(BP) Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Serpentico is holding onto the bottom rung because he’s the one carrying the ladder. Absolute king. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still been on the blogs and what not. Rocky being around for NJPW stuff just gave Chuck even more time off if anything and it allowed Trent to keep wrestling in tags for the last few weeks. Chuck is fine. I'd prefer Chuck and Orange as a team with a straight man/comedy guy set up to Chuck and Trent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kafkonia Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I think the problem Alan Five-Angels ran into was how badly the Dark Order split went with the crowd. It felt like he was going to be a focal point, what with his unmasking and all. But then the bookers saw the writing on the wall and called the split off, and that cut off whatever story they were intending to tell. Personally, the mask worked for him, and taking it off might have been a mistake. Not because he's unattractive (he's a bit of a cutie, though I don't like wrestlers wearing dangly earrings in the ring) but because it gave him something that set him apart from all the other athletic smaller white guys on the roster.

AxB Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 According to the match graphic, the entrants in the Royal Rampage are (left to right): Kazarian Silver Orange Cassidy Rush Hangman Takeshita Penta Hobbs Starks Keith Lee Swerve Darby Blader Dustin Rhodes Butcher Caster Nese Matt Hardy Dante Brody King Although debuting a surprise entrant on a taped show is a bad idea, so no hassle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is correct, I can confirm. Hobbs/Nese start it off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm watching them call Jay White/Chris Bey vs Briscoes with Good Brothers in the booth with them on the Impact Pluto channel, and I'm enjoying their banter quite a bit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Moneghetti Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Jeff Hardy is pleading innocent to the dui charge, so anyone who was expecting him to admit he needs help and take responsibility, well, fooled again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed the DO split was a storyline paid off exactly as planned for the Brodie anniversary show? Angels did very well with his limited experience. His age should work in his favour. That said, he seems to have hit his AEW ceiling. His mic work is unestablished if inconclusive. HIs character work seems to be based on a mask and then a hat (ugh), so some adjustments ought to be encouraged. His in ring is solid, but could greatly use the kind of seasoning perhaps best found by spreading his wings. Indies and abroad for Alan, and I suspect it will be a good thing for him. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
