Hybrid 2
Oh, that's them? I didn't even recognise them. Thought they were some random jobber tag team for some reason lol
You got used to their monster energy gear.Oh, that's them? I didn't even recognise them. Thought they were some random jobber tag team for some reason lol
And yeah, I knew Angelico was from SA :)
Short but sweet. I'm so hyped for this Atlanta show. There's Cobb, the cage match, and the tag team battle royal.
Listening to the podcast Jericho did with Russo over Xmas.
Holy Shit!
Vince never wanted to let Austin talk and tried to kill 3:16.
I never knew this and thought he'd just gone mental like in the last 10 years or so, now I'm finding out that the character that got me into wrestling almost never happened.
wow broo
Are you sure you didn't mistake him for Riddle? BRO(god I hate that 'gimmick' if you call it that)
A friend of culture amid our midst.
He must have Judas in, Judas in his mind.I was at the gym for a late night work out, and as I was leaving the locker room to head home I realized Judas was playing over the gym speakers. The overnight guy who works there is ALL ELITE
Greatest post in this thread.
From memory, I believe it is:
Best Friends vs TH2
Statlander vs Diamante
Swole vs some other local talent
Young Bucks vs QT Marshall/Peter Avalon
So does Cody have to win the match with Wardlow to have his match with MJF at Revolution or does the cage match just need to happen? Because if Cody doesn't need to win then that really opens the possibility space for this match and what they could do with it. I think it could also mean that there's an outside chance Wardlow could win.
Also, I promised an image of my friend with baby Wardlow awhile back but I had to figure out a way to blur my friend's face and I was having issues with posting the image but I think I have that all ironed out:
My friend is excited for tonight and so am I!

AFAIK Cody doesn't have to beat Wardlow to get the match with MJF, he just has to survive a cage match with Wardlow, like he had to survive the lashes.
That is how it has been presented anyway.
I seriously just want a show where Kenny and Uno just talk about games for a half hour. I don't care that it's completely out of kayfabe, just do it!
I think one thing that is not being taken into account with Wardlow is his lack of experience.
Wardlow's presentation in AEW so far, for all intents and purposes, is just some big guy MJF found on the street and put a suit on him.
While it hasn't been explicitly stated, Wardlow is basically a rookie.
Virtually everyone that debuts on AEW, Dark Order, B&B, Jeff Cobb, AEW either went out and got footage of from other promotions or they just have Excalibur say that they've wrestled in Japan, all over the world or even name the promotions.
Wardlow got none of this, so I can imagine the lack of experience being the way Cody beats him on Wednesday.
Cody promising to best wrestling show Atlanta has seen in years. I'm ready.
I think the priority has probably shifted a bit with Wardlow, too. Over the summer when he was signed, they were open about wanting to add some hosses to diversify their roster. He was one of it not the earliest guy they signed that fit that bill. Since then, they've also added Hager, seem likely to be adding Brodie Lee, and are also rumored to be in on Cage and Archer. Not to mention they're bringing Cobb in too. They can afford to bide their time with Wardlow before giving him a big push.
IMO, the highest priority of this angle is MJF and as I've said before, I think he needs the win at Revolution. I think Cody beating Wardlow makes sense to keep him strong going into the PPV, and that will make MJF beating him even more meaningful because nobody has beaten Cody legitimately in a singles match yet.
Doubting a Cody match and being proven wrong is one of the weirder running gags
I assume all Cody has to do is escape the cage to win. Maybe we get a run-in by someone new who will be in Cody's corner, beats up MJF, which distracts Wardlow enough for Cody to get out. But I'm guessing it'll be Arn Anderson instead.
