Ricochet has supposedly signed with AEW. Given the timing from his WWE contract he could appear at Wembley. -Fightful Select

Assuming Ospreay wins, I could see Riccochet pop up at the end as an instant challenger given their history.
yea the rumor is he’s debuting Sunday

He's not on the card. Not sure what the deal with that is but I'd expect him to be there
They have that Gauntlet Match so maybe that?

Saw a pic from inside the stadium and there is a banner for “Forbidden Door 2025” and “All In 2026” being in London. All In 2025 will be at the Texas Rangers stadium in Arlington, TX.

I think he'll likely be a surprise entrant in the gauntlet match.

He'll also end up being a complete nobody that goes nowhere and draws no money in AEW.

WWE never really used him worth a shit on the main roster, but he was definitely unique in that his skillset and style could separate him from most of the rest of the roster.

AEW, on the other hand, already has eleventy billion guys that do the same kinda shit he does.

He'll be mid-carding Collision six months or less, if not be thrown into a Frankenteam fueding over one of the several trios titles they have been AEW & ROH.

The only chance he has (IMO) of being different is if MVP, Bobby Lashley & Shelton Benjamin also sign with AEW to reform a new version of the Hurt Business and they add Ricochet to the stable.

Speaking of there being too many titles, why does everyone have to be in some type of group? Very strange.

I think they all but have to at this point. Their roster is so bloated that even with 4 tv shows a week (3 for AEW& 1 for ROH), they can't get everyone on tv as it is.

Can you imagine trying to get everyone on tv if the majority of them were only singles acts?

MVP filed a trademark for “The Hurt Syndicate” last week. Fully expecting MVP, Lashley and hopefully Shelton soon together somewhere. Benjamin is criminally underrated.

Yeah, I saw that. I hope they actually do something with it. Though with Tony's booking, there's no telling.

There's almost so much talent now that it'd be nice if Anthem actually gave a shit about TNA, didn't fire Scott D'Amore, and tried to create a legit 3rd company as cometition.

Oh - and VTFU on Shelton Benjamin. The dude is fucking outstanding in the ring and has been criminally underused for years. I saw a little of his recent podcast with Chris Van Vliet and it was great. He seems like a really good dude.

Speaking of Banjamin...whatever happened to Charlie Haas?

Haas retired a while ago to run a business and raise the kids he had with his then wife Jackie. Think he had some injuries. On a recent interview Benjamin said they are still extremely close friends.

Word was that he was trying to get them to loosen the purse strings because that's when Punk and the free agents were coming up. Ospreay and Okada did roll through for a match each,but I think he was gone by then. Not sure of the exact time frame.

D’Amore would be a great addition to AEW if TK lets him book, even ROH and advising AEW. I don’t think he’s available for a while though due to his TNA non compete.

Doesn't he own his own fed? How long is his non-compete?

Was just on the Chris Van Vliet show. He’s owned a Canadian promotion/school for a long time that was allowed in his contracts and re-launched another one he owns recently. Just can’t work for one of the major companies for a few more months. He and his family have a lot of outside businesses so he’s done well financially. Wrestling is just something he loves. TNA paid out his full contract when he was let go. He’s definitely a smart guy that will likely pop up in WWE, NJPW or AEW eventually.

Fightful Select is reporting that Swerve's new multi-year AEW contract is “considered one of the biggest deals in the company's history.” AEW has been more than pleased with the recent performance of Swerve, and he is expected to continue to be booked as a top act for the company going forward.

Danielson will appear on Wednesday. Probably going to do a farewell tour like Sting and Cena.

Did I see results right - are they *actually* putting Jack Perry into a main event program for the title with Danielson?

lmao...really?

Punk must be loling bedhind closed doors telling people, "NOW do you see why I lost my shit over there?"

TK booking Jungle Boy like a jilted ex-lover trying to get back at Punk or something.

I just saw Nikki Bella’s husband was arrested for domestic violence. Danielson might kill him before the Perry match.

They still don't know what to do with Wardlow.
Interested to see how the new Moxley story line unfolds, true to AEW, it will be a disappointment.
