Hikaru Shida returned to AEW and pretended to join the Outcasts then helped Britt and Jamie save Willow.
Roderick Strong had his first match in AEW and looked good. He hit stiff chops and backbreakers. It was glorious.
Time to fill this out with how I ended the last thread, weird matchups that are hard to believe happened.
We'll start with my favorite which is CM Punk vs. Eddie Guerrero vs. Rey Mysterio in IWA:MS. Ian Rotten's dedication to not making any money on his shows is exemplified here in how much this must have cost to showcase the biggest homegrown star they had against Rey who hadn't been signed by WWE and Eddie who had been fired to pull his life together. A really fun match.

This one isn't hard to believe happened, but since we got to see Satnam Singh in overalls we got to see the man with the biggest overalls Haystacks Calhoun as he takes on Ernie Ladd

AJ Styles & Air Paris vs. Elix Skipper & Kid Romeo, always fun to remind people that AJ Styles wrestled in WCW

Technically they could do Rampage one night and ROH the other
How dare you Tony.
He constantly has bangers, plays the midcard gatekeeper role to perfection, and is humble now and has no problem making a fool of himself to build babyfaces up. He looks like he’s just having fun being a goofy dirtbag.
On top of that it sounds like he’s been a real asset when it comes to the touring and house show plans.
I never would have thought I’d be happy to have him around, but here we are.
Oh man you don't know how happy that would make me, especially with this weird "Takeshita was Kota and Kenny's son" revisionist history going on in wrestling fandom lately.
That said I fully expect it to be Johnny Dramatic. Or I dunno, one of the Sin Caras or Yoshitatsu. DDT loves to play it fast and loose when name-dropping WWE.
Cardona retweeted it as well so that sadly, seems like the answer, although I wouldn't put it above him to troll people by doing that too.
{Twitter, Everybody's doing it. }{Writing and Story Blog}
I mean Cardona was my initial thought but then I was like "surely he's doing something more important by now." He'd be cool to see.
Is there a belt available for him to collect? He'll do it.
I made a game, it has penguins in it. It's pay what you like on Gumroad.
Currently Ebaying Nothing at all but I might do in the future.
Like some bro from Long Island could defeat the second most powerful man in Shiroishi City.
Like Mega Man Legends? Then check out my story, Legends of the Halcyon Era - An Adventure in the World of Mega Man Legends on TMMN and AO3!
I also can't foresee this working in the long run either
People will not like having to accommodate Punk openly, and he'll eventually probably slide to Dynamite given that Saturdays will naturally have worse ratings as most TV does, and he's petulant enough to complain about that
Tony's going to lose the room if he hasn't already

These are all people in their late 30s and 40s acting like this too.
Bret and Shawn were younger and got along enough to work matches and Shawn was fucked up on drugs and Bret was drinking a ton on the road doing that.

It's been said before, but the fact that Tony Khan is basically playing EWR in real life is my dream.

The "soft brand split" thing always sounded like complete nonsense.
We'll see if Meltzer has it correct.
No
The Bucks are victims of slander and assault
They are absolutely justified if they are refusing to work with Punk
Just work with your abuser to draw big gates is not the narrative we should be pushing here
He started a fight with them he's not an abuser, plus he was complaining about his bosses and that's fine.
{Twitter, Everybody's doing it. }{Writing and Story Blog}
Refusing to work with the man that assaulted you and spread lies about you is also “fine”.
CM Punk shouldn’t have a fuckin job to begin with after what he did. That he is now successfully gaslighting the fans into making the Bucks the bad guys for not wanting to work with him is just sad now.
