Matt D Posted March 17, 2023 Posted March 17, 2023 Anyone going to the house show this weekend? Mox/Claudio vs Bill/Moriarty Britt vs Anna Darby/OC vs Butcher/Blade are all fun matches that you definitely don't get to see usually. Darby and OC have never tagged before. Mox and Bill are old NXT roommates. Britt will get to try out babyface stuff against Anna. Plus the undercard will probably be full of some of the younger talents against each other. 2

I'm really curious about how they plan to use the house shows going forward. Is it going to be about putting on matches that don't make sense on TV? Getting the youngsters more reps? Trying some things out in front of a crowd? Practicing matches 'around the horn'? Some combination of the above? 2

And he's gone through your entire post history and knows what you thought about Joey Janela kidnapping Tully Blanchard in 2019. One of us! One of us! Edited March 17, 2023 by John from Cincinnati Forgot who kidnapped Tully, probably still wrong, you tell me! Or was it Marko Stunt who got kidnapped???

Just Adam Bay Bay Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 So why is Khan attacking Dave? I see what Dave tweeted, but it was about WWE to someone that asked about WWE. He never said AEW doesn’t pay for those things. I don’t think Khan could have seemed any more unstable if he’d tried last night. 1
Brandon Bones Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 I’m going out on a limb. But I think AEW is ripe to plow the fields of a big celebrity match. A celebrity of a certain athletic ability pitted against somebody in the locker room who can elevate it, hold it together, and would also be primed to take a rung up the ladder even if they had to job. I don’t know… maybe Wardlow. So I’m pondering a list of potentials that might suit the bill to really SELL the show. I admit though at 48 years old my awareness of the cultural zeitgeist is probably suspect. I’d have never considered a Logan Paul just because he isn’t in my GenXer orbit. You’ll see what I mean. First and foremost has to be Tom Brady. He really is the great white hope. His credentials speak for themselves and is a household name. Plus I think he has a price as a guy who hasn’t been scared of money. You DO run the risk of him going the way of Mayweather where the crowd sours as he makes baby face at the camera. After all, not everywhere is New England. Even my being pretty anti-football still allows me to recognize the gigantic marquee value having Brady’s name there. Antonio Brown - I know absolutely nothing of his athletic career other than he has bounced (or been bounced) from multiple NFL teams. I’m told he is a mix of Dennis Rodman and Brian Pillman in his wacky ability to color outside the lines. Honestly, I’m reading this more like a Charlie Sheen meltdown. Which doesn’t sell it any less to me in all its instability. I heard he was banging Brady’s wife too. Make it a tag match. Joe Rogan - An older guy for sure. But Jarrett could carry him to some classic Memphis horseshit. Make the figure 4 Joes finisher. Pay him an extra 10 bucks if he makes it look good. Shaq? - Maybe? We got that cliff hanger from before with the ambulance etc. Not sure what exactly to do with that absent Cody. LeBron - Again, famous name at that high water mark in athletics that should sell a stadium. Name brand. I have to be missing someone or many ones. 1

Raziel Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 Given the way Tony does stuff, we'll get a celeb match next Rampage, but it'll be someone half the audience never heard of. 3 1
John from Cincinnati Posted March 18, 2023 Posted March 18, 2023 Alton Brown six man with the Acclaimed vs undercard heels in some food-themed nonsense is also a way to go. 3 1 3

Tim Robinson is pretty big on the internet, so it would be a huge get to get the guy from the hot dog suit meme into a "I Think You Should Leave" escape-only Cage Match. 1 1

BrianS81177 Posted March 19, 2023 Posted March 19, 2023 Have they said if Taya is signed yet, or is she just in long enough to get fed to Jade? Either way I'm happy to see her get a shot on a big stage, I've always enjoyed her (especially anything and everything she's done with Rosemary)
