According to PWInsider, it was a WWE fuck up.

NXT talent has 30 day non-competes in their contracts. When he got called up to the main roster, they forgot to change the clause to 90 days.

And the best imitation of Jim Cornette goes to Dan Lambert.

The last few major debuts in AEW (Andrade, Miro, FTR) all felt underwhelming to me. The Black one was done right. The reaction of the live crowd helped but taking out a big star in the company made it seem like he's already a top tier guy on night one. The male roster is loaded- there's a half dozen wrestlers who can be world champion right now and another half dozen who can be there in a few months with the right push.

yeah intros haven’t been their strength.

Andrade I was fine with, but this is certainly better

I wonder if it was a one off since it was in Miami or if they're planning on bringing in someone from American Top Team to have a match with Lance Archer. Wouldn't be the worst idea considering they don't really have anything for Archer at the moment. Plus Lambert can talk and so can Jake. That could be a decent program to slow build to a match at All Out.

Black explaining his persona. Creative backstory there.

I can see him possibly being in a Pat McAfee type role where he's just going to try to harass Archer and Jake now since he was very good on the mic. But my original thoughts were that it was just to promote the Conor McGregor fight this weekend.

I cannot believe he did that.

but the Hardy’s, edge and Christian are all still walking, so maybe there’s hope?

AEWs light schedule has to help. He only wrestlers a couple times a month. He's absolutely fearless taking bumps.

Great crowd last night. They were loud for the majority of the night. You could tell they loved being able to see wrestling live again.

Page and Moxley I thought were the most over with the crowd last night. Darby also got a good reaction. Surprised Christian’s wasn’t as big as even Matt Hardy’s.

That was a gnarly match Archer and Mox had. Kinda surprised TNT is ok with that. The lingering camera shot of the barbed wire pulling on Mox's skin...*shudder*

Definitely a forgone conclusion but glad it’s official. Probably the best or second best women’s wrestler they have, pending on what you think of Serena Deeb.
