Punk doing what he did wasn't a matter of "If" but "When", if it wasn't Perry who set him off it would've been something else. I think you are projecting. And if Tony Khan really believes that, why has Perry remained persona non grata in AEW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Be funny to know who the kids are, btw... hint hint) Death Match Kings (Necro & Mad Man Pondo) vs Anthony Franco & Matt Turner, Chikara Tag World Grand Prix night two. 19th February 2005. It's,not on YouTube, but it is on IWTV. So if you had a friend who had an IWTV, they could potentially watch it on the Discord).

JLowe Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Seeing some people on Bluesky advocating for AEW to sign Motor City Machine Guns. I’ve liked their work that I’ve seen over the years (hate their theme song though). But also I feel like the fact I’ve been seeing their work since the early 2000s is a big point against them, especially with the style they wrestle. Then again, they’re both in their very early 40s. Given the already very full roster, I’m not sure if I’d sign them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 So, clearly none of you have actually watched any MCMG matches recently. Neither of them has lost a step at all. If anything, Shelley is in better shape now than he was 10 years ago. They'd be a good get now. They absolutely still have it. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've loved everything I've seen from them over the past year or so. To my tastes they're every bit as valuable to the tag divsion as Okada to the Mens and Mercedes to the Womens. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazorbladeKiss87 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 MCMG could also potentially help out the younger teams in AEW and ROH. I would think there's a place for them on almost any roster right now. Veterans who can still tear it up in the ring. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zendragon Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 They would have been a great addition to a larger tag tournament, I did like what I saw of Shelly title run. You know what bring them in with the walking weapon as a trio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a good point, although at some point they need to actually push the youngsters instead of giving them hope matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I did watch the Necro/Pondo vs ROH trainees Chikara match. It's not a shoot. It's stiff, but it's a rookie discipline match. It's like watching 2003 Bob Holly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 (edited) I'd sign the MCMG in a heartbeat. If I were TK, I'd have them show up at Dynasty to confront whomever wins the tag titles, most likely FTR or the Bucks. I enjoyed their match with Jay Lethal against Wardlow & FTR. I think working with the MCMG could do wonders for teams like Private Party or Top Flight. Edited March 24 by Nice Guy Eddie 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Mercedes cool with him after he made SA jokes about her? that thought popped into my head at work today and i came to post something similar. re: MCMGs. i'm fully aboard the "sign them" train. they can both still go. still hoping we get MCMGs/FTR somewhere at some point.

Brandon Bones Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 It’s certainly a better investment than shelling out again to only use “The Final Countdown” twice. Not that I had any expectation of that. But the novelties of Bryan’s last run vs. the frugality of the day to day cost of running a major wrestling promotion. I’m honestly stunned the MCMGs haven’t really been in my orbit of conversation. What an oversight! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think there's a place for them on almost any roster right now. Veterans who can still tear it up in the ring. To this point: they're also guys who haven't appeared regularly on any TV outside of TNA, so their 'TV age' is a lot lower than one would assume, given their longevity. You're 100% correct on everything, but I want MCMG themselves to have a nice run before settling into that opener/vet role kind of currently filled by guys like Sydal and Daniels In a perfect world, MCMG is presented in AEW similarly to AJ Styles when he first arrived on WWE TV 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
