Props to Kenny and TK for helping Britt becoming an interesting character. For as many people thinking Khan was just a money mark, he's showing a lot of skill running things so far. I'm sure a lot of people have helped contribute to AEW's success, but from what I've seen those ideas still have to have final approval from him. And yeah, props to Kenny, he too seems have a good head on his shoulder in terms of backstage stuff.

Khan really seems to want to see it succeed and not just seeing it as shiny toy to play with until he's bored like Dixie.

Tony Khan is like if one of the board regulars dads was a car bumper baron. At some point someone dug up a Smackdown house show report he sent in to the Observer.
One of the most endearing things he has ever done was talk about fantasy booking shows after one of the Dynamites. I want to read his e-fed work just on principal.

Baker may never be a good wrestler, but if she continues to do character work like she did tonight knocking Yuka's teeth out and applying a bloody Lockjaw, then it will not matter
She's cemented herself as an amazing heel.

I think the booking was great,but she was still sloppy
And her promo on the commercial break was reaaally grating.But if she manages to become decent,that segment will have her made

Thinking she's going to end up as one of those good characters, that will entertain you all the way up until her and the person she's feuding with have to have their blow off match. I think a simplified moveset and some more lessons for in ring heeling will help balance it though.

I think a simplified moveset and some more lessons for in ring heeling will help balance it though. I've said this before, I think part of the issue for Britt is she needs to make her moveset simpler. Sometimes less is more, and with some of the moves she does, it looks like she is going through the motion. Simple does not equal bad. I think with Tony people kind of forget/downplay that he already had the go ahead from his dad to create a wrestling company as it was a lifelong dream of his (the story from Talk is Jericho about Tony's Dad taking him to an ECW show is entertaining) but the Elite being free agents was a great opportunity for both parties and gave his project validity in the wrestling world... while Tony's involvement gave this validity in the business and entertainment world (I have heard multiple times how people LOVE Tony and want him involved in a lot of projects)

Yeah, if she’s not going to/be able to change her conditioning, a moveset change would make a lot of improvement.

MJF was exactly who I was thinking about when I wrote that. Just didn't want to compare the two least anyone think I'm putting her on the god-level tier of heeling as MJF as well lol

After last night, I can definitely tell for sure that she went to the Dr. Isaac Yankem school of dentistry.

I heard he was doing some stuff with ROH, but I don't know if he's signed any contract, but I never knew how much I wanted a Heel Britt Baker and Danhausen pairing in AEW based on their love of collecting other people's teeth.

Next month Baker will become the ultimate heel in revealing that she's the 1/10 Dentist who doesn't recommend your favorite toothpaste.
