Apparently any video you do now is called a "Cameo" because I've seen several people say Sammy did a cameo for AEW but Sammy isn't on Cameo...he's worth 300+ Million, he's not slumming it for $100 video requests...srossi is right, Jericho prob asked him to do it..

I forgot to check Sammy Hagar's net worth before I posted.

You can say what you want about AEW main eventers giving too much to enhancement talent, but AEW Dark has some very good matches. Rey Fenix is fucking incredible. He had an outstanding match with Baron Black on last night's show.

He had an outstanding match with Baron Black on last night's show. AEW is a already in a position with too much talent and no way to highlight them all. Rey Fenix should be a main eventer. Instead he's in a tag team that has never even gotten a sustained push. And so many of these Dark guys should be signed, but what would you do with them other than put them right back on Dark?

I don't think they should ever do the bullshit brand split like Smackdown and RAW, but I do think there is a lot of talent that can support two shows. And if the second show can be on TBS, they could add one belt - the TV Title (or the TBS Title) and that Champion would only be on that show, and would defend the belt every week on TV. Once they lose the belt, they can roam between shows again. Same rule could apply to the TNT Champion. That would mean three singles belts (one per show, plus World Champ), and a tag title. They've already proven that they can support a tag division, but no need to have multiple tag titles. I know people may not think another singles belt is smart - but AEW isn't WWE, they know how to make it work without the secondary titles being meaningless. Hell, that TNT Belt was treated as almost an equal when Cody had it all summer and Mox was the World Champ. Now that Kenny Omega is playing the "traveling champ" role (which hopefully will continue) it would make a lot of sense to add a belt to the new show if you ask me.You can say what you want about AEW main eventers giving too much to enhancement talent, but AEW Dark has some very good matches.

One thing I *think* they understand in AEW is that you don't have to be on TV every week. WWE screws itself because the same people loads of TV time every single week. They can't even give a guy two weeks off to sell an injury. AEW rotate their roster, and it makes everything a little more fresh.

Dax Harwood and Jungle Boy just had one of the great free TV matches I’ve seen in about a year and a half or more. And to think that they’re both one half of a tag team and AEW gave them that time instead of having it be a throw-away. And then to see Tully Blanchard get involved after the match and assist on a slingshot suplex and spike piledriver was the icing on the cake.

It’s probably the vodka again, but the Good Brothers bringing back “Beat up John Cena” but changing it to “Beat up Jon Moxley” made me laugh.

And a very fun main event as the Young Bucks and Good Brothers reunite for the first time since their Bullet Club days to beat the Dark Order. Jon Silver again looked like a star before doing the job.

Tag teams have to split before they are allowed to compete as singles. Does Tony Khan know nothing about booking a tag division? I haven't even seen one tag team lose a handicap match in AEW.

You can add MLW to the loosely affiliated non-WWE wrestling universe. Kenny Omega is in an on-going Impact storyline and is also the AAA Mega Champion. The Lucha Brothers are the AAA World Tag Team Champions. Kenny Omega, the Lucha Brothers and Michael Nakazawa all appeared at AAA's TripleMania in December where Omega defended his AAA title against Laredo Kid, who defended the AAA Cruiserweight Title on MLW Fusion this week. Also appearing on MLW Fusion was TJP, the current Impact X-Division champion, who is also appearing regularly on New Japan Strong TV. Jon Moxley is the current IWGP United States Champion and appeared via video at Wrestle Kingdom. Impact Tag Team Champions The Good Brothers have appeared on the last two episodes of Dynamite, and their number one contenders are AEW's Private Party. The NWA women's champion is AEW wrestler Serena Deeb and NWA contracted Thunder Rosa is currently featured on Dynamite. Deeb defeated Rosa to win the title on UPW Prime Time.

Shaq cut a promo on Cody on "Inside the NBA" and officially challenged him and Red Velvet to a mixed tag match. So AEW is getting what they want out of this, and TNT is definitely helping them cross-promote in a big way.

Ibushi is the IWGP champion at the moment. Is there an English version of "NJPW Strong"?I know nothing about that show. Is it only available on "NJPW World" for viewers from North America?
