AEW Dynamite |OT2| #JoinDarkOrder UP: Blood and Guts postponed/Dynamite continues live shows with no audience
- Thread starter Bronx-Man
- Start date
Mens is very white (with a little bit of east asian) but Scorpio Sky has had periodic bursts of a singles push. I suspect that is going to completely fade away while the trios belt is getting started (probably the belt SCU should have been first champions for) but he is charismatic, jacked as hell, amazing in the ring, and got The Jericho Push.
But yeah, I hope they expand that a bit more. I get that right now the women's division needs a lot more help but it would be nice to nip "it is all a bunch of white guys" in the bud.
Sidenote: Holy hell Abaddon looks good. I hope she is even half decent in the ring because that is a look (and presumably a character) I want to see more of.
Local wrestler here in Denver. She has a bit of an undead monster/zombie character. She's not bad but her in ring mannerisms are excellent. Shida's reactions to her and the story those two told in the match are going to be the highlight of Dark this week
I'm hoping they give Strong Hearts a push with the expected trios title coming.
I think one of the things that should be highlighted is that the more defined trios like Strong Hearts and SCU should be looked at as having a inherent advantage for being formed units for a long time.
That said, I think Death Triangle make the most sense to give the belts to. Pac and Lucha Bros are high enough tier that they could easily be singles and tag champs respectively, so I think this is the opportunity to recognize the three of them as champions.
I like your angle on this and agree with the reasoning. Jurassic Express should be the natural usurpurs after Death Triangle has a run. They're over. They're entertaining. They're likable. They have great matches. They would do really really well.
But remember, wrestling is very serious and not fun and thus her gimmick is dumb because she's not actually undead. lol
If they go with a Triples title, what do y'all think they call it? I'd go with something simple like the Triple Team Chanpionship, then call it Trips for short like everyone already is on here (also to piss off HHH).
Speaking of POC, Leroy Green may be a bit similar to OC, but he'd fit right in at AEW. Yes, he's on the greener side, but he's got plenty of potential.
Edit: Looks like he might have disappeared off the internet recently so I'm not sure what his status is at all.

I like it as an opportunity to push JE more too, for sure.
Man, I really want a trios tournament to start after Blood and Guts now, culminating at Double or Nothing.
12 teams:
-SCU
-Strong Hearts
-Jurassic Express
-Death Triangle
-The Elite (Young Bucks + Omega?)
-Inner Circle (PnP + Guevara?)
-Nightmare Family (Cody, Dustin, QT?)
-Dark Order (Uno, Grayson, Exalted One?)
-Best Friends + Orange Cassidy
-TH2 + Kip Sabian
-BBB + MJF
-Jobbers (Cutler, Avalon, Nakazawa)
I think it would be a good way to further a lot of other angles too.
It would be amazing and it's exciting to see them putting the pieces into place. I imagine they will build to a trios tournament that culminates at either Double or Nothing or All Out. Or maybe a random episode of Dynamite to pump up TV ratings. They did that for the original tag titles, but unfortunately, the roll-up ending was a bit of a wet fart despite the SCU/Bucks match being quite good overall.
Fan pic from Abadon vs. Shida.
Fuck man, I love this. I hope her in-ring work is as good as her look.
I would Like that the Bucks made team with brandon Cutler. It would be more natural because Cutler is with them everywhere.
So yeah, right now the tag/trio division in AEW in unmatched in the West.
There are some pictures of her with a title belt on some indy, so I'm assuming she can at least kind of go. We'll see! I hope it's a solid match.
That's the one I have been listening to. I always felt it was a decent theme but that version really clicked.
I'm for this if the Bucks turn heel and Cutler never ever gets tagged in (maybe they even make him carry a camera at first) and then when he finally does the other Buck immediately blind tags him back out. Like a bizarro Orange Cassidy.
Not sure of these guys availability but
Myron Reed:
AC Mack:
and The O.J.M.O
would all deserve serious scouting if AEW was looking, they can't just keep teasing Chris Bey and then never sign him anymore now that he's in Impact
(stole all those from the indie spotlight series on r/squaredcircle)
I fucking LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE AC Mack and think he deserves to be signed ASAP (alongside these other two men who are also awesome. I just have a soft spot for Mack cuz he wrestles here in Atlanta all the time and is amazing on the mic)
It was pretty good. Don't expect much flippy shit but they told a good story in the ring.
AC Mack looks athletic as fuck. Might be a good prospect.
CODY!!!!!!
I'd be nabbing Apollo when his contract is up too, one of those guys that they didn't even get right in NXT let alone the main roster.
That's literally my first time seeing AC Mack, but he's got *it*. Didn't even need to see him in the ring.
Totally agree. You can't convince me that a guy that looks like that, has his athletic and wrestling ability, can't get over if used in the right role. To me he seems like one of the very biggest wastes of talent in recent WWE.
He's really short. He's billed 6'1" but he's more like a 5'9
5'9 isn't really that short. AEW's roster is relatively small so he wouldn't stand out that much for not being tall. I can't imagine why his being 5'9 would be a hindrance, if again, he is booked correctly. Taz is likely even shorter than that and got over as a huge bad ass in ECW.
OJMO would be amazing for AEW. I think he's ready for the next level, his in ring work for Rev Pro has been outstanding the past year.
All these guys look great to me. I would love some more PoC diversity!
All those dudes above look awesome! Bring 'em and start developing them.
Between his good looks and smooth voice I would really like to see "steal your girl" Scorpio.

Definitely. He needs to be that suave motherfucker, either heel or face.
I mean, the second Women's champion of the company should give you a hint that these guys care about it, i really dont doubt we will get a non-white champion eventually. When? When the chosen one is enough ready to be the face of the company.
I hope the first few pushes aren't just put into a singing and dancing gimmick. I really dislike that for some reason.
Y'all want Scorpio Sky as a champ and I'm just over here hoping for the Pentagon singles championship run. :(
Give me Penta Dark running wild on the roster.

I think they're overall doing pretty well with representation from their champions. A japanese woman, a Native American transgender woman, a black tag champ, another not quite openly but not hidden bisexual tag champ.
I think more underrepresented diversity in their men's main event scene is a goal but one that isn't going to be an instant thing just like having a stellar women's division isn't going to be done overnight.

Looking at those gifs, I would definitely want AC Mack in AEW. Looks like a bigger guy with presence and obviously incredible agility.
The other two meh.
