Now let me talk about the Miro shit. So the "sheets" have been claiming for a while that the only reason Miro's been AWOL is because he didn't want to do some of the plans AEW had for him and so they're just waiting to agree on a new angle.
I was skeptical of these reports, but the guy has been gone for ages and there's literally millions of ways you can use Miro. Is he really being a next level pain in the ass shooting everything down? Did he turn them down so many times AEW just said fuck it, stay home and get back to us when you tell us what you want to do? Maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle.
The latest rumor is he was pitched a program with Hangman in September which would've seen them be the final two at the Grand Slam battle royal, Hanger would win but Miro would beat the fuck outta him and they'd have a program set up going into Full Gear. And Miro said no.
I take all of this with a grain of salt, but let me just hypothetically assume it's true. In that case I think it reflects poorly on everyone.
For Miro, it's like....I love the guy, but if he thinks he's too good to work with one of the top positioned guys in the company, I don't know what he was expecting. That's the kind of shit you do if you're trying to get fired, which in Miro's case would be a mere few months after he signed a new 4-year deal.
But for Tony Khan...just kinda an example of how he can't seem to handle the prospect of not being everyone's friend. Maybe he thinks it's better for morale to not book people who aren't happy, but how is giving a guy on a six figure salary an endless vacation a punishment? It's wrestling, you're never gonna make everyone happy. Grow a pair and tell the guy to come in and do his job, or cut him loose.
TLDR: Miro's been gone for 8 months and whatever's going on, both sides should've had ample time to sit down, sort their shit, and figure out a path forward one way or the other.
