Wrestling Thread (WWE, AEW, etc)

Are you guys going to all out in Chicago?

Just saw this. Damn TK out here signing erryone

Damnit ALL OUT needs to get here, same with that Sept 22 dynamite where Bryan is supposed to debut.

Punk used Cult Of Personality in UFC.



I just hope he goes back to this

So I hear some on some websites saying that if Punk & Bryan sign, that Mox should turn heel, ehh, I don't like that idea, now he's gonna be like Omega and The ELITE? I mean they'll have a stacked roster, but I see the top guys like this, in no order.

Faces(Singles):

Adam Page
Jon Moxley
CM Punk
Bryan Danielson
Cody Rhodes
Darby Allin
Chris Jericho
Brian Cage (Clear he's turning face after Taz's screwjob last week)
Christian Cage
Eddie Kingston
Sammy Guevera
Orange Cassidy
Jungle Boy
Dustin Rhodes
Jake Hager
Sting

Heels(Singles):

Kenny Omega
MJF
Malakai Black
Miro
Ricky Starks (Dude is a star IMO)
Powerhouse Hobbs
Ethan Page
Scorpio Sky
Matt Hardy
Andrade El Idolo
QT Marshall
Shawn Spears
Wardlow

Faces(Tag Teams):

Santana & Ortiz
Evil Uno & Stu Grayson
Alex Reynolds & John Silver
Brian Pillman Jr. & Griff Garrison
Chuck Taylor & Trent
Top Flight
Jurassic Express
Moxley/Kingston

Heels(Tag Teams):

The Young Bucks
The Good Brothers
Private Party
The Butcher & The Blade (When The Butcher returns from touring, as he has his own rock band)
FTR
Angelico & Jack Evans
Sky/Page

I'm not quite sure where to put Death Triangle(Penta, Fenix & PAC) as they seem to be feuding with Andrade, who's a clear heel, and it seems like he's hinting at LIJ coming over from NJPW, like Naito/Sanada(IWGP Tag Champs), Takagi(IWGP Champ), Bushi & Hiromu, and then Archer, they all kind of seem like tweeners to me.

What I think would put AEW over the top is if, indeed Punk signs, so does AJ, and also the wild card at ALL OUT is Tessa Blanchard, as it's a Women's Battle Royale, to go with Baker, Anna Jay, Tay Conti, Shida, Riho, Statlander, Penelope Ford, Red Velvet, Thunder Rosa, Serena Deeb, Emi Sakura, and Yuka Sakuzaki. Still have a long ways to build the women's division up, they're stacked in mens singles & tag divisions, need more women, hope the girls FKA The IIconnics join AEW, since Peyton Royce is married to Spears.

I listen to the IIconics podcast every week and they really don't sound like they're interested in wrestling any time soon. They may be keeping their plans to themselves but it sounds like they really want to try acting before having kids.

Oh, didn't know that, I remember post release, the report was they'd like to continue as a tag team, just AEW or IMPACT makes most sense, IMPACT has tag division, and Spears/Royce are married, plus the AEW/IMPACT relationship.

I'm so anxious for ALL OUT now, if Punk did sign with AEW, and say after the Omega/Page match, Omega wins by cheap tactics as usual, lights go out, Cult of Personality plays, lights come up Punk is behind Omega, I so want Omega/Punk and Omega/Danielson, then maybe a few weeks later at the Sept 22nd Dynamite event, The ELITE are surrounding Punk, lights go out, The American Dragon is there when lights come up, some sort of team up between Punk & Bryan, maybe start out challenging The Bucks for the belts.

Or maybe like some have said, maybe Cult of Personality hits, but it's a joke by Omega and The ELITE, only for Living Colour to perform it live, and Punk shows up.

T-bar & mace

Wait, they're still doing the RETRIBUTION thing? or did they just not change their names back? T-Bar & Mace, who came up with them? Vince? Dunn? Pritchard? The 3 amigos? Nah, more like the 3 Stooges.

Raw is garbage again. It had a nice one week run...

https://comicbook.com/wwe/news/wwe-karrion-kross-supposed-to-lose-again-wwe-raw-jeff-hardy-covid-19/

But it turns out that wasn't WWE's original plan. Kross was, at one point, advertised to take on the former WWE Champion in a rematch and, according to Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp, he was booked to lose yet again.

Ross noted that, "several members of creative, and even more of the roster were baffled by the idea to beat Kross once, let alone a second straight week." Hardy was pulled from the show after testing positive for COVID-19.

Lol

Tony Khan did a Q&A with the NY Post :

Q: Speaking of the next two months, have you signed and/or talked to any former WWE champions, one of which likes to drop pipe bombs and the other one is the leader of a movement?

A: I have no comment on those, but those are good questions but I can't comment on those.

Q: Hypothetically, what would it mean for a company other than WWE to add a Daniel Bryan and a CM Punk at the same time? What would that do and what would that say to the world?

A: I can't comment on those two guys, but I think there are certainly a lot of exciting rumors right now.

Also TK was on Busted Open Radio and called out the guy who originally claimed the DB and Punk signings :

You think Omega and the Elite are gonna troll?^^
Honestly when I saw that AEW trademark "the First Dance" I was like "Ok Kenny I see you. You´re gonna troll Chicago with the Punk thing right?".^^

STOP F'N TEASING ME!

To answer the question, it's clobbering time!
