    Danielson, Moxley and Cesaro in a stable each mentoring an up and comer like Garcia and Moriarty with Regal as their manager would make a killer stable.

    Eddie says Claudio doesn't have the balls to show up in AEW lol. If you've watched CHIKARA you'll know!

    If Cesaro does sign, I'd love to see him be TNT champion (I was thinking the same for Danielson) and they just have open challenges every week. The roster is so big, it'll be fresh matches for a long time.

    Brass ring ladder match Sunday week.

    That's one gimmick I'd rather they quietly dropped

    What’s worse than the NXT crowd that kept trying to get itself over??

    What happened to Mike Chioda? I was delighted to see him show up last year (thought he could teach the AEW refs how not to be noticed during a match) but I think he only did 1 or 2 shows.

    Tony on Busted Open today

     Khan saying he hopes to make the announcement on the March 2 episode of AEW Dynamite.

    "I've been talking a lot about a big announcement in the world of pro wrestling. Not only is there going to be a lot of great wrestling on the show...I promise you guys, I have a huge announcement coming. Nobody knows what it is it. It's going to be something very important in the wrestling business. It's not one particular piece of talent, it's something very special. I'm really excited about it, I believe it's something we'll be in position to announce on Wednesday. I'm pretty excited about that,"

    If this turns out to be something ****, he'll deserve the ridicule for hyping it up so much.

    A super show or finally an AEW streaming service with the Ring Of Honor back catalogue

    ROH? Bleh.

    Streaming service? Good business but I couldn't give a toss because I pirate everything anyway am happy with my current methods of watching wrestling.

    NJPW crossover? Seeing Okada face Bryan would be cool.

    Never buying from them again after the shat they sent to me for a Punk t shirt that was exorbitant in price.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,768 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Looks cool, but; "Turn shirt inside out. Wash on gentle, cold water. No bleach, Dry with low setting or hang dry for best results."

    Bloody hell that's a lot of distinct effort needed for a t-shirt!

    How do you know if the water is gentle or not? Am I supposed to get into the washing machine to find out? Just bung it in at 40 degrees and it'll be grand!

    Could it be a mistranslation of 'soft'? As in hard or soft water..

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,072 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Probably. I'll let you know when I'm out of the machine.

    If you're covered in limescale we'll know for sure

    MJF's feud with Punk is much better than his with Y2J, elevated him more, would love to see him have a world title reign this year before Adam Cole

    I reckon Tony has purchased ROH, he will then have access to their full tape library for streaming service and possible docs on Danielson, Punk etc and this would allow him to have some super cards.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,537 ✭✭✭ThePott


    The tape library would be great and all but what streaming service?

    ROH's tape library is niche if we're totally honest. Only so many people are going to watch old wrestling. Streaming wise, where could it go? It going to a wrestling streamer is hardly worth announcing. If it went to HBO Max surely the bigger get would be that AEW is going there.

    Documentaries on Danielson and Punk would be good but you can't exactly ignore their WWE tenures and probably won't get footage for it. Also where do you put them? AEW don't have a dedicated streaming service (afaik) it's Fite here, think it's B/R Live in the US.

    The Supercard thing doesn't work either cause all the ROH talent has been let go so anyone they wanted would just be a free agent.

    Unless TK has bought Ring of Honor to restart it and use it as some sort of development programme or another show (not sure we need one) I don't see how the ROH talk or rumours help. Maybe I'm missing something, I just don't get it.

    The Dynamite after Double Or Nothing will be live from The Forum in Los Angeles.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Buying the ROH brand and tape library wouldn't cost a fortune and if Tony gets a platform on HBO Max or another streaming service it would be a good addition to the last two years of AEW to bulk up content.

    ROH also own the rights to the PPV that started it all All In so in some way buying ROH would bring everything full circle for AEW.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,537 ✭✭✭ThePott


    That's what I'm saying though, the bigger news would surely be that AEW is going to HBO Max, that would be massive!

    Good point about All In though, hadn't thought of that. Could definitely be a reason to go after the tape library.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,074 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    Its not really a huge announcement though tbf, buying a tape library. It going on HBO Max would be, but outside that it's left with a NJPW show.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,537 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Exactly my point. As much as buying the tape library would be cool, unless there's something else attached to it like AEW going to HBO Max or ROH being relaunched for some reason, there's no major value in it, despite what some fans think. Certainly if that alone is the announcement it would be a major misplay IMO.

    Do AEW do house shows ?

    A UK/European tour with a 3Arena date (it would attract a few 1000 tbh) would be great
