Malakai Black believed to be finishing up with AEW

[Jimmy King]

I just thought of a possibility.

Spoiler tag because it talks about some stuff from last night

Spoiler

so, think about Will’s promo to Buddy after there match, and then the ending of Dynamite last night. What if we get Kenny, Will, and Buddy, and maybe even Brody thrown in vs The Don Callis Family?

I wouldn’t mind this tbh.

I love Aleister Black and I think he was a special performer but it seems clear to me after the back injury he just ain't the same performer. He is easily behind Brody King and Buddy in the ring nowadays imo. And if it ain't the after the effects of the back...

Good luck to him in WWE but I doubt he will do much different than this current AEW run except it will be midcard stuff in the singles division imo

And tbf I'm okay with that if I'm being honest. Worse guys could be in the role instead

My question is tho who's spot does he take. Sdl goes back to 2 h and the roster had never been more crowded. How is gonna be on TV weekly ?

 

[Comrade Khan]

No to mention there's not a lot of actual wrestling on these shows. So he's gonna end up spooky vignette guy just like in aew by 2026 imo

 

[Comrade Khan]

None of these are arguments for him to stay btw I just think it'll be a lateral move

I forgot it was going back to 2 h tbf but it's just a revolving door, guys who aren't use well might jump ship themselves. I think some rotating while others staying loyal to either company is a healthy mix and results in a good scenario for me as a fan usually.

Certainly agree it's a lateral move tho

 

[JakeYourBooty]

Maybe he just retires or goes to be a trainer at the PC

He clearly isn’t what he used to be

 

[Brandon Blaze]

Fuck it, go to TNA, tbh.


I say Japan but idk if his back can handle Japan lmao

I can't disagree for sure . I don't think it's a bad thing for fans.

I do think some talent are in for the same rude awakening like when they jumped from wwe and expected to be above everyone in aew.

Not saying that's malakai (though his rumored behavior would fit that bill) though.

I am happy most ppl are not blaming aew here though and are honest enough to see he was given ample opportunities. Just never fully clicked for reasons we may only speculate on

So , Danielson and swerve are prob the biggest wwe to aew successes right? Who else has done well?
I'd be interested in a graph or list to sink my teeth into since it's a hot subject

Miro obviously a massive bust

 

[JakeYourBooty]

I just he’s never physically recovered and is also a private guy so there’s no clarity

To break kayfabe for a second z

Toni has, from having a pie thrown into her face to one of the top women stars is a great turn around.

Danielson was already a GOAT

Swerve and Toni for me

 

[JakeYourBooty]

Mox also already a top guy

FTR def been a success
