TBS Championship Match: Matt Hardy has answered Jade Cargill’s open challenge with AHFO’s Bunny set to take on the TBS Champion.
The “Brian Danielson” aka “Daniel Bryan” match ending where “John Moxley” came out to spare his beat down and then turn on him to demand a match at the pay-per-view was a lame storyline.
I’m being very honest in saying that these storylines with young nobodies is very boring, with the exception of a very few. I am looking forward to the Moxley vs. Daniel Bryan match. I hope that Moxley turns complete heel and Daniel Bryan will be completely babyfaced with his “YES!” “YES!” “YES!” Chants!
AEW still needs a lot of seasoned superstars that continue to “win” championships as the young, barely known names, craft their acts and make those names for themselves.
The sons of “Billy Gunn” should be getting a stronger push than what they have been. This is what AEW needs. Remember when Randy Orton made his debut with his hall of fame father “Cowboy” Bob Orton? That’s an introduction to success and extreme entertainment! The Harts. The Smiths. The “Rhodes” (Runnells). The “Flairs” (Fleirs). Too many more to mention. My point is that these extremely young talent need 2-3 more years of performing with and against the superstars to get over and become a household name.
