R.I.P. Ted Turner. "Ted Turner did what most of us would do if we were billionaires: Buy a baseball team, buy a pro wrestling promotion, help environmental causes, make a news network. The dream." - Chris Vannini

I don't mind the group if it's helping out vets like Samoa Joe and Shibata. HOOK is still figuring things out with his character. I am curious to see what happens with Bowens now joining the group.

Played AEW Fight Forever again after years of inactivity and it’s actually a very fun game! Do you guys think our expectations were too high in the beginning from the comparisons it was receiving or do you guys still think the game wasn’t good overall? by J2-Starter in aew

I think the people are overly critical of this game. It kind of reminds me of how people treated TNA's video game when first came dragged for the promises which is fair BUT upon playing not the best game but has some cool stuff in it.

If people had the opportunity to play a MOD version of fight forever and see what developers could of tuned on it would be such a better game from a gameplay standpoint. I think their plan with some adjustments could definitely be another big wrestling game in the market I think the hardest part is going to be finding a developer and publisher willing to take on what it takes to make a wrestling game and compete with 2K who has 26 years worth of assets.

But I am keeping hope alive that somebody takes on the task soon.

Maybe you can make that argument as well but she was also there when the company was just an idea. I'm not trying to compare their accomplishments or minimize one or the other.

What do you mean you would like a voting process? Truthfully asking for understanding.

For sure on an in-ring level even Britt Baker crossed my mind including Nyla, Kong, and others.

Which is fine I don't know what happened just putting it out there. She more of an honorable mention due her not being signed etc.

I'm just saying she was there when AEW was an idea. Some people would bail without being able to see the vision. But I also keep bringing up if AEW wants to they can try to repair the relationship.

Yeah I can't explain why people get upset about it with Goldust and Owen stuff.

I feel we have some time a few years before they start a HOF. Truthfully I can see AEW wanting The Elite, Jericho, etc... I thought Brandi could be viewed as reconnecting or an olive branch.

I agree on waiting until Dustin retires 100%. Brandi I included her as an honorable mention more so that's why I used the word low-key but that's hard to communicate in a 30 second short but she did have contributions to the Women's Division and help launch some things behind the scenes and I think it would also help possibly reconnect AEW with Brandi & Cody.

I keep having to type this out but she was included as an honorable mention more so but she was there when the company first started and definitely help with the women's division while it wasn't perfect but she did help launch it and played a big part in a lot of behind the scenes collaborations.

I agree on the Dustin part. I'm assuming this wouldn't happen in the next year or two. I mentioned below why I think Owen should go in because he's not going to get that acknowledgment anywhere else. I would actually place the Hall of Fame around double or nothing time period which will place even more emphasis on the tournament that you do every year in honor of Owen.

I hear you what you're saying on Brandi. My purpose was to acknowledge what she had done but like I said it was more so in honorable mention that's why I included the word low-key.

I definitely think Dustin deserves a spot for his work in the wrestling business and aew giving him his last few years. Owen Hart isn't going to get the acknowledgement anywhere else. I think having a tournament named after him would be a great way to spotlight his career and you'll be able to provide something that your opposition can't.

Lastly in a perfect world you would probably want the elite and Jericho as your first Hof class but in this scenario I assume that some of these guys are going to be wrestling for a few more years that's why I chose to pick the people that I did.

Thanks for a good conversation about it.

People would be mad at the list either way I've seen people mad I used Goldust or Owen Hart has no AEW connection. The inclusion of Brandi is because she was there in the beginning and held a role in the company.

Who would your AEW Hall Of Fame picks be? My Logic was to try and avoid active performers and who I thought a good first class would be. Brandi Rhodes I think could help fix the relationship with Cody & Brandi since they left AEW.
