I wonder how they plan to continue The Road to productions now that the TV show is here. I guess they will continue with Road to Full Gear? The content for "Road to" has been phenomenal.
My guess is that the bulk of Road To content will move to TV and their social media stuff will mostly be command centre-style announcements/highlight videos, plus the more vlog-y vids (shot of Brandi, wrestlers getting room service, BTE reverting to BTS vids).

Gotta be honest, if there is no paid streaming option in Canada, I might have to watch wrestling elsewhere...

I wanne throw money at them, but I can't. There is no legal option at the moment for me to watch AEW...

Wonder if/when they'll actually give Spears a singles win. Seems like he shouldn't be beating Moxley.

Love the name Dynamite, clear nod to Nitro

Looking forward to the show, as a longtime WCW fan I'm happy to see an alternative. Though I'll admit, I'm still skeptical. TNA left a really bad taste in my mouth as the "WWE alternative" many years ago. What a waste of potential that promotion was...

Anybody else hyped for Tony Schiavone back in the announcer booth?! I know I am.

The first time I heard Tony's voice after all these years I almost cried for real. Tony Schiavone is a reminder of so many great wrestling memories from the 90's with my friends watching WCW.

I hope AEW comes to Cleveland soon. Would love it see it live.

I'm totally blanking on the guy's name but a friend of mine is friends since high school with a dude who just signed with AEW. They had a (almost certainly) unintentionally hilarious promo at All Out of them fighting a bunch of dudes on a rooftop in Cleveland and it ends with him making the most Derek Zoolander-ass face. It was so bad and yet perfect at the same time.

Anyway I believe he's supposed to debut on the 2nd? I could be wrong about that...

I actually like his name a lot.

Sounds like something you would expect a big guy who smashes stuff to have.

That or "Slab Manbrick". Thats what my NXT name would be.

Totally. He's got a good look too. He apparently has boxing and jiu jitsu background which never hurts.

Just found a video from 2015 featuring Michael Wardlow being interviewed by Britt Baker after he won the Ric Flair Invitational battle royal:



Not the worst promo considering he had just started wrestling the year before that. Not a great promo mind you but he at least did it with confidence which is half the battle. It'll be interesting to see how much he has (or has not) grown since then.

Rush, Dragon Lee and Bestia left CMLL. Rush contract with RoH expires in December. AEW should try to get them.
