We can only hope Sting still holds a grudge for Doug helping blow out his knee at the Clash in 1990 and beats him up at the retirement show.

Casey Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 There’s a theory emerging on Reddit (yeah I know) that the Devil group is going to be Adam Cole, Britt Baker, Wardlow, Sammy Guevara and Jack Perry. The pillars (minus Darby, plus the one that Punk said took MJF’s place), his former bodyguard and longtime rival, and his “best friend”. Kind of hangs the Kingdom & Roddy stuff out to dry, but they (and by that I mean Roddy) are getting over as lovable buffoons so who really cares. I mean, numbers wise it would make sense. The Devils versus MJF, the Kingdom & Roddy. Lol, Blood & Guts will be here before you know it… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 surrounding an illogical Adam Cole heel turn with dudes like Wardlow/Jungle Boy would be a hell of a decision clearly the only way for this to end is to have MJF and his family take on Adam Cole Shawn Michaels and his Masked Knights at the Survivor Series 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That shit is when you have a mohawk and it's mid-growing-out and just the worst. I experimented with a lot of haircuts in my 20s but that middle gap between is just the worst. The worst possible example of this was letting my mohawk get cut into a Dave Dictor-from-MDC-circa-1983/Hare Krishna cut (bald on top and around the sides, tail in the back) and then let it grow out. I started a new job at a grocery store and a guy just laughed at me and said "nice mullet". Which I didn't realize, really, that was what I actually had growing on my scalp.

Craig H Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I still think the best move is to have Swerve be the devil. Make MJF think it's Cole. Hell, even do a segment where MJF says he knows it's Cole and that destroys their friendship. Maybe MJF even attacks Cole. Then do a segment where the devil finally appears on screen and says Cole is right, it's not him. Lights go out with MJF in the ring. Lights come back on. The devil hits a JML Driver on MJF, unmasks himself, and it's Swerve. And honestly, who cares if that looks like some heel shit to tear apart a dude's friendship and tear down the guy's world around him to break him down and isolate him to get a shot at his title. Swerve just broke into Hangman's house and did some vile shit then went on to beat the Hangman for a second time and the crowd now loves him. Fuck it. If the crowd wants to boo Swerve then let them. If they want to keep cheering him, then let them. Just don't do the obvious shit where it's Britt or Cole or both of them together. Plus, then you have the built in story of MJF trying to win back Cole as a friend. Nothing is more over in wrestling than friendships in this current era. People would go nuts for when MJF and Cole eventually reunite. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 there's really no good way for this Devil thing to actually work out, is there? they must have thought that they were gonna be able to turn MJF on Cole in August but their team just got over and they decided to roll with it and then Cole got injured 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 If there were any circumstance that ends up having Keith Lee and Swerve as a tag team beating the shit out of everyone, I'd love it. Just putting that out there, Coach. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shartnado Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) Alright, a very good episode here. I have to say that THIS version of Adam Copeland I can appreciate. First thing, kick in the balls! Yes! Rush getting a much needed victory and Jay White with a slightly surprising loss changes the complexion of the tournament a little bit and that's good. Moxley has now faced two of the easiest opponents of his league, while White's matches have been the toughest of the top guys and Lethal's have been toughest overall and the results reflect that. Eddie Kingston may have fucked up giving up those titles. Facing Danielson after losing the first match is a tough position to be in. Emi tried to get into a better position for the moonsault and it was nice for the commentary to sell it as her trying to roll away from it unsuccessfully. I don't know if I like Sting putting no one over during his entire AEW run, despite how entertaining he has been during it? I mean, if he beats everyone, so be it, but that should logically lead to a title match before it is all said and done, right? Yeah, he made Darby, but let's face it he is not going to survive trying to skateboard down Mount Everest, let's be real here! Dante looked good in his return, the injury shown from a different angle did NOT! Holy fuck! Next week's trios match should be good, too! MJF putting over Joe and going over the guys he himself has beaten was good. Joe stepped in immediately when the terrorists attacked MJF to protect his investment, but is obviously against ANY kind of tag matches that may mess up his much deserved main event match.

The Green Meanie Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I have to say initially I was skeptical after hearing about another tournament. However, this one has won me over quite a bit because A) there's a bunch of people in it that I'm interested in watching wrestle, B) there's going to be a lot of new and interesting matches in it, C) I love that I get to announce to my household that "EVERYONE is banned from ringside" and D) THANK GOODNESS THE ELITE ISN'T IN IT. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I've watched 8 or 9 hours of AEW/ROH TV over the last few days as I caught up on last week and it's been pretty much the AEW that I want, let me tell you. I could have used one of those crazy collision multi-man tags that go forever and a squash match or two on ROH that no one else would have wanted but me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisPBacon Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) Noticed a subtle hint that The Devil could be none other than TK, with Calibur mentioning whoever the Devil is, had taken control of the lights and other equipment. Maybe to throw the scent off Bay Bay, and not saying it would be the best idea, but nerd billionaire you sets to shape wrestling in his image, surrounding himself with his "pillars" isnt the worst idea. Also, as of note, the Devil has not been involved in any attacks as far as I remember. TK is probably itching to bring back his character from those Impact wrestling segments from a couple years ago. He looked like he was having a lot of fun. Edited November 30, 2023 by ChrisPBacon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
For Great Justice Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) I really dug that little bit of world building with the announcers discussing all that. It reminded me of Disney parking lot-era Nitro, and just isn’t something WWE does. More of that please.
