Hey, MJF, that was an impressive amount of bacne you had going there. Something you want to tell us about that?
That'll be the eternal what-if. He was becoming a big star in AEW when he got sick (the Being the Elite videos were always amazing). Where would he be now? Would he be a face of the company? Would the Dark Order still be a going concern? Would he have found his way back to WWE in the Triple H regime?
Supposedly, AEW was planning a "Meat" tournament of some sort over the last year or two, but the matchups WWE could have if this story is true. Cobb, Fatu, Reed, Otis, Strowman, Femi, Gunther
Those European fans are always so batshit wild, it's great. I'll be curious to see Raw in Brussels, because I don't know of any history that Belgium and wrestling have.
Belgium seems like a perfectly nice country, but it's just kind of ... there. If you seeded the European country bracket, it'd be like a 7-seed that wins its first-round game and then gets knocked out in the second round by Germany. Again, I guess.
The pretty obvious tease for Rey Fenix and the perceived tease for Aleister Black, both on the same show. Great stuff coming ahead in WWE.
Nice little week for Axiom: from wrestling the Hardys at the MSG Theater on Tuesday in one of NXT's best weekly shows ever, to making his main roster debut in his homeland with a showcase against Gunther on Friday.
I know back when the E had its network, they would do some of those “follow the wrestler around on the day of a big match” mini-documentaries. They could have done one following Axiom around for a week. It’d probably be pretty good.
They tried that for a while, but the African Colonial Conference turned out to be tougher than it looked.
