General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

He got the DM Title

oh ya? well that's something then

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Held it for a whole month

Admittedly to transition it between Crazzy Steve (who's probably gone despite still being a TNA representative on AAA TV and holding a AAA title) and AJ Francis

Also something wild happened on AAA TV recently

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Unimas aired a Pagano/Dorian Roldan in-ring worked shoot segment from earlier in the night. I guess they couldn’t fit in live and it wouldn’t make sense to air after, but it was also a pretty big promo. Roldan started the segment, talking about how he was “giving” Pagano a mega championship match against Alberto tonight. AAA cut to Pagano interrupting, berating Roldan for lying to the Juarez people. Pagano said he was only getting this shot because someone else got hurt. Pagano said this was not a storyline – using those words and more – and that he’d been asking Roldan for a title match and singles matches for years, and Roldan has refused. Pagano quoted Roldan as telling Pagano that both he and Psycho Clown were the new La Parkas, good for drawing children but not for anything beyond that, and the title matches were for other people. Pagano clearly sees that as immensely frustrating and feels disrespected by the idea Roldan was ‘giving’ him anything – he’s worked hard on every house, he sacrificed time with his family, he’s earned all that he’s got. Roldan tried to respond, but his microphone was off – I think the idea was the loyal Juarez production crew turned off his mic, but it’s AAA, so it’s hard to be sure it wasn’t just a gaffe. Pagano did a great job of conveying his genuine emotions, though obviously, this was part of a storyline since it turned up on AAA TV.

Russo working on AAA creative now?

I do actually think of comparing Russo to AAA creative a lot

 

[Leon TrotSky]

But the thing is even Russo let the good guys win sometimes

 

[Leon TrotSky]

AAA booking is like if you married Russo's love of swerves to Triple H's obsession with long heel runs with a dash of Bully Ray-esque "HEAT above all" attitude

 

[Death By Looch]

That's madness

 

[Leon TrotSky]

It's a genuinely bleak watching experience

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Something bad WILL happen to all your favourites, no matter how convoluted, and they'll never get back at the bad guys

Game of Thrones but turned to 11

Sounds like what it would've been if they pulled through with making the NWO an actual brand/own promotion
