montreal is all the evidence I'll ever need that creative control of any amount doesn't work (to my understanding hart was told he would have control of how he dropped the belt and ultimately was screwed on this point)
If this is anything like other times they do shit like this it just makes the fans more riled up and people who actually have no clue about what AEW is here about it and they're just going to chant for AEW more during matches and be even more disruptive. Although WWE usually couples moves like this with putting on a really lackluster show to highlight why people want an alternative.
I wore an NJPW shirt to Elimination Chamber last spring and no one said a word to me. I hope AEW succeeds but they are clearly trying to use the WWE as a bad guy to get over.

Which is kind of silly, because WWE is going to make themselves the bad guys when somebody finishes their contract and tries to go to AEW. Cubs Fan made a good point on twitter that wrestlers can use the dumb shit WWE did to fight them and get out of the contract. Stuff like not letting them wrestle on certain shows because of their gender or ethnicity.
I don't know what Penis Druid means in this context? Honestly I was surprised there already was AEW merch let alone that the WWE would make you not wear it.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

I sat in seats given to us by Michael Cole (family friend) while wearing a New Japan Lionmark shirt. They don’t give that much of a shit.

Billy Gunn was in the crowd, not on-stage. He'll be a producer for the company going forward

Well, as long as it's not the Road Dogg, who we know has terrible booking opinions vis-a-vis Becky Lynch.

So June 5 is the Best of the Super Juniors finals in Sumo Hall, the building that usually has important shows/more audience eyes, like the G1 finals. Between that, that section of the 2019 New Japan event location announcement video having a timebomb fuse running in the background, and his most recent blog update of his recovery percent, maybe I'm just being way too hopeful and reading too much into things but I honestly wouldn't be shocked at a surprise Hiromu return (even if it's just to say hi)

Tony Khan apparently said in an interview that they plan to treat full-time AEW talent as employees, including health insurance. That's kind of a big deal.

So, maybe take it with a grain of salt.
I didn't specify it when I first mentioned it but this almost certainly means CIMA wrestles there at least a couple times and that's fantastic
I'm really very very very happy with all of this so far

Yeah
He is no longer working for them and announced he has officially signed with another league. Why wouldn't they?
Was implied with this but yeah, this of course includes healthcare

Dissappointing. I needed him to either bust into a cheesy rap break or take a brain buster from her.

That match was rad as hell.
Apparently it was a thing after all, but somebody came to their senses.
Never underestimate how petty WWE can be.
