Retire the FTW Championship? That's his family's legacy right there! What kind of man would willingly give that up? To please fans on Twitter?

Because AEW has a lot of Titles running around already? Because he doesn't want someone like Chris Jericho tarnish and bastardize the Title again at some point? Because he just wants to?

Because it's a storyline?

Because it is time to move on from the FTW title. It is holding him back if anything and it is time for him to move past it.

I'd also argue it is fitting with a promo from BCC about young talent being in the same for years. Maybe Hook listened to that?

Because he wants a championship that actually matters, and that actually counts and is recognized. He’s going to eventually move on to the TNT Title and win it from Jack Perry, and hold it for a little bit, have a killer reign with it, and build himself up more without the crutch that is the FTW Championship.

I keep seeing this but here's the flaw in that logic, didn't he already challenge for the world title while stay having the FTW title?

Why would anyone care what the arrogant, self righteous heel group thinks of them?

I think it's a dumb storyline, I wouldn't let go of my family's title.

Maybe it's due to the press conference when a reporter asked was the FTW title.nrought in a a Joke both TK and Hook denied it but hook looked very uncomfortable at the all in press conference I know that for sure when this was asked.

Fuck if Hook Joins BCC in place of Wheeler Useless then I'll be one happy guy.

So it's because of some stupid mark in the scrum? This is one of my problems with TK, he keeps trying to please the Twitter and Meltzer crowd, he doesn't need to.
