Aldis is possible, Moose is solidly in midcard feuds atm. Also Maclin was built up for like a year + he ain't dropping it anytime soon, hell id say he is not dropping it at least until he fights Josh once he comes back from injury
I know they’ve been building Maclin for what seems like years and as much as I love Kushida, he wasn’t winning the belt. But at the same time, I’m not super high on Maclin. Like…he’s good, just unspectacular.
Where there are guys like Aldis who I have been a fan of since 2013 or a guy like Moose who when he initially turned heel I was a big fan.
Josh is obviously the dude. And Maclin will hold the belt til he comes back because a babyface coming back and fighting for the belt he never lost is the easiest story ever, but if I had the book, it wouldn’t have been Maclin.
