Shartnado Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 During the Death Triangle vs FTR feud a few years back, was there ever a PAC vs Cash Wheeler singles match? I know PAC and Dax had a highly praised match back then, but watching the FTR&Eddie vs BCC made me think I'd REALLY want to see those two go at it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, amazingly Cash has only had three AEW singles matches, all losses: Jay Lethal, Jeff Cobb and Dax himself during the Owen qualifiers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still unsure whether they're deliberately portraying the members of FTR as terrible singles wrestlers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems pretty clear that Dax in singles is a way to showcase his strong skillset and be a credible win for the Singles wrestlers he faces. When Dax starts getting squashed and it doesn't lead to him getting a return tag team win you might have a case for the company that pays him/pushes him as a top star 'delibrately portraying' him as a 'terrible singles wrestler'.

Technico Support Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Eh, he's a tag team wrestler. He should get beaten by skilled singles wrestlers. Of course, two singles wrestlers thrown together should be beaten, the majority of the time, by an established tag team as well. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a big believer in the (Bill Watts?) philosophy that a regular tag team should always defeat two regular singles competitors thrown together in a one-off. Conversely, when a guy that regularly works tag matches works a singles match against a regular singles competitor, the tag guy should lose. Booking logic. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the post above yours To add to this, a GREAT way to build your tag belts into something to be taken seriously and maybe main event shows: every once in a while, maybe on a big TV show, put your world champ and secondary champ against the tag team champions in a non title challenge match or, shit, if those two singles two champs are closely aligned, in a tag title match. Then have your tag champs beat them clean. Edited March 1 by Technico Support 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I would have no issue putting my tag champs over 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 You prob also would have to factor in the face/heel status of those involved and how you book the finish, either way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
