This is the exact moment when I thought
>Holy shit, watch the fuck out Vince. They coming for you
And now it's all gone. In the trash. Absolutely dead.

It's no surprise places like squaredcircle and resetera are siding with the passive aggressive politickers 100% with no nuance. That's how they operate in the world and online as well. Me? Phil is a sensitive, easily-triggered hot head, but the manipulators are worse.

lmao. This is what's making it unwatchable. Forget the Punk, Adam is a maineventer, thanks to his connections to the Elite and Baker. Adam Cole....kek.

AEWtists will deny it, but even they would (rightfully) shit on Cole when he was in NXT. But now he's in AEW and literally doing a WWE-style "odd couple" storyline, they cream their pants

Phil Brooks is a massive faggot, but he proved that he could consistently bring 200k-300k viewers with him whenever he showed up. AEW will never get a milly again now.

Back when I watched gAyEW, they started debuting all of these shitters and I had no idea who they were. Excalibur would shriek:
>OH MY GOD IT’S QUEEF PEE
I’m not a mark who watched one show and taped the other so I had no idea who these NXT fags were. I probably wasn’t alone in this.

Excalibur is so shit at debuts. He just goes "OH MY GOD ITS ___" then expects you to know who it is.

Yeah I really gave up on AEW for that reason. You’re expected to be a super mark and know everyone debuting. I decided that program is not for me.

He didn't. It was like 150k absolute max but more like 50k after the initial buzz wore off. They would do 850k-900k without him and barely scrape over a million with Punk sometimes

the first Danielson match was excellent and it was downhill from there until the Cole feud where it bottomed out.
Hangman is not and never will be a top guy.
