David Finlay's dad probably discouraged him from joining NXT. He sees NXT firsthand. 🤼

David Finlay is 32. Born in Germany. #aew

When we, or I talk about or list TV Specials in the calendar year, we forget to include the anniversary shows for Dynamite & Collision. #aew

Double Champions This way there's too many championships but not too many champions. A compromise. #aew PS: This is a joke, lol. Food for thought too perhaps...

We're on a unbroken stretch of 10 Dynamite shows (11th next week) without a ppv. And 9 Collision shows. #aew

I'm running with this. It's funny! It might gain a cult following. I'm signing up, lol. A widely written off HOOK led faction going about business as usual. Confident, with a undeterred sense of self worth. All power to HOOK & Shibata. #aew

The PPV can't come soon enough. I'm feeling a little tired, I guess generally, over 2 months from Worlds End. The hype will kick in next week once the card is finalised and sinks in. #aew

Talent who will be involved in the ppv, around this time will be just wanting to get to the ppv and get their matches and creative layed out and ready. An 8 or 9 out of 10 TV show isn't a must. Peaking on the night of Revolution hitting an 8 or 9 is what counts. #aew

Next week is the go-home show and the ppv. It matters more than this week. #aew

Double champions... They'll figure it out. It'll take time once they know where they want the titles to go...to disentangle them... #aew

Tony probably thinks more people will stick around for the 6 man championship match so more people will watch the women's title match before it too. It probably means a trios title change too... 🤔 💭... #aew

Down the line, perhaps later in the year, Kenny & The Bucks get their EVP powers back...after winning a match with them on the line...and they remove the title non-compete stip from Hangman? #aew

Look like a couple of Koala Bears 🐨...with that hair. #aew

Can people see MJF as a Booker in the future? Putting aside he'll likely be in Hollywood anyway but I think he could do it if he chose. Joey Janela is a Booker too, I believe. I wonder if he could end up somewhere bigger. Ospreay Swerve? 🤔 💭... #aew

The full picture... 🤼

AEW will be ok regardless of WBD's future. Tony, with his & his dad's business & media connections will have leverage to ensure they have a home. A middle man reaching out to prospective partners... #aew

One roulette selection could be another talent added to the match making it a 3-way. Some one runs out immediately or there's a couple of minutes (maybe 5?) countdown so the competitors rush to get the match won before the mystery entrant comes out. #aew

Everytime the button is pressed, when it becomes 'live' again, another 'escalation' occurs...an advantage is gained. #aew

Roulette Ladder (Match) Push 'live' button & a spinning wheel stops at advantage, upgrade or handicap. - Weapon use (exclusive) - Table - No DQ - Instant win/loss - 1 min (interference)... will a friend or foe run out? - Winner gets title match (of choice?) - Only lose by submission Etc... #aew

Escalation Ladder (Match) Climb the ladder, push a button when it's 'live' and the stage screen reveals an exclusive power/advantage... - Use of weapon (single use?) - Table use - No DQ - Assistance/interference of 1 friend running out (1 minute only) - Gain a time out. Use at any time Etc #aew

Acclimatisation? Nah. Laying low is for his own safety. He went AWOL. 🤼

🤼

Got heatstroke in Saudi? Hope not. 🤞

They're probably interrogating, torturing him as we speak.

They must have reason for concern, suspicion. 🤔 💭... I mean HOOK is out recruiting for the OPPS dojo in AEW. Shibata in Japan. Hobb in... #aew

Hechicero Dorada

Rush..idk...he's a non-flippy lucha? Lol.

I know things are good but it can be easy to forget about The Bang Bang Gang. Jay White Juice Austin Gunn Colten Gunn Ace Austin They fould return with a new approach, twist. Also things have changed much since they were on TV together it'll be interesting to see what they do... #aew

I can't remember if Speedball has had any single matches with the luchas in AEW? I'm thinking masked luchas...Power ranger type luchas but I guess you can include Andrade & Bandido too. Hologram Clon Komander Sounds potentially fun matchups. #aew

AEW on Cable does around a million, if not more, combined viewers across the week of recent. Last week (Wed/Sat) 633k + 365k = 998k. #aew

I'm sure people understood this as the band The KLF burnt $1M in the early 90s.

Ron Perlman would make an interesting wrestler. A 3rd Grizzled Young Veteran. Hellboy gimmick perhaps, lol. Copeland with GYV too. #aew

Person Of Interest: Suspected of impersonating a proffesional wrestler. A champion at that. Reward on offer. 🤼

Collision was...(Not incl MAX)... 365k 0.06 #aew

I'm not saying they are coasting or that they should. They aren't. I mean in general in this time of the year every year they could coast a little and save for post mania to go for it...when WWE is usually on a creatively quieter period. #aew

When Booker joined in, the only one to do so, the Fleetwood Mac harmonies immediately rushed to mind. 😢 😊 Sorry...some bittersweet nostalgia overcame me for a second... 🤼

There's an argument AEW can just coast and ride the wave during the increased interest in wrestling in Mania season. Or, AEW steps up and sell to the potential new eyeballs coming their way too. With presumably interest in wrestling news up too AEW should get stories out and visibility up. #aew

Thekla ain't burning money...Thekla is money... Thekla isn't justified & ancient...Thekla is toxic & the 𝑛𝑜𝑤... #aew

Replace a character in a movie with a wrestler: Phil Brooks replaces Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber in 'Die Hard' (1988). 🤼 😉

NXT & AEW known audiences being similar sized is like a baby whale being similar sized as a shark*. * made up example for illustrative purpose. Idk if they are similar in size.

I didn't know Shad Khan owns The Four Seasons Hotel in Toronto. Idk, if AEW make use use of it when in town, lol. He's also opening a new one in Jacksonville this December (?) alongside the new Stadium. #aew

April 23rd will see the availability of the AEW-NFL masks aswell as being the first night of the draft. Collision will be the first opportunity to wear them at a show if they can be obtained in time. #aew

Tony's gonna do the media rounds now for Revolution which is 2 weeks away. #aew

𝘚𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘴 𝘗𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦!!! #aew

He doesn't have to curse one of them I suppose... 🤼

Cuba gets a bit of breathing space the longer this current war continues.

- Pandemic - Counter-programming - Massive online hostility, esp 2024. - Backstage troubles in full view of the public derailing the top of the card (+ suspensions, firing, split fanbase etc). #aew
