I'd be shocked if TNA or MLW didn't give him a shot as an upper midcarder in a featured feud quickly.

X division feud with Ali seems a good start

Now I’m torn about which where I want him to go. Because I think court would come up with something really juicy for him to do but TNA would be the place where he get a bigger platform.

I feel bad for Ortiz though because that’s tag team is what he had. Santana seems to be doing well but Ortiz is just gonna be Eddie Kingston’s occasional plus one when he needs a partner but otherwise will just be chilling. :pour
Sadly Ortiz is just not a singles guy imo. Not much value for him in aew without his partner, n I apologize to him if that sounds harsh. Dunno what u do w him on this busy roster

Hope he does well. Another malcontent out the door makes me happy though
Contract probably quietly lapsed, but this is why I think Tony should just give releases to people that want them.

No, we agree on this. That’s why I’m saying I don’t see Ortiz doing anything except for like I said when Kingston needs a tagteam partner that particular week call him out of catering but otherwise I don’t know what to do with him. Unless you can find him a permanent new partner, which honestly Maybe Tony should look into that unless he plans on getting rid of Ortiz.

I'm on the fence because not cutting them causes them to he big bitches on Twitter at times. On the flip side sometimes stuff gets better.

In the past they needed all hands on deck tho. Now? Like idk if aew would even break a sweat releasing guys like Miro n others. Esp guys who barely show up anyways, what's the point anymore.

Honestly, though I’m surprised, the bodega still isn’t on major television. If you don’t know who that is, that was the MLW version of LAX. Danny limelight and slice boogie. If you brought them into AEW and put Ortiz with them that would be gold.

Here’s a question I have, after seeing his BS in AEW..does WWE bother with Miro when he gets released?

Danny Limelight is honestly also killing it as a singles star so if you put Ortiz with slice boogie and made them the tagteam and then limelight could focus on singles action.
