I'm sure AEW can be credited to helping the longevity but the "Boom Period" people say CMLL is experiencing is refering to ticket sales and they've had that before the AEW collab took off in earnest.

Good looking card but also good looking card! Whoever did the graphic better be getting paid well.
Those individual cards look so clean. The lines lead into the 'clash' so well. The ink and the texture on the wrestlers looks so good. Definitely going to use some of this in my art.

They gotta have a soundtrack for Anarchy in the Arena every year. It's so much fun.
Did we ever find out why they looped Mox's theme that first time? It was annoying as hell but glad it led to this.

Good point. I do know that whoever runs the roster sometimes just forgets people or drops them by accident. Some folk have dropped for no reason and it sets folk off saying it must mean their contract is up and they're leaving. All without checking if that's true.
So it's probably that. They forgot.

It's come up in a few times but in keeping with Kay Fabe he is a manager and while you gotta get a license to be able to accompany someone to the ring, it doesn't make you a wrestler.
Outside Kay Fabe, no idea. They could just put a manager only section.

Jay White's best promo work came out of those backstage post-match interviews.
And I don't think Roddy will but I'll be cheering for him either way after that promo.

Some of the best stuff comes out of those NJPW promos. Roderick's promo made me excited for his matches with how much it moved me.
Sometimes you gotta do something out your comfort zone and those promos are great for that.

Feel like we gotta get a Dalton & Outrunners trios run. Though the current booking makes me unsure if it's gonna be ROH or AEW titles.

The C2 is my favourite AEW event by Ks and miles.
But if you can't enjoy MxM, Outrunners, and Dalton then maybe you don't know graps like you think you do. Cause I've been waiting for that match.

I get that. It's hard to explain it well but it's the way he does that, that seems to irk me. Like he seems to hate kay fabe.
Not trying to take anything away from people that like Eddie either.

Take the latest promo. To me it feels like he was buring the locker room and the wrestling industry when he says stuff like "I'm not trying to get a character over," "I don't act," "Don't become a wrestler," or back when he used to be on commentary he'd refuse to say the names of signature moves.

OC deserves better than being permanently tied to the International Title.

The way I see the upcoming match cards are people sharing it to point out how many Women's matches/segments are planned.
AEW fans watch over that division like a hawk.

I definitely think they'll run back the Samoa Joe v Hangman v Swerve match at Revolution because that, to me, is the best in-ring way to highlight where Serve and Hangman are both at character-wise.
(And if we do a side adventure with Swerve/Hanger as tag champs, I wouldn't say no)

Forgot about this detail. I remember people being confused about why Hook was even in that 4way cause there was no way he was winning a title shot. Even if some of those guys changed opinions post-match (people were saying Hook "did well despite the odd finish"), it played into that perception well.
