alex was one of the most pointless managers ever once lucha bros left. tony just put him with every other luchador and it instantly brought down their aura.

Alex was terrible in commentary and his face luchador sidekick gimmick was annoying and unnecessary

tony legit needs to cut like 50% of his contracted roster, he has way too many fucking toys and if he really needs some of them he can bring them back on a per-appearance basis

It’s amazing that Tony could release absolutely every single one of these people and it wouldn’t affect Dynamite or Collision because none of them are ever on them except for occasionally Top Flight and the MXM crew.

God willing. I'm a fan of his so I'll watch him wherever he's wrestling regardless. I was even all for the AEW switch at the start but jesus christ get him out of there asap

Not many people care about ROH these days. It's mostly for AEW die-hards who used to watch Dark.

I like Copeland but he's a WWE guy trying to fit in a different environment, and it's not working very well. And we all have seen already how does that ends.

>but he's a WWE guy trying to fit in a different environment
No argument. It was fun (kek) getting to see him mix it up and even venture out and wrestle in some different styles than he did across his WWE run, and it's not like the crowd didn't take to him. But it's just a square peg/round hole situation. It just doesn't feel right. AEW isn't changing for him obviously and when he's this close to the end of his run he isn't going to undergo some metamorphosis to fit in any better there than he has either. I'd rather see him wrap things up in WWE not just for those reasons, but also to be back under that umbrella with the Edge name again as well
