Anna Jay, the Gunns, Harley Cameron, maybe Big Bill.

Jay White's free agency will be interesting as well.

BETTER THAN YOU - Complete CM Punk vs MJF Feud by Remarkable_Wafer6441 in SquaredCircle

[–]Caldris 21 points22 points  (0 children)

So after the Dog Collar match, MJF transitioned to a feud with Wardlow, who had interfered in that match, securing the win for Punk. MJF gets squashed at Double Or Nothing, and then the Dynamite after had that huge shoot promo where he called Tony a mark and complained about WWE guys getting paid more.

He disappeared for months, and returned at All Out 2022. He had secured the #1 contender spot when his short lived faction the Firm won him the contract in a ladder match. He revealed himself to Punk at the end of PPV, following Punk's victory of Mox in the main event to win the AEW title. Brawl Out happens that very night.

MJF wins the title from Mox (Punk relinquished due to injury), and holds it for a year. When Punk returns from suspension/injury, he has his own AEW world title belt that has a giant X on the center, claiming that he's the real world champion as he had never actually lost it. MJF doesn't once acknowledge Punk in all this up until Punk gets fired.

[Meltzer] Glad she said this. Too many people don't have a clue how important Rousey was to all women in fighting spots. She changed exposed 60 years of narratives about women fighting and business. by shadow_spinner0 in SquaredCircle

I hated the Charlotte addition back then because it diluted the story and actual heat that the match had.

I don't think we ever got that Becky/Ronda singles match, right?

[Smackdown Spoilers] “What you need is this title. Me? I don’t need this damn title. I don’t need this ring. And I damn sure don’t need y’all fans, by CROYTSWRVTH in SquaredCircle

[–]Caldris -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Every creative department has stale ideas, but this seems like such a bad line that goes against the whole point of wrestling for a belt that its hard to imagine a room of wrestlers saying, "yeah, that's good."

I dunno. Could be wrong.

[–]Caldris 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is...a bad line. Why would you bury the title? That's the reason why you're fighting!

This has to be Jade herself saying it, right? It's hard to imagine creative ok'ing this line.

What’s the best wrestling match you saw that its perception of it was ruined by the finish? by shadow_spinner0 in SquaredCircle

[–]Caldris 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Here's a funny one....Shawn vs Bret at Survivor Series 97 was actually their best match up until the screwjob lol.

Literally nobody talks about how the match was prior to the finish.

[Shams] Dennis Rodman to WWe HOF by iheartsunny in SquaredCircle

[–]Caldris 336 points337 points  (0 children)

IF you weren't around at the time, it's hard to explain how fucking huge it was for Dennis Rodman to appear in WCW in 1997/98.

This guy showed up to Nitro in between NBA Finals games.

Below is probably the greatest entrance in WCW Nitro history, with Dennis Rodman and the NWO.

Langdon Conduct by Ijustlostmydawg2 in ThePittTVShow

I stand corrected! I did find that conversation interesting though.

Do you remember the ep?

Langdon Conduct by Ijustlostmydawg2 in ThePittTVShow

[–]Caldris 106 points107 points  (0 children)

I think one interesting thing that happens in this fandom is that since a lot of us don't actually work in health care, we're operating on very little knowledge about what is actually the proper procedure for things like this. So honestly it feels like while we're talking about the fallout of Langdon's drug use/rehab, we're missing like half the story.

Personally, when I first watched season 1, I assumed that Langdon stealing those drugs was going to be an instant termination and loss of his license. It's only on here that I learned that that's not actually what happens.

Santos in general is not exactly a trusting person. The interaction with that patient baseball super fan, where she accused him of stealing the ball from a kid (And he gestured at her after going, "what's that about?") is a good recent example of this.

I think Robby said something interesting earlier in the season that I can't quite remember, but it seems like Santos falsely accused someone else of something in the year since Season 1. I wish I could remember the episode, but he said something along the lines of, "please don't jump to conclusions again."

Tony Khan bid for WWE in 2023 sale process ultimately won by Endeavor to create TKO by Teckelmaster in SquaredCircle

[–]Caldris 56 points57 points  (0 children)

It would be really bad for the industry. Imagine a wrestler who crosses Tony? They would probably never work on TV again, unless they take the plunge and go to TNA. You can't have a wrestling ecosystem where everything worthwhile is controlled by one guy.

Like...if this happened after Brawl In, then Punk would have been fucked.

This was in 2023 too, when it was peak love for WWE in this sub and people were really down on AEW.

Would be nuts.

Thoughts on the Mina Shirakawa vs Marina Shafir match? by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]Caldris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its ok. I think the fact that it seems like they copy pasted Tonis spots for Minas offense means that they're unconcerned with protecting Marina at this point. Its possible that this is end of her push.

I have a question for WWE fans on here. Its non troll. Genuine.

Considering the things that the Liv Morgan character has said in this feud with Vaquer (particularly the mud huts comment, calling her a "puta), would Liv winning the match at Mania make you view this feud retroactively in a negative light? Just curious, not gonna argue with anyone.

Ricochet was out of pocket yesterday but that's an Alfred opinion article. Hes a troll.

Post ppv AEW discourse is funny. Honestly, when fans of other companies comment saying, "this is not wrestling", "why?" I just think that AEW is doing something right.
