have a few misses like that where the beginning was awesome but the follow through left some to be desired

I feel like there is a lot of "This idea is awesome, let's do it" and they starting it, but not having an end game already in mind. That's why there is sometimes such long-ass storytelling and start/stopping of rivalries involved... I think

yeah I agree with that. idk if its the bucks creative or tony in general. i know its happened to other stories too so I cant lay it all on the bucks

 

[Comrade Khan]

but ya sometimes it feels like they dont have an endgame, or someone just changes their mind on the endgame and then they start kind of not going full bore. it can be a bit frustrating as a fan who gets invested and hype for new stories

 

[Comrade Khan]

dont get me wrong, I think Mox n co are crushing this angle and doing wayyyy better than the bucks did with theirs. but the bucks stuff had so much potential.

 

[Comrade Khan]

and it felt their heart just wasnt fully into it unlike Jack who is clearly fully believing in his character

 

[Comrade Khan]

id love to know what actually happened

 

[Comrade Khan]

its like they wanted to hang out with okada then got bored lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

all i will say - I certainly miss Extremely Violent People era Bucks

 

[Comrade Khan]

prob my fave version. certainly in aew

 

[Comrade Khan]

also the shoeless finish to ftr match. i think imo thats the best ftr bucks match and it's been less and less good since. maybe a hot take idk

Btw
