Maybe they team up a bit since Alin is hurt? Whatever happens, I'm here for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted October 26, 2023 Author Share Posted October 26, 2023 I mean, I hope not. Having him get physical once or twice would be great for the pop, but no one wants to see him wrestle anymore. He can barely walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Right. I'm sure that will happen, at least. But then awhile back I read rumors that he still wants to have one last match...again. lol You're not wrong, but I'm not ruling it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted October 26, 2023 Author Share Posted October 26, 2023 I mean, he's gonna want that until he stops breathing. I wouldn't rule it out either, but I'm also not really hoping for it. I just like seeing him involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Oh, I wasn't really hoping either. I really don't want to see that. lol But yeah, still nice to see him involved. I figured he would do something with AEW at some point, and working a bit with Sting one last time is perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I'm surprised it took this long to get him there. When they signed Andrade, I figured Flair wouldn't be far behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Excited that Ospreay signed with AEW! I think it's a much better fit for him than WWE. Also, it looks like Rousey is headed there as well, and maybe Goldberg? Dang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 Ospreay was probably always going there. I read there was a lot of pressure to try to get him to fully emigrate to the States, particularly to sign with WWE. AEW doesn't seem to put those same pressures on their talents — they have lots of guys who live abroad and who are just brought in on visas. PAC, Lucha Bros, etc. Rousey, I read, was on a handshake deal. Seems likely she'll get brought in, but probably short-term. Goldberg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 That's good. He doesn't need all that crap. Plus I still think he's just a better fit there in general, and really excited about the matches he'll have against the talent there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 I mean, sure. But this also kinda illustrates the "problem" with AEW – they fantasy book matches, not stories. In a lot of ways it's how they fundamentally differentiate their product, but I'm old school. I'd much rather see a great long-term storytelling feud than random "dream matches."

WWE has gotten better in that regard over the last year or so, thankfully. If AEW can do that, they can be unstoppable. A lot of their matches are good, but some are just spot fests that don't really tell a good story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 I mean, call me crazy, but I legitimately do not care about "dream matches." I want dream booking. I want stories. I want a reason to watch Ospreay wrestle whomever. When I look at AEW, I'm constantly torn. Some of what they do they do an amazing job building to. Christian Cage is must-watch TV. Some random "dream match" between like Danielson and Andrade... isn't. The match everyone is talking about is Swerve vs. Hangman. For good reason: it was a legitimate blood feud. I can do without the literal blood spots, but they've forced people to care about the outcome of this feud. It's not just random guy versus random guy, whoa look at all the cool flips!

Sharpshooter Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Yeah, same here. I like Andrade, but him going up against Danielson isn't a dream match, really. lol Tony Kahn or whoever does the booking is kind of hit or miss, just want that consistently. Because the things they are doing well, they do very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
