I would’ve liked raven before all this. I doubt aew is that dumb to let this happen.

but I like the idea of the exalted one being able to tap into broken Matt hardy and fallen angel Daniels.

does raven have any past history with Daniels?

And if it’s raven then why did he say the elite were already broken? That comment doesn’t make sense
He might’ve had a run in with Daniels in TNA but not certain on that.

As for him knowing, he could be using Cutler as a spy since he’s around the Bucks a lot.

regardless, I doubt that AEW would be dumb enough to let their mystery character be seen on camera with the rest of Dark Order.

Well, it’s official: Lance Archer signs multi-year deal with AEW

Another member of Suzuki-gun leaves the group. Think it was obvious when he wasn’t announced for the New Japan Cup.

He's older than I thought he was (43) and I don't know why because I remember him from WWE in the 00s. I guess its because he never really did much of anything his entire career but has really broken out over the last couple of years so he seems "new".

I actually remembered him more from his run in TNA. I know he was in WWE but don’t remember anything about him there at all. Being in Japan for close to a decade has really helped him, especially this past year, when DBS left and he was booked as a solid threat to titles. Just hope with the three losses this past year that Suzuki-gun can find some replacements.

Kenny Omega looked so uncomfortable during that interview with Jim Ross.

It’s amazing how he was carried in NJPW. He’s like your average Indy guy in AEW now. Hard to believe he was hyped as the best in the world a few short years ago. You’d never know it watching him in AEW.

I mean, I was giving him credit for acting there. It was by design. with his partner and best friends fighting.

He’s in a weird spot, like Cody. He’s trying to make others look good to build the brand/company first.

He keeps putting on grade A matches and he’ll get a title run

Maybe it’s just me but he seems like a different guy outside of NJPW.

I’m having a very hard time getting into AEW - I think it’s Cody and his politics...the way he books himself to be this feel sorry for me baby face...always talking about his dad. It just really comes off like a big old vanity project to me. 95% of the roster still wrestles all over the indies. So it’s like a fed of the elite, Cody, Jericho and Moxley. Everyone else seems to be background noise. Just having a hard time getting into it. Seems like it’s peaked for me.

the problem is the two main factions are too stacked.

and way too involved in the big storylines.

bream them up and let dark order reign....

I don't see why that's an issue...AEW's only one day a week (aside from a few PPVs a year), so most of these wrestlers probably aren't making a ton of $ and hence should be able to make $ elsewhere as well (at least until AEW can pay them enough for exclusivity contracts like WWE does).

I hear you and agree. It just comes off as disengenuous. No reason to invest is more than 6-8 guys so far. I think they were really counting on signing a lot of crabby WWE guys. Maybe they still will. But then you risk making it TNA 2.0.

Guess my point is nobody is getting over but the usual suspects. I know Allin and Wardlow are supposed to get over losing to Cody, but I don’t buy it.

I thought yesterday was their best show yet. Also outside of the top tier guys there's Allin, MJF, Orange Cassidy, Jurassic Express, Sammy G and Hangman Page as bigger stars than they were when Dynamite started.

Not trying to convert anyone but I think the show's really hitting its stride and everyone is getting over

the lack of a mid card title doesn’t help.

luchasaurus needs a strong singles run.
