That’s a possibility. They are already producing the show. I’ve got this weird feeling that they might just keep Tuesdays and give it a new name, hiring new crew members to work Friday or just make that a new TV date. If AEW gets a Saturday or something, I could see them taping something after SmackDown. That might be a little late for kiddies though. I dunno. That just seems like the most “Vince” thing they could do to drown AEW out. I could see that being where they put some smark favourites. Could see that being the Becky Lynch/Daniel Bryan/Rusev/Johnny Gargano show. For talent that gets accidentally over or that Vince doesn’t quite get.

From some angles, Hangman Page makes me wonder if he's the result of Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler having so many matches together they somehow spliced and created an entity that looks like their offspring.

I kinda agree with the first quote, but the second one gave me a chuckle.

I seriously couldn't tell a handful of guys in ROH apart for a time, and those guys were Adam Page and all three guys in The Kingdom (Cole, Taven, and that one guy married to Maria. I remember his name now, but I'm sticking to the joke). A good part of Page breaking away from that is in no small part thanks to BTE, but with and without it, he has grown beyond voiceless lackey and been given room to breathe. If situations were different, I could have made the same mistake with interchanging he and Chase Owens in Japan. Instead, he has succeeded in making himself stand out.

Cody mentioned during the rally, but he's said again that win-loss records are going to matter in AEW and he and the Bucks are still kicking around ideas for how to implement that. He hinted there might be some sort of a formal ranking system, or G1-style tournaments that are points-based.

I appreciate the impulse, but they've got to be careful that win-loss records and rankings don't inhibit them and book them into corners and such. Might just be a better idea to keep people protected and if you are pushing someone, don't job them out to your mid-card champion or whatever.

Apparently WWE managed to fool themselves big time in regards to signing Jerry Lawler to a new deal with the company. His previous deal expired on January 10 and it didn't seem like they were going to renew prior to AEW's official debut announcement.

WWE assumed AEW was going to make an attempt to sign Lawler and rushed to get a deal done first just to keep him away from AEW.

Turns out AEW was never interested nor did they ever contact Lawler and WWE is now stuck paying him for another 2 years out for even more money than his previous deal due to their pettiness.

Yeah, I remember Gabe Sapolsky saying several times that EVOLVE was going to be W-L centric but he kept backing down from it probably because it becomes a bit prohibitive from a booking standpoint.

It definitely works for a Round Robin type thing, the G1 in particular does a great job of setting up programs for the champions. But a constant awareness of the W-L records I think would be hard to do unless they are super creative with it. Maybe the months in between each big show is a new "season" where everyone's record starts anew? I dunno.

Dude, it's a promotion that had its logo unveiled, like, just over two weeks ago. Who do you expect to be into it right now? Ooh, a Kardashian hasn't gotten the logo tattooed onto her yet. Wtf?

It is fine if they can find a way to present hard records well, but I'm hoping it was more of a shot at 50/50 booking to where nobody cares about anyone where nobody is better in anyone else in what is supposed to be a world of competition.

I've always hated the "wins don't matter" sentiment. Yeah, it's scripted, but it still matters... if not, then what is the point of watching? Why crown champions if your entire roster is on equal footing?

A Portuguese woman named "Shanna" has signed. Cody said in an interview that he signed four people that day. She may or may not have been one of them.

You are all vastly overestimating.
So what? Let people be excited.

I honestly don't know what the perception of them is supposed to be before they announce a televsion deal and we even know what the roster and card of their first show is going to look like. People are more optimistic about this than other start-ups, like, say, GFW, which was in a similar boat, because of the people that are involved and the implication that the money is huge, which is such a big factor with something like this.

You're replying to someone who doesn't even know who 90% of the NXT call ups are each time.

Podcast, YouTube channels, whatever discussing AEW that are showing up in my news feeds at an alarming rate compared to other wrestling news just caught my eye. Granted, it is the new hot thing. We'll see, I suppose.

Jericho's new podcast is all about All Elite. The only real news from it is that Tony Khan paid for his private jet at All In so it wouldn't clash with a Fozzy date and that Jericho wanted to work with Tanahashi and Gedo suggested Naito.

I can't speak for anybody else, but it is not AEW that is annoying. It's the level of hype that some fans are giving it. They have decided this is the greatest thing ever, and can't even entertain an actual discussion.

I made a post about fanboys rallying around the idea that WWE wouldn't let 20 people acting like assholes into Smackdown who also had AEW match on.

Instead of having a conversation that MAYBE it was about the way the people were acting and not what they were wearing, a mod edited my post into a poo poo joke.

That is the perfect example of why people are annoyed with all things AEW already.

Will I watch it when it starts, of course. Do I hope they succeed and put on great shows, of course. Do I need to be blindly loyal to a company that has not had a single show and argue with anyone who isn't, of course not.

I’d wager most of the people who are geeking out over it a bit too much are doing so because they are just so exhausted with the wwe product letting them down. I’m not going to get angry or even annoyed by it. Let them be happy. Doesn’t affect my life in any way.

Just want to make sure they have a fair chance. If the fans overhype themselves it'll be a failure which will be blamed on WWE and never on the fans for overhyping it.
