the impaler variation of the dirty deeds was nasty

 

Hahahaha wow

 

I also loved Okada turning around expecting a Jericho sneak attack.

Im kind of amazed I never saw that variation in WWE. Even though DD was pretty protected, you'd think he'd have dropped that one in his feud with AJ or something.

 

This is perfect

 

Imagine being the Revival or Luke Harper seeing Jon Moxley win the IWGP North American Title

 

Say you're AEW, and the following list of names come up. Who are you going after and how high on the card are you promising?


Aiden English
Akira Tozawa
Apollo Crews
Bo Dallas
Cedric Alexander
Chad Gable
Curtis Axel
The Revival
Luke Harper
EC3
Eric Young
Anderson & Gallows
The Ascension
Mike and Maria Kanellis
No Way Jose

 

Revival and Luke Harper and that’s all I’d want off that list, tbh.

 

I've got Revival, Luke and Apollo Crews. I think he's such a physically gifted guy and WWE hasn't tried hard enough to make him a thing.

 

Gable. Would be dynamite in AEW.

 

I very much love a lot of guys on that list but I think some people in aew already have stuff that people on that list wouldn’t improve on (EC3 for instance is great, but how much different is he from MJF? Cocky, handsome heel who is better than everyone).

Gable would be great in aew too

 

Honestly, I'd just pick the Club or the Revival. I'd rather have another tag team to add than just a singles wrestler.

 

I thought about the club but it's kinda odd having them go to AEW without also having Finn or AJ. If one of those guys joins in then it's:

- Finn with a "We built this faction and then you guys just let it die" kinda thing
- AJ with a "You guys turned on me, i'm here to make you pay" kinda thing

The Club by themselves have no history with the Elite guys really and it'd just be kinda odd. I'd much rather The Revival.

 

I feel bad for the entire tag divison in WWE right now. It's basically non existent now

 

Anderson and Gallows were both in the bullet club at the same time as the Bucks, Anderson was even the leader at the time

 

Id want the first two to build out further on a mid-card/X-Division style area...and I'd want the latter two to pad out the tag division. SCU isnt gonna last full-time, so having The Club there as the enhancement talent would be good.

And I'd sign him to get rid of JR, move Excalibur to the Mauro role, and let Aiden be the heel commentator while Marvez does the filler Byron/Percy/whoever face role. AEW commentary booth is fucked currently because JR and Excalibur do the same thing (and JR does it far worse these days).

Though really I'd be rooting for Impact to fold and Callis to come in instead.

 

The Revival and Gable are the only three guys honestly. Harper is great, but probably not as valuable

 

Moxley match was awesome. It has to be hard to go from years of WWE style to this type of match. Moxley did great. Jury is still out on how he will be as a worker, cant have all matches in the style he had for this match. Exciting and cool stuff though.

 

He's also over af in Japan

 

Only complaint, too much biting

 

Biting is probably foreplay to Moxley. Just wait til he brings out the tacks and bardbed wire.
