I'm really struggling to keep up with AEW - not enough time - and I'm skipping through many stuff, but there's one thing I just can't deal with... AEW's insistence to portrait Sammy Guevara as face and Dark Order as heels is just mindboggling.

I still wanna see Hangman reunite with Silver and Reynolds. Let them rebuild their friendship and build up Hangman once again who clearly lost his way. I know Silver and Reynolds are way down the card (if they even make it onto a card) but they are good and funny enough too warrant tv time and side by side with Hangman they could clearly regain enough credibility to challenge for tag team gold and win trios gold together with Hangman. Behind Best Friends never winning gold, one of AEWs biggest feel-good-misses still is that Silver-Reynolds-Hangman didn't win the trios titles together. -
Man, do I not care for CEO Moné. I don't think there's anyone on the roster getting tv time I want to watch less. Jericho is kinda funny atleast. Rocky Romero sure is one of the most dangerous men in the game if the game is losing every match you have. I'd have prefered Jack Perry as new "undeserving" TNT Champion over another kinda-tournament and ladder match. Okada's fake crying and stone faced reveal was the highlight of the show.

I hope the angle is just a way to write off Tony Khan as Tony Khan and in a few months Luis Fernandez-Gil returns as Tony Khan... -

I'm already looking forward to Dark Order building up Hangman again after this heel run. -

I hate how fast TK always makes matches official. I'm starting to think that he knows beforehand what the wrestlers will throw out. -
That video is clearly missing a statement from Brain Gremlin.

Here I am, watching Royal Rumble once again, like every year. The only thing from WWE I still watch although I once again don't really know why. It's not like I hate watching it but it's, well, boring. I'm just interested to see how WWE is doing. Like seeing a long lost friend but after talking a few minutes you just know why you drifted apart and don't hang out anymore. I was bummed to see Asuka getting eliminated so unceremoniously and I thought Chelsea getting smashed by Nia and Piper was quite funny. I still really really really hate the way WWEs commentary sounds (the whole presentation feels) like a corporate AI wrote the script with maximum marketability as highest priority. The time between the end of the womens rumble and the start of the title fourway felt like an eternity. Really wasn't invested in the match because why would I? As if Reigns would loose the title. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn are awesome. I sometimes think about just watching their stuff in WWE and skip everything else. Really bummed that Owens didn't enter the rumble and Zayn was eliminated way too early. This really isn't a WWE-only thing, but I hate all the obvious time-wasting, laying around and stupid pushing-each-other-around-the-turnbuckles. I get that booking a coherent match with so many wrestlers can/will be a nightmare but it feels like WWE just wants to push their statistics of who eliminated the most people (hence so many wrestlers doing nothing until they can all be eliminated by person x) and who stayed in the match the longest time. Everytime I hear the banger theme of Shinsuke Nakamura I think back to his awesome debut against Sami Zayn. Adrenaline in my soul, something something Cody Rhodes! I came to see a Kofi Kingston rescue spot. What the hell? Think of something. I don't care. If he's not fit enough to do something athletic then do something clever/funny. Pat McAfee-Spot was afwul. JD McDonagh looks like he activated a big-head-cheatcode. R-Truths hot tag was nice. I'm really drawing a blank here but did WWE always exclude wresters from other matches in the rumble? I feel like the rumble could have used some more star power and Styles, Orton, Knight, Paul and Owens are right there. Why wouldn't they enter the rumble? Although I'm fully out of the WWE loop so maybe there was enough star power here and I just don't know. Also, I haven't watched WWE for years and I still knew Cody or Punk were gonna win the rumble ... I think that's not good but I'm not sure, maybe it's just a case of the obvious choice is the right choice. So, Cody Rhodes never main evented a single PPV of AEW and now he wins the Royal Rumble and will be headlining WrestleMania for the second time in a row... does that mean that in kayfabe AEW is the better promotion? Tuning into the generic themes discussion: just give every theme some distinct opening sound. Like Bret Harts screeching for Natalya so the crowd can immediately go mild.

Am I the only one who thinks current Hangman is a quite boring generic ass-kicking babyface? I get that you can't have him be the anxious millennial cowboy forever but his character really regressed from beeing nuanced and stereotype-questioning to I-wanna-punch-you-bland. And I still think that his story with Dark Ordner wasn't finished, ended far to abruptly and it's a terrible idea to have Dark Order be heels. It's a shame we haven't gotten a Hangman, Silver, Reynolds trios run yet. Guess I just have to wait for the downfall of Hangman and hopefully Dark Order pick him up once again.

I just wanna see Hangman go back to Silver and Reynolds. He was about to kill and man and still lost to someone who broke into his home and threatened his child. Hangman needs to find himself and AEW hasn't been the same since they parted ways. Hangman-Swerve was great, but I really don't like Swerve winning this way. In general, I'd rather see the babyface win this kind of match, but if you let Swerve win, then let him without inteference by Cage. You shouldn't win a Texas Death Match by inteference. People intefering in Texas Death matches should be fired.

I'm really sad to see Hangman ignore the real reason he wasn't happy after defeating Moxley in a Texas Death Match und and reuniting with his "friends" of the Elite - because he 's a shitty person that f*ing abandoned his real friends Uno, Silver and Reynolds. That wasn't cowboy shit, that was shit cowboy! -
I was really rooting for FTR Hair to finally nail the Bucks with that Springboard 450. Maybe next time.
-
I for one am mighty happy to see some more Hangman and the Dark Order story continuation. Such a great story for such a long time and then AEW dropped everything once he won the title and completely forgot the whole core of Hangman's journey to the title was about finding real friends along the way. He just went back to the Bucks because why not.

Yes! I'm all in for a Trent's Mom on a Forklift match.

I like him and I skip everything he does on BTE.
