Worst thing about them is the camera work, they get some really bad shots at the worst times.

Lets all hail Kevin Dunn for the amazing work he does for the WWE....

I was being sarcastic, Kevin Dunn is worse than useless.

For those who watch, AEW have some of the best long term angles in the business and they have only been around less than 2 years.

As for the womens division...

Serena Deeb
Riho
Thunder Rosa
Britt Baker
Shida
Yuka Sakazaki

You can do a lot worse than to use that as a base, nevermind the younger talent who are still learning.

Either way though, unless they sign Alabamas number one luchadore, they aint worth ****.

I don't watch WWE, but sometimes check out clips on social media. The constant camera cuts, and zoom-cuts, make my head spin. And it diminishes any cool stuff the wrestlers do, because you lose sense of the physical context.

Yeah, as I said I think the talent is there now, and you picked out the best of them. I've just gotten a little frustrated that they're not showcasing them enough. At the start of the year, it really felt like the division was about to take off, highlighted by that incredible 'lights out' match between Britt and Rosa. But, with occasional positive blips, it's all been sunk again and relegated to the before-the-main-event death slot on Dynamite again.

It's really my only significant complaint of AEW, though.

And I kinda think The Master of The Tornado DDT might already secretly have a contract in his pocket (at least I hope so: the crowd reactions he's been getting lately are HUGE)

I agree Kevin Dunn is useless so are most of WWE management, but still polished in most areas, but IMO AEW Is no better as of yet they are still very much indie. this is why I dont watch much anymore. I'm hoping things will change and improve as I did when AEW first started but still waiting.

That is my option

Lol at WWE releasing Bray Wyatt. Moved his gimmick over to alexa, so I guess he's surplus to requirements now
AEW should snap him up ASAP, a bonifed superstar with a ton of natural charisma and knows how to work a crowd and a gimmick also he's only 32 so has a good 10 years+ left in him. Along with the signings of Bryan and Punk along with WWE's never ending bone headed booking and scripting AEW could be propelled into the leading wrestling organisation in the US.

I give up, everytime I think they are going to fix the issues they do something very stupid.
Can Vince just walk away, im sure he's gone senile.

They are keeping people who know nothing about wrestling and getting rid of the people that do, only using old known stars, some wrestlers are not allowing younger talent to get a shot, Does this remind anyone of WCW or is it just me.

They cant builds a storyline and the ones they manage somehow, get flushed away.
They had some of the best talents but every quarter to show more earning they fire them or making the mistake of not keeping people like daniel bryan.

And now Bray Wyatt.

They spend time building up people and then YOUR FIRED.
Some of who I was hoping would be the next big stars.
Buddy Murphy
Aleister Black

Tony Nese
Braun Strowman (over payed but they built him up to be a star)
Fandango &
Tyler Breeze
Killian Dain
Andrade
Mickie James ( I was hoping she would become a trainer)
Kalisto
Tucker Knight (it was a great tag team)

The only good thing they did was rehire Samoa Joe

I agree, if I was Tony I would be chasing after him and build a real dark order around him.


I would also want

Buddy Murphy huge star in the making - if he turns up at AEW I will know Tony is finally on the right track.
Tony Nese another great hire.
Braun Strowman Not to be missed if he does not ask for stupid money,
Fandango & Tyler Breeze - Great to rebuild the tag division
Mickie James - Great name and can help build the women's division.

I'd actively like to see Buddy in AEW, would be happy if Nese turned up, but am not fussed about the others. Including Bray, whose recent shtick isn't really my thing (though the Wyatt Family stuff looked goid)

I'd actually probably be disappointed to have Braun in, other than perhaps booked for a short term monster run. He'd just make the other big guys look small, whilst his in-ring skills are not really in keeping with the house style.

I'm hoping to see Ruby Soho (Riott) turn up as the 'joker' in the women's casino royale at All Out.

Braun was released in June, Brock's been out of contract and, apparently, not interested in coming back yet since last year's Wrestlemania.

Last video of Paul Orndorff, dementia riddled :(.

That really has to be one of the cruelest diseases there is, you live a life and don't remember really anything of it, you revert to a child like state, lose the ability to do the most simple things, just robs you of your dignity and makes your last years hard on your family.

Anyone even bother to watch these days? I barely even watch the highlights anymore the show is so bad. As for ppv's, pfft. The "big 4" are really the only ones that get my attention and more often than not they're a pile of crap and all.

Vince really needs to get ****-canned, the man has lost it, 75 years of age, drastically out of touch. Anytime he appears on tv he has so much make up on he's starting to resemble a ventriloquists dummy.
