AEW - All Elite Wrestling (*Spoilers for Latest Show*)

Garcia/Moriarty is going to be quality, can't wait. Moriarty is so good, as good as Garcia, I can see him having a similar break through!

It was a taped Rampage so I'm guessing FITE just edited out the ad breaks.

If he does come to AEW, will it be as a cult leader? Dark Order is long past that whole cult thing apart from Five and Ten still bearing those numbers and wearing masks. Speaking of, why do they still have the whole "Join the Dark Order" thing when they don't seem to get any new members. Even all their minions seem to have left them.

And think I mentioned before, but I don't think it'll be as a Fiend type character since Tony is trying to avoid the supernatural stuff like the teleporting Matt. Which is why Bray would be better suited for Impact.

Not a fan at all and never understood the "creative genius" stuff that the wrestling media spouts. His last gimmick was crazy clown. Hardly original, is it? Although credit where it's due, Cena's Firefly Funhouse was very entertaining. But on the flipside of that, you have rubbish like the Rollins HIAC match with the cartoon mallet and this year's Mania match.

Don't think AEW need him. They have a quality set of main eventers now in the likes of Omega, Bryan, Punk, Cole, Moxley, Black and Black's hocus-pocus is the level they should stay at. Bray and his alternate dimensions etc aren't needed.

And if they're bringing him in to lead the Dark Order it seems like a waste of money. A presumably big contract for someone to lead a joke stable.

There is nothing stopping AEW giving talent time off rotating them in and out over a year. A lot of the talent are already allowed the work independent dates with the blessing of AEW and when travel around the world does start to open up without long quarantine times a talent exchange can happen properly.

Having a big roster gives you this. There has been calls for years from talent and fans to having an off season this is one way of doing it.

What do we reckon, Trios or a Women's tag? A new singles championship maybe?

Personally would love to see a Trios championship introduced. I think the idea of a trios title gets dunked on a bit because of how they have been booked by American promotions in the past, and that's fair and something I'd agree with. But if you look to Japan the Open the Triangle Gate championship has been contested in literally some of the best pro-wrestling matches ever so a Trios championship can definitely work. Or even recently, the NEVER Openweight six man and the Artist of STARDOM championship's in New Japan and STARDOM respectively were some of the bright lights for both companies during the pandemic era. I think it would work well with all the different units, similar to in Dragongate, and you know AEW would do it right.

I do think there is room for two more titles.

A Trio title and a No Limits Title similar to the X-Division & Never Openweight.

With the amount of groups a trios would make sense. Don't think they'd need a new singles title, not like they need a cruiserweight title or a title like the X division. Should maybe look at a tournament with all the new talent they've brought in.

Gives them an excuse to have one off matches like Bryan vs Jungle Boy, Ray Fenix, Dante Martin's etc etc without it needing a story or feud.

Would they need another singles title? World and TNT titles are enough. Though a X Division type title would be cool, who could be the first champion? PAC or Fenix? Sammy?

But think women's tag or trios would be a better next step. They have more women than NWA and Impact and both those brands have women's tag titles.

They've had loads of trios matches so that title wouldn't be out of nowhere, especially since they referred to them as trios matches rather than a 6 man tag.

One idea I wouldn't mind seeing them take from NXT was after the NA championship was introduced, they seemed to alternate which title took prominence on the show so we didn't get the NXT champion every week. So with more titles this would allow that.

I'd like to think it wouldn't overshadow it, and with The Young Bucks there, and guys like FTR, I'd say tag team would be in good hands.

To me trio titles would contested with tag teams that are not in the title picture atm (so Young Bucks will take a backseat after losing recently and Trios titles give them a different belt to target) or factions that either don't have a clear tag team or are large ( so Best Friends, Dark Order, any combination of Matt and one of the HFO tag teams, Pinnacle and Inner Circle etc). So like as of now you could have Bucks/Cole, Jericho/Sammy/Hager, MJF/Wardlow/Spears, Matt and Private Party, Best Friends, either group in Dark Order competing for it and you don't actually damage the tag team scene really. When Young Bucks are back in tag team scene, you can rotate them with guys like Death Triangle, PnP, FTR going into the trios scene.

The way I see rotating is that it keeps a roster fresh. People moan about Shida being on Dark exclusively but only makes the heart grow fond. The pop when she's on Dynamite will be for something meaningful.

That's the criminal thing about WWE over the last few years; for such a big roster it's shocking that they can put the same match on Raw week after week. It inevitably leads to stars getting stale.

I do hope Shida comes back on TV soon though. She's too good not to be. She should have been on Dark tonight but apparently match/opponent was so bad they cut it.

I know they're keeping her away from the title which is fine but need to find room for another women's match some week to get her on. If there's time for a Jade squash match, there's time for a Shida squash match.
