This is one of the greatest promos I've ever seen cut on AEW and it was by a guy nobody had ever heard of before
https://youtu.be/hc9zLtDRvzk
I'm still amazed by how good it is. He just grabbed that company by the nutsack and made himself known. To me Eddie has the same kind of vibe as Mankind, he's not the most photogenic guy but he's respected and loved by the crowd almost because of his flaws rather than in spite of them.

He's alright. I like his promos but I wouldn't call them the best I've ever heard. His look is god awful but he's decent in the ring. Even if it's 90's AJPW larp that's still good. I hate that fast chops to the corner spot though, I didn't like it when Kobashi or Kojima did it and he does it even worse.

What happened to him? The CM Punk promo segment was the most interested I’ve been in AEW but he’s disappeared recently.

He got suspended at a shit time and there wasn't really room for him on the PPV. He better get something in the next month or two.

Eddie had a cult following for like a decade OP. It's probably the biggest reason why there was such a campaign to get him signed, pahtnah.

If Eddie actually gave a shit about his body he could have been a megastar. But he looks like a trash bag and sabotages himself endlessly. Wouldn't be surprised if he has BPD.

Different characters. Mick was a nutcase with different personalities that sawdusted himself for pops. Eddie plays the hard guy and wants to wrestle like the pillars.

I'm OP but one of Eddie's biggest weaknesses is that he tries to LARP as these Japanese guys and he simply isn't as good as them, I appreciate the effort but it comes across as inauthentic and tryhard somehow. I'm sure he'll get it eventually given how many Japanese guys he's been allowed to wrestle in recent years.

He got in a program with Jericho before this year's Revolution, and became a secondary character after the first month. The feud is still going on
He had a ton of momentum after the match with Punk and the article he wrote, just for Jericho to steal it all
