Wow, front row. Very nice. At this point the only floor seats I'd really want would be in the front two rows as further back floor seats you're just paying more for seats that have a worse view than pretty much anywhere else in the arena.
Wardlow is winning the Face of the Revolution. 100%
I think Sammy is going to get stuck in one more "the IC is breaking up" story and not defend the title at Revolution most likely.
My prediction for the ladder match:
1) Andrade and Darby screw each other over.
2) Dante and Ricky screw each other over.
3) Lee and Wardlow hoss the hell out of each other.
4) Cody returns (as the joker) and Malakai and he screw each other over.
5) Penta? Pac? maybe?
I think Wardlow is taking the belt off of Sammy and then MJF is going to try and "claim" the TNT title as his property and Wardlow is going to destroy MJF.
I think that MJF and Lee need to be in the World Title picture and not the TNT title picture.

And that's the reason he said he needs to lose a little weight, well, if he doesnt want to end like big show/kevin nash. I dont see anything negative about meltzer saying a wrestler should stay healthy for his future.
Meltzer should retire. This isn't the first, nor unfortunately the last take you'll get from him, unless he changes.
Wanting someone to be healthy if they've been injured or are sick is one thing. That's not what Meltzer is doing. Keith Lee is, by all appearances, more than capable of performing at an exceptional level as he is. As such, there's zero reason to comment on his body unless your priority is shaming a bodytype you disagree with. In which case, like, get fucked.
As a fan, the extent you should be commenting on any healthy wrestler's body is horny gifs to your friends. Their personal health is not anyone's business.
My sister watched a little bit of AEW yesterday. During the Keith Lee vs Isiah Kassidy match she asked, "Why is a male cheerleader getting beat up by a linebacker?"
If I'm not mistaken, I believe Wardlow was already announced for the Ladder match. All of my scenarios were under the idea of him winning the ladder match and then winning the title.
However another scenario could be MJF taking Wardlow's title shot and winning the TNT title himself or having Wardlow cost him the title. That could stretch things from Revolution to Double or Nothing. There's probably a Battle of the Belts in between as well. Wardlow wins at Revolution. At Battle of the Belts, Wardlow turns and costs MJF the title and the two feud until Double or Nothing. That would leave the TNT title out of the feud.
However I'm all for Andrade or Keith Lee becoming the champs too. AEW is literally filled with great men and women who would be great champions. It's a great problem to have imo
well, we have to agree to disagree then. I have to confess i didnt know keith lee until that survivor series triple thread, but since then i am a fan, and i also know the guy is 37 years old but i want him to have a good run in aew for years. It's true that this is nobody's busisness, but i also wont get mad because someone says an individual should loss a little more weight in a physical activity
Keith Lee himself admits he needs to lose some weight. He gained a good 20-30lbs during his issues with covid. I'm sure he's trying to lose it and being back in the ring on a consistent basis will go a long way in helping him reach his goals.
If Keith Lee wants to lose weight, awesome! More power to him. Not the issue. He's a wrestler. We're fans. He's performing excellently. Fans should cheer, not comment on his body.
I'm a dude who's a few years older & a few inches shorter than Keith but about the same weight. It's genuinely inspiring seeing someone that has a body type like me being treated like a big deal and not a joke on TV. Felt the same when Puf wrestled on Dark.
I assume Keith's not at his peak fitness after almost dying from COVID, but like... not everyone has to look like they're carved out of granite on the roster. Keith looking like he does makes his move set that much more interesting.

Also, he's hot.
Remember Donovan Dijak?
lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Just had to google what he's up to yesterday since it was really the matches between him and Lee that put Lee on the map big time. Sure enough, jobbing on Main Event.
I think that was great, really did a ton for rehabilitating PnP.
It's like this forum is a pokemon gym.
Get it.
cause they battle I don't fucking know I don't follow pokemon.
yup. that's what was good about it. it means that we're finally seeing the Inner Circle explode. Jericho hopefully turning heel, because his face gimmick is awful, a genuine push for PnP, Hager maybe being let go, and Sammy, uh, having to actually evolve as a character.
Between his pre-Moxley match promo a couple of years ago, his post-match promo at Terminus, and his promo last night, Santana could easily be the mouthpiece of his own faction or go on a believable singles run. He's got so much believability in everything he says. Hope to see him and Ortiz with the tag titles this year. STUD.
Vince has this thing where if you're a bigger guy he forces you to wear a shirt or some type of singlet to cover-up.
A lot is going on with the factions.
Inner Circle is breaking up. The Elite/Super Elite/Super Kliq/Paragon or whatever their name is look to be breaking up or going through a big change. Pinnacle is going to lose Wardlow. Team Taz is getting a push. Best Friends have recruited Danhausen or not? Still not sure where that is going. House of Black/Kings of the Black Throne (are they really a faction?) and Death Triangle are in a war with each other. AHFO is falling apart.
Only the Dark Order, Nightmare Family, and The Factory are currently doing nothing.

Kenny won.Remember Donovan Dijak?
lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Im only familiar with his nxt run but any match of him vs dijak was amazing. The last one on a Takeover was real good, not their best but the hot crowd elevates it.
Wondering if with the name drop we'll get a one off LAX appearance to face PnP? What is Hernandez doing these days?
Give me all the body types! Dusty was all blubber. Hanson wasn't chiseled but still built like a brick shithouse. Murdock is carrying around the NWA title just fine. It's great!

Alright. So with three weeks of Dynamites left before Revolution, here are the current ongoing stories in AEW:
Championships:
World Championship: Hangman Adam Page just beat Lance Armstrong and is likely shifting to a feud with Adam Cole
Women's World Championship: Britt Baker hired Mercedes Martinez to beat Thunder Rosa because Jamie Hayter couldn't get the job done.
World Tag Championship: Jurassic Express, with Christian, is being targeted by the Ass Boys and their dad Papa Ass
TNT Championship: Sammy Guevara is taking challengers while the Inner Circle implodes around him

Death Triangle: Penta just got his other mask, PAC's a bastard, and Fenix is coming back... when? The feud with the House of Black could go a lot of different ways.
The Elite: Adam Cole+ReDragon have tension building with the Young Bucks while Kenny is away. Cole invited NJPW's Jay White to hang out, but was he lying when he said he liked Nick's earrings?
The Factory: MIA, though QT is feuding with Hook
House of Black: Needs a third to feud with Death Triangle.
Inner Circle: Imploding
Nightmare Factory: Is this even a faction anymore?
Pinnacle: Two stories -- MJF feuding with CM Punk and Wardlow's possible split.

Deeb vs. Shida: WOLF HUNGRY
All But Guaranteed Revolution matches:

When they first debuted in AEW, majority thought Marq Quen would be the breakout star of Private Party. Now it looks like it's Kassidy.
mmm, i don't doubt that it'll be revisited. It was definitely a story at one point in time, but things have changed so much that I'm not sure I'd call it a current storyline. in that it isn't something that's actively being progressed or built looking toward the PPV. could def be wrong!
Honestly I have no idea who wrestles Jurassic Express at the pay per view. I'd put Proud n Powerful over but that's probably in May or September, so they can build themselves back up before they win the belts. So, let's check the top 5. I don't think The Acclaimed, Gunn Club, or Private Party are really a PPV worthy opponent (also Gunn Club is doing the job this week), I don't think you put Kings of the Black Throne in that match unless you're giving them the belts (and I assume they bring in Swerve and go against Death Triangle anyway), FTR makes a bit of sense I guess? It will be very interesting to see what the rankings look like next week since I assume we'll know the direction this goes then.
