You made Joey the guy people could get behind and it didnt take a tourney immediately to prove it.

I paid all the dues cause I'm the best. Only lost one singles match. Pure legend.

Alias came in as a lowcard in the cure but he beat asses and took names and it made him stand out.

i know, and some people still are payin dues, but not everyone is. And with tag teams, its different than one single person, its easier to build tag teams when theres an end goal imo

 

[Aids Johnson]

shit Tumbas didnt get a title shot until WM and he stood strong as fuck

 

[Aids Johnson]

I think tag teams gives more goals with PM'ing.

 

[Aids Johnson]

which apparently no one does anymore and we always did. I PM'd with VP to set it up (the match wasnt) and the only outside shit was me adding you

 

[Aids Johnson]

and it ended up paying off because you had 0 reason to be in the match outside of deserving it and people knowing your character.

 

[DK JAMES]

in terms of current day IWT, getting people interested in tag teams will need the gold there. People still PM and work shit out and people still pay dues, but I just think tag teams are a different subject

 

[Aids Johnson]

and honestly those not paying dues dont deserve it.

 

[Aids Johnson]

the gold will be there, but how do you establish a team without a proper build?

 

[Aids Johnson]

why not see yourself ascending the top of the mountain rather than some ill placed obstacle?

 

[DK JAMES]

I mean just look at the Dusty Rhodes tag tourney that happened in NXT a couple years back. It was just a bunch of random teams thrown together and teams establish themselves throughout the tournament. I know we aint WWE but its just an example. If they can do it, so can IWT

 

[Aids Johnson]

oh aids and THG are now tag champs, welcome to the new tournament - instead of there will be a 3 month trial period in which teams compete and at the end we will have a truly deserving tourney?

 

[Aids Johnson]

That was some incredible work and build though.
