How is it that AEW owns ROH but the ROH women's title is in Impact? Do they not give a shit about it I'm guessing? Letting Impact hold onto it for a while?

I don't know, maybe they're returning the favor of having Kenny hold the Impact World title for 6 months. Admittedly Purrazzo won it before it became a Khan owned title but hey it counts now.

Good points. Everyone ended up in a worse spot. Just a bad move.
Scorpio is easily one of the best wrestlers on the roster. Crazy they did him like that. Sammy had his time as TNT champ - move him to something else.

But according to IWC, he has to be a champ, he's a pillar :rolleyes: THe AEW pillars thing is the dumbest shit I've seen in a long ass time. These are your future? Not Page/Cole/Wardlow/about 15 others that are better then most of their "pillars". To be honest, I'm ready to grab grub any time one of the "pillars" come onto the TV. Jungle Boy is the only one with a marketable future, Darby is a one trick pony that we've already seen a dozen times, but hey he gets his big win back against Andrade who desperately fucking needs wins to seem relevant. Actually I like MJF, but for the life of me other then running from Wardlow, I forget he's even in the company, why did he not get the TNT title a long time ago?

Miro coming back would be nice. He had a good thing going. I thought the Dan Lambert stuff was good too, especially when Paige stumbled over her words. Putting a belt on a heel is a good move, just not the move I wanted.

Miro was great as TNT champ, shame about his injury. I like the belt on a heel too, but fucking god Sammy isn't over, he's a spot monkey who can't/doesn't sell, can't talk, and has a punchable face. There are at least a dozen other heels you could have built up if Scorp was going to be jobbed out after a month. There was a story to be told with him staying champ for a while and Ethan getting jealous of the attention and turning on him at some point, otherwise why not put it on a legit guy that could hold it for a while like Andrade, Black, Christian (give him something to do), Archer, MJF, Hobbs, and even a handful of faces if you want to keep ATT heel.

Cody said in an interview that the pillars thing was overblown from a mjf promo. They have tons of young talent and those few weren’t chosen as sacred pillars of the company.

I'd love to see Jay go back to Black Machismo. Still one of my favorite gimmicks of all time. His impression was so great.

TBF the hybrid 2 haven’t been on AEW much. It’s a shame they got pushed out. But I guess it is what happens when your roster gets so large.

I'm good with them letting his contract expire. Evans is 40, and the wear and tear of that bumpy lifestyle caught up to him in AEW. He was a botch machine there, and really couldn't go at the level he used to. I hope they find a way to get a decent mouthpiece for Angelico and use him, I think he has something, just hasn't been challenged to evolve as a character in a long time. Dudes only 34, so there is alot of time left in his career, especially with the change to a submission wrestler, could be a fun out of left field BCC member if a guy like Danielson took interest in his technical abilities, who knows.

I thought this was well known.

It's always been the reason why he left WWF and Vince has never put him in the Hall of Fame.

With Slim Jim he made both companies money without ever appearing or wrestling.

There is no reason to fire him unless it's personal.
