He’s just a gymnast. And he’s not really a main event draw. I’ve seen him wrestle live, against Cody and he was noticeably not holding up his end of the match.

That was a long time ago though, no?

He has changed as a performer since then. For what is worth, I’m leaning towards your camp as well.

Especially early on I just never saw it with him. It wasn’t until last year that I kinda got the appeal but I’m definitely not in the bandwagon that considers him one of the best wrestlers today.

It could very well have been Ronda @GC-Maniac

Perhaps. Would be weird to have her on the ROH tapings and then sign her two days later Full Gear.

Kinda spoils the whole thing. I think it’s a separate signing.

Anyone planning to watch Full Gear? AEW TV is dog shit but the PPVs do usually end up being at least solid if not good/great.

I’ll watch the repeat tomorrow. If it’s on the Firestick.

Didn’t manage to watch it live, probably for the better.
Skimmed through it this morning.

This show wasn’t really for me.

I’m so unsensitized by all the gore, blood in almost every match and all the spotfests.

That main event was another Super Cena inspired bullshit, which in retrospect makes that shit look normal now.
From one of the most compelling characters in wrestling, MJF has now become one of corniest/campiest guys in the business.

TK can’t book, simple. How anyone can enjoy constant blood and gore in every match in 2023. I know TK liked ECW but holy shit. Blood just isn’t necessary in 2023 unless it pays off in a big storyline.

I recently watched the latest season of DSOTR, and seeing someone drinking their opponent’s dripping blood was not only disgusting but actually disturbing.

What’s worse, it’s all meaningless as every other match had blood and knowing the booking, neither Swerve or Page will be doing anything worthwhile after this.

Swerve will get Wardlow’ed and Page will slot right back into the yearly Elite high school drama.

The fuck happened to MJF? This version of him sucks

I’m out the loop, I thought he was a heel. Why he crying and bigging up his opponents? :joy: Why is it presented in such a lame way?

Because A-E-Dubya

He’s been a babyface since he started a tag team with Adam Cole and it’s the campiest shit since PG John Cena and Hulkamania.

Happy “Randy Orton ain’t done yet” day!

Is he back tonight?

Apparently, it was leaked a couple weeks ago.

Team Cody will have another member and that will be Orton.
They want to reveal before the PPV because they don’t want to go to Survivor Series with a mystery man angle and everyone thinking it’d be Punk.

If we can make it to this time next week without Punk appearing I think we’re safe from his bullshit returning to the big stage in any meaningful way.

Obviously but I wouldn’t have put it past Tony Khan to not have re-signed him and have the world title on hin like he did with Moxley.

He did it with the TNT Title and Cody too.
