All Elite Wrestling Thread (It's Wednesday...you know what that means.)

Everything Kenny knows about the NBA he learned from NBA Jam and Space Jam.

That was one of the best episodes this year with a lot of funny moments.

As for HHH, the pissant thing wasn't that bad. The shot he made when he sarcastically said "I only felt important when they put an EVP (executive vice president) by my name" was the nasty shot at them people overlooked. He's calling them marks.

Yea, definitely one of the best BTEs of the year so far. Kenny wasting all the April budget on his trailer was too.

I agree that pissant company wasn't bad per se, but in the whole scheme of things it was unnecessary and was a diss.

If anything competition is good for the wrestling business in general. If AEW gets off to a good start where they are getting good TV ratings etc then they can make Hunter eat his words. They could have parodied the John Oliver bit and put the message across they'll take care of their talent.

That's not forget they wanted to hire Cody, Hangman, Kenny and the Bucks and I think they are bent out of shape still they turned WWE down.
They have a great chance now to be the real alternative and in actuality, they should do all their talking by putting on the best matches and product out there and just ignore any comments. As I said right at the beginning of the topic, I'm definitely rooting for them to succeed.

If anything that comment and them downplaying AEW at the HOF should be all the motivation they need to make DON the best show they can put on. Plus if it wasn't for NXT, a lot of fans would tune out of the WWE product anyway.

TNT hasn't been ruled out as a destination either. There's talk they might be the lead in to the Players Only NBA broadcasts.

Darby Allin signed with AEW. If you haven't seen him he takes crazy bumps where everyone worries about his safety. He's kind of like Sabu without the table spots and he does a punk rocker gimmick.

[Big Boss Man]

Thanks. Yea, I think someone shouted his name out at the Q&A about who they should shine and Kenny nodded and said he was good.

New Road to DON~!

The Librarian will bring about the biggest boom period in wrestling history. He will make The Rock look like a jobber. All In II will have Kenny Omega vs The Librarian for the AEW World Title and sell 6 million PPVs.

Spoiler

The Librarian has sexy hair.
