Ethan Page needs work, but the drive is there.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Darby can 100% be world champ, 100% agree. Dude has it

 

[Comrade Khan]

prob not a long run and prob to put a big heel over, but his run would rule and he'd die in the ring before giving up.

I mean that's for me the biggest plus when it comes to AEW... it wouldn't completely feel outta place, if they'd suddenly strap a small rocket to someone like (for example) Jungle Boy for a couple of months and put him into the title picture or even give him the title for some time. Fans would love it, the match quality is obviously still on that level and it wouldn't feel like the end of his career, if he'd go back to other stuff afterwards.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Jungle Boy is a mystery. thirst trap. getting better at promos and in ring. mega over. has marquee matches. I think maybe just needs a tiny bit more character work and a believable promo style he is more comfy

 

[Comrade Khan]

but he is close. needs a single mid card run mb. darby is ahead for sure in my eyes

 

[Loochblade]

I'm not talking about making them champs tomorrow... but they could be put in the title picture in like 3-4 months and it wouldn't feel completely out of place.

 

[Comrade Khan]

and I think you are right Looch, crowd would react very well

 

[Comrade Khan]

they do love their homegrown guys especially, and jungle boy is definitely that guy

 

[Loochblade]

Fans have to rethink how it all works as well, not just the promotions and bookers and all that.

 

[Loochblade]

We have to be open to a new way of thinking

when Hook is world champ in 3-5 years

I hope he keeps at it. A stint in Japan would suit him a lot, I think.

even LA Dojo tbh. If he can get some tutelage under Shibata? forget about it

 

[Comrade Khan]

I would objectively say his strikes are the weakest part of his game so ya, japan style strong style striking training would be aces
