Kenny Omega's new entrance music which he debuted vs. Gabe Kidd at Wrestle Dynasty and on AEW Dynamite this week:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=akfueXN1rxU&pp=ygUVa2Vubnkgb21lZ2EgYWV3IHRoZW1l

For the Final Fantasy fans why yes it sounds this way for a reason.

Quote

"TAKE FLIGHT" created by the Final Fantasy 14 & 16 composer Masayoshi Soken, with vocals by Jason Miller and a special voiceover by the legendary Nobuo Uematsu

My wife's a ton more familiar with FF than I am but that's pretty fucking awesome.  The song itself is pretty nice though sounds a bit quiet for a wrestling theme hearing it last night.  "Battle Cry" was much more suited for a live arena setting but I adore the fact that Kenny got them to do his theme.

It’ll never compare to Devil’s Sky or Battle Cry. That’s just facts.

Cheers for the info, mate. Love to you both.

Kenny’s theme, it’s not a great fit for a regular TV wrestling show. It’s a bit too epic to be played in a smaller building, it belongs in a Stadium.

I'd say same about Roman Reigns WrestleMania XL theme which he's used ever since.

Kinda sad how wasted HOB was for most of their run, but it's definitely better for Brody for them to disband. Julia should stay with him for sure.

I worry that Buddy will continue to stay in that Beast Mortos/KOR tier where he's always there for a good match, but seldom a win. He would be better off if they kept him Brody together. Those two vs. Hurt Syndicate sounds like an All In level match.

Honestly, since there's no use arguing against nostalgia pandering and since Buddy and Brody are broadly beloved right now, put them in yellow and black striped gear and repackage them as The New Killer Bees. I'm pretty sure you could get B. Brian Blair to bestow his blessing. And doing the "ref is befuddled by which bee in in the ring" thing (with masks?) would be good for a chuckle with those two.

I sensed with how Ospreay talked him up post-match Buddy's gonna have a go at a singles title relatively soon.    Hopefully Brody too.  I'm really sad Malakai left but his wife's in WWE and I can only imagine the chaos their different schedules bring.

Kind of a tangent...

Back in the mid-90s there was an Indy tag team in Pittsburgh - twin brothers JB Destiny & CK Fortune - the Dead Ringers. Part of their act was doing the Killer Bees gimmick of switching in & out, but they could do it without masks because they were twins. 

AEW/ROH has the Renegade twins, and they don't do this gimmick. They had them pull a switcheroo once in a singles match out of no where as a throw-away, and they still lost the match.

So, it would be par for the course if they did an ironic Killer Bees gimmick with Brody & Buddy and it worked, when they squandered a chance to do the gimmick with actual twins.

Renegade Twins used to do it back in the Dark/Elevation days

Missing the Renegades now.  Charlette was out for most of 2024 with injury, but Robyn's singles run throughout the year was one of my fav AEW/ROH things, even though she lost most of the time. Now it's been a couple months since she's been on any of the shows.

Apparently the Von Erichs have been Trios champs for months now and had no contract.  

Well that's finally been corrected.  Condragulations VE Family you are now All Elite.

Please. Just let this man wreck people every week. Get God's Hate to play a preshow. If TK just offered Adam Cole up as a sacrifice to Brody, I would never say a bad word about AEW again.

AEW missed the opportunity to have Everytime I Die play live. Don't pass up the chace to have God's Hate play live.

I'm glad Malakai Black is leaving and he's done with all this cryptic BS and Tony Khan's shiny new toy syndrome. I guess all that stuff about being under contract for five years was a load of BS that Tony Khan perpetuated.

Posted (edited)

I've never got Malakai Black in AEW or as Aleister Black in WWE. My least favourite House of Black member. Put a rocket on Brody King and Buddy Murphy, especially King. Julia Hart is great too. House of Black never should have lost the AEW World Trios Championship after 5 months to The Acclaimed at AEW All In 2023. I still don't like the AEW World Trios Championship. Bungled from the start.

I was wondering where they were all this time. Maybe now they'll use them again.

Marshall at least had some sort of injury after their last match in September. He was at an indy show in October with his arm in a sling.

Is it the worst idea in the world to use this opportunity to reconfigure and reinvigorate Dark Order? A meaner / leaner / more serious Dark Order where Evil Uni is the mouth piece for Brody King?

Buddy, Brody, Julia, Silver & Reynolds as active workers. Uno strictly as the mastermind / manager. Merge the feel of HOB with the name and cashe of Dark Order. Scrap the comedy and push the gritty goth metalcore esthetic.

Mainly as a vehicle to elevate Brody. Because I think we all agree he's a special talent. But you could really use it to elevate everyone. Buddy, Silver & Reynolds trios champs. Or Buddy as TNT Champion. Julia back as TBS champ. Could be a good act all merged together.
