    Honestly can’t believe I’m watching Bryan Danielson wrestle Jeff Jarrett in the year 2024.

    Seems like everything Logan Paul does is a pyramid scheme; so he probably got someone to front enough money for TKO to not be able to say no (especially since UFC just took them on as well)

  8. Osprey has to use the tiger driver on MJF at All In, right?

    So Ospreay just dropped the title to MJF do we think he's going to take it back that soon at All In?

  11. WWE interested in signing Lucha Bros, Ricky Starks and Daniel Garcia who still hasn't signed a new deal.

    HHH should really consider signing that young up and comer named Chris Jericho instead

    Tony would pay Jericho too much to keep him

    I love Jericho but that man should retire.
     
  14. He’ll eventually go back to WWE to fulfill his ego with a (deserved) HOF nod. Then we will know peace

    can't be made fun of Prestigious

    the worst part about Jericho (other than actual things) is if he could be like any number of other vets working random "dream" matches on Rampage and it would rule and he would get the kind of love he craves. i don't know why he wants to work one midcarder for four months at a time when other guys would be bangin' out sidequests

    Catching up on the weeks wrestling… nice promo from Priest on JD

    John // OC now, OH forever.

    Ego, mainly. Look at the roles of guys like Jarrett or Dustin Rhodes. Perfectly content to show up every now and then and help the younger guys grow, but Jericho is on TV weekly eating up 10-15 minutes of the show.

    Fun fact: Jericho has lost two singles matches this year.

    Im torn; feels like theres a MUCH deeper way they could go where Ospreay loses because of Callis and Fletcher and he really does a true babyface arc for the title (hell, make it the build to Ospreay v Danielson for Worlds End)

    But if you're trying to pop the Wembley crowd, then 100% it has to end with that. Though I feel like the odds are higher that MJF hits it on him.

    Ricky was obviously always gone. Daniel Garcia would be a shame; both because he'd get buried deep in WWE, and because I think he's got real potential to be a dude at that Christian/Joe "credible in a world title match, and can carry any midcard belt at any time" level in the next year or so. He's probably the perfect guy to win the Owen next year.

    I get your point but just a few months ago Dustin was (randomly) wrestling for the title and wrestling Keith Lee (I think) in matches that went like 15-20 minutes and seemed to piss off everyone lol

    If memory serves, he was the random fill-in for Keith Lee at Worlds End after he wasnt cleared; and then got used in Lee's spot a few more times (v Christian and v Joe).

    Jericho thinks he’s AEW’s Rock & that he needs to show up every week because he’s the most recognizable name. I don’t think he’s even taken a couple months off just so fans kind of miss him.
