It was a short reign, but it was a fantastic reign that reestablished Ilja as one of the best wrestlers in the world, and it set Carmelo up for success. I look forward to seeing what's next for both of them.

It was good, I don't think it was a good idea for him to drop the title though, unless maybe they hotshot the thing
But I hope that means they're putting him higher on the card and not shelf him
Cause where the fuck is Sami? Not that I miss his annoying face, but the US open challenge was the first time I actually really enjoyed watching him

ilja was just truly starting to get over near the end of this so i'm not crazy that they took it off him. i also dislike melo more and more by the week so it's a double gut punch. they better have something especially good for ilja coming up, and i hope that melo having the title is just a vehicle for trick to get it soon.
i'm not sure if they move ilja up the card. i don't think they'll put him in the world title scene until gunther has another reign, which could happen as early as next year, but not in the immediate future. if they try to make him feud with ciampa or tama, all the momentum he built will be completely flushed down the toilet.
for melo, he's seemingly going to feud with gargano, so it turns out HHH actually is racist and was just playing the long game (based). he can't really continue the open challenge. together sami and ilja ran through like 85% of the low-mid carders that would challenge for it already. and not everyone can do the same gimmick, you gotta save the open challenge series, don't let it get stale or played out by letting everyone do one.

if they were in a company that actually did shit with their tag teams, maybe. even if they won the tag titles they wouldn't make it to half the ppv pre-shows.

the entire last month of AEW programming has been "ugly white midget larping as a new japan wrestler vs fake-cool black midget in sunglasses" about 3 times per episode, with the exception being sometimes you also see a real new japan guy against one of them too.
all of wrestling is going to be like this in 5 years. you just know HHH deep down wants to do a WWE G1 too. i have workrate fatigue, man.

my favorite IWC trope is rhe retarded transsexual retard who thinks wrestlers (and their manager, and agent) aren't smart enough to take the highest offer with the best fit, and will instead throw everything out the window if given a midcard title run during negotiations

Imagine how incredibly fucking stupid you have to be to be sitting there in your own filth and shit particles, insisting everyone else is stupid and only you can see when a wrestler is being manipulated

daniel gaycia unironically did this like a mark, he was booked incredibly weak during his run too like he was being humiliated for wanting to go to NXT
however ilja didn't do this, he was injured for ages and his contract isn't actually coming up anytime soon

nah that's unironically you. I'm the one who understands it's a business, not everyone can have constant main events and title runs, there's nothing wrong with being a career midcarder, traveling the world, having a higher profile to do charity and volunteer work, it's an awesome job. But little freaks like you want to tear anyone down who isn't constantly agitating for fake titles, fake awards and fake star ratings.

Maybe when AEW breaks up with New Japan and hooks up with WWE just like AAA and TNA did, they'll send Ilja to wrestle in the G1.

whole reason NJPW is partnered with AEW instead of WWE is because WWE wants to encroach on japan. same thing with CMLL in mexico so WWE partnered with AAA instead.
