We did get Glock Anderson out of it however. So…. Worth it.
Ya that was a fun meme
I personally think it makes far more sense because as much as I like punk that angle had so little heat from what I remember in the buildup like it just kind of came out of nowhere but Cody and Hangman had history.

I would’ve personally even had Cody beat him at double or nothing because I personally do think Cody should’ve been the AEW champion at some point but I think that would’ve been the perfect time to do it.

And I can see Cody refusing to turn heel if he wasn’t going to get the title shot.
Cody was the guy who turned on Kenny n took hangman under his wing. Tons of story there for sure

Can’t wait when he shows back up in five years in heel mode. Long term storytelling

I'd be so shocked if he didn't, but I think it could be a long while
minimum 3 years I'd say and thats not including the 6 months off they could tack on

Being serious, I think Cody still had a lot of say on his booking still. TK has said he takes ideas from the wrestlers and the UK vs USA feels very old school 80's vibe which is something Cody loves aka taking old stuff and making it new. I also do think Cody knowing he was going wanted to put Sammy over and was one of his biggest supporters

Dave Meltzer two days ago: Tony Khan told the locker room no one will be getting released and everyone must honor their contract.

Malakai Black on IG yesterday: I wasn't released, I'll be back in a few months.

SRS: REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I HAVE RECEIPTS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

All SRS had to do was word his shit like Dave did, instead he went full Twitter clown. This dirtsheet shit can't be that hard can it?

Not to defend his comments there (which he admitted were wrong) but he seems to be going through his grandma having medical issues so is probably not thinking 100% rationally atm

I only vaguely remember that suspension rumor myself, this was towards the beginning of the year correct?
