Seth Rollins comments on AEW referencing WWE, him referencing Moxley

[Cwalker]

Seth will be a babyface by the summer but there’s no chance Cody comes in and is the heel.

Once that “Wrestling has more than one royal family” hits, the crowd is going to pop and they’ll probably refuse to boo him.

At least for the first few weeks

pretty much what im thinking and for that same logic. i agree seth will go tweener or face him and KO are already halfway there imo and i barely watch , they get those reactions though.

Isn't it better to tune into AEW and not the "fuck WWE" show?

I don't want to hear people from The Wire dropping lines at Oz because there's no way it leads to anything.

Because that's what name dropping another rasslin promotion on a show that you know will not have any interaction whatsoever is.

I think it’s only bad when you start doing it weekly like late WCW or early TNA used to do.

AEW does teeter on the line where it can be a bit much but they haven’t crossed it yet

Even in WCW the only ones I found in absolute poor taste were spoiling shows and then Oklahoma as a character in general. But other than that, I'm all for it bc it's funny as hell to me lol Nacho Man and the Huckster vignettes are classics, WWF not WCW but same principle

 

[Swerve]

Cody probably going to get buried.

 

[Lethal]

He’s 100% spot on. Focus on your own backyard rather than taking shots at the neighbour (explosion match anyone?)

 

[Chris]

Was the explosion match a shot at WWE? Or would it have went off well if they weren't taking shots? I'm confused lol most came after it anyway, Britt took a lot last year I remember specifically but all after she became champ

Oklahoma was the WOAT

absolute garbage

Makes the May Young Mark Henry Hand Baby look like The Kane origin story

she was mostly burying ppl that came from nxt iirc yeah. i think that was the most prominent example of doing it for ''no real reason''. no idea what lthal is on about the explosion match unless you mean focus on your own shit so it doesnt fuck up but i dont think that britt cutting sassy promos on wwe talent has anything to do with rigging up explosives lol

 

[Chris]

Currently it's def Jericho more than anyone but he's using WWE stuff to get heat instead of pops so that feels different and also hilarious how just saying "sports entertainment" generates heat

 

[Chris]

Kinda wish WWE woulda taken a shot about the explosion thing tbh lol Corey probably tried on commentary and no one noticed cause we all tune him out tho

 

[Chris]

Oh I do remember Eddie Kingston had probably the most egregious example of outright calling out WWE too but I think that was actually off air....and then they decided to air it the next week on Dark or something bc they liked the promo lol thats probably a good example of the plot being lost bc it was a good promo but it did feel kinda like "but why are you even caring about them?" Situation for me

 

[Swerve]

Ricky Starks indirectly mentioned WWE by saying Swerve got evicted from his last house.

I see from all edges. Well, sides of the coin here. However, I grew up with WWF vs WCW vs ECW a bit. I am used to companies taking pot shots at each other. I remember in 2010-2014, Impact used to take shots at WWE all the time.

^^^ and this is why I’m fine with it. Back then all 3 did this shit all the damn time. It is what I grew up on and what I loved about that time. So it’s like give me that shit!
