matt925 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Takeshita was pulled from King of Indies which is November 19…same date as Full Gear. So does our boy get a lowly multi man match, or a nice juicy singles match? Not coincidentally this will be the third full gear I miss due to being at a wrestling show. First year new japan (ligers final match in the us). Second year was the pandemic so I saw that. Third year new japan and this year I’ll be at king of indies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Interestingly, Jericho posted that he'd be coming out to Judas only on Thursday as he's working the Lionheart gimmick on Wednesday. The idea that singing along to Jericho's themesong is likely a legitimate draw to get Canadians to go out to a show that they don't even have airing in the country is a fairly ballsy move. Here's where I stand on Rampage this week, and I could well be wrong. They've announced almost nothing for it despite ticket sales not being great. I'm pretty sure this means the Elite is coming back on Wednesday and a match stemming from that will main event Thursday, with Kenny in Canada as the draw. Just a gut feeling due to AEW's usual business practices. Maybe I'm wrong. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Going by last reports on the fallout of the Gripebomb, everyone's lawyered up and no one suspended is coming back any time soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Wilson Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 It doesn't make sense that just because there is a pending lawsuit possibility (which may be true) that Omega and the Young Bucks can't wrestle on TV. Litigation can take literal years, especially if corporations are involved, the idea that they won't be able to wrestle until it is all settled is illogical to me since there is no clear correlation between the two. When they are on TV they are entertainers, not EVPs. Now obviously it would be very dumb to have them on TV and making any references (playful or not) about the incident, it should be completely ignored. The only way that "rumor" makes sense if it is Omega or the Young Bucks suing AEW, in which case maybe both sides agreed to not have them on TV until it is settled (or buyouts are completed). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 ALSO, if they did sign Renee, they should have her come out as a surprise with a Tron and everything to open the show and welcome everyone. I bet she'd get a colossal Saraya level pop in Canada. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutler, nakazawa, buck all came back after one week. They were determined to have no part in the fighting and were just trying to break things up. Total silence on everyone else. I hope Kenny gets his moment in Canada, that would be super lame for him to miss it if he was relatively innocent in all this. Perhaps he wasn’t. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakk_Sabbath Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 If they ever wanted to expand it to a trio, I think Spears would make a nice addition to the Tony Nese/Josh Woods team. I'd also like to see him catch a beating from The Firm to wrap up the MJF/Pinnacle stuff, kind of a Beefcake/NWO redux 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizium Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I'd be happy with him in Stokeley's group. Him and MJF have good chemistry and there's no reason they wouldn't still interact. He's such a fun stooge 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he wasn’t. This is what I've been thinking about going by that one pic of Kenny gaming and the bitemark showed on his arm Everyone at the time was saying that it had to be from Ace which got me thinking about where on the arm the bite was, like was the rumor about Kenny trying to crossface Ace legit? Head lock maybe? Like for all the speculation about the bite, the bite being on the inner arm, not that I'm trying to play detective or anything, but like what could Kenny have been doing to Ace to get bit on that spot? /Wild speculation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most interesting thing is that he wanted to and was able to agent a match recently. I'd be really curious to know which one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
