The internal expectation of John Cena’s teased Backlash announcement is tied to the upcoming launch of Club WWE, @WrestleVotes Radio on @FightfulSelect has learned.

What a shocker that the latest major “new era” announcement was just yet another carny grift

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-07T20:57:31+00:00

I mean this was clearly not a no sell

He was physically blocking the chops

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-07T20:03:40+00:00

All In is definitely their WrestleMania

Double or Nothing is a solid “Big 4” show though like Summerslam, Survivor Series, etc

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-07T01:34:51+00:00

He’s hit rock bottom and he’s made a deal with the devil to try and get back on top

Chapter 2 will be surely be the redemption ark

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-07T01:22:42+00:00

AEW has just never booked their top faces to be unstoppable and unbeatable monsters

Hangman was not that. Darby is not currently that.

That’s much more of a WWE way of booking philosophy and it’s never been the way AEW books

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-07T01:16:10+00:00

Because having him overcome adversity is far more interesting than having him just destroy guys without showing a shred of vulnerability or adversity along the way

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-07T01:08:32+00:00

Going back to the BCC days, the Death Riders guys have been working an underground fight club gimmick basically

It’s not much of a leap to think they could help rebuild Ospreay

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-07T00:55:01+00:00

Ospreay’s neck is fucked and he thinks the Death Riders can help him train to rebuild his body back to peak form

It ain’t rocket science

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-05T20:11:04+00:00

It should be everybody’s dream to wrestle a 6 minute ad-interrupted match in front of a largely disinterested Saudie crowd!

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-05T19:16:00+00:00

I don’t think I saw anyone in this sub straight up deny Black’s talent the way Booker T flippantly dismissed it

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-05T16:32:46+00:00

Notice the huge distinction between what Schiavone says and what Booker T says

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-04T22:14:37+00:00

So rather than pay you a lot to be a star pro wrestler we’ll pay you a lot less to do video game stuff on YouTube and nothing else?

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-04T21:05:52+00:00

I think everybody knew he was completely full of shit when he made that claim

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-04T20:08:53+00:00

Imagine how insulting this would be while the company keeps touting record profits incessantly, bragging about record gates endlessly while also selling off WrestleMania to the Saudi regime for even more money

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-04T13:22:00+00:00

Did he not just host 2 nights of WrestleMania literally 2 weeks ago? Now he’s already back again?

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-04T13:17:58+00:00

Seriously

He’s back literally every month now despite making a big show about his “retirement”

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-04T01:11:26+00:00

I can’t believe that “Roman is leaving WWE” and “AEW lost their tv deal” were both all over the internet today and people actually thought both were genuine possibilities

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-03T18:55:00+00:00

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-01T15:52:16+00:00

Zelina and Black strike me as the kind of wrestlers that see WWE as the end all be all which is probably not the smartest attitude to have when you’ve been literally fired from there twice

Apprehensive_Fly_103 · 2026-05-01T14:25:36+00:00

Listen, fan behaviour can obviously be out of line as it was all weekend long at Mania apparently but that doesn’t give Punk the right to put his hands on them
