I'm in the minority of people who doesn't find big beefy boys just wailing on each other to be particularly interesting, so this is better for me. Give me the big boys throwing around some smaller guys and a better variation in styles any day. It's too bad Marko Stunt's back got messed up, because I would kinda love to see him come back for one night to have that kind of match with Hobbs.

Like... the hate for him seems extremely forced lately not gonna lie. I think he's looked a bit rough bumping like in a way where he needs a break, but he's clearly here to just make the match have more names, he ain't winning it lol

Or he's been with CJ as she goes through dealing with her staph infection.

Yeah I'm gonna imagine this is actually personal, I put it in the personal section of the injury list, assuming he's there for his wife right now because what she's going through is rough Same with Baker who took time off to help Cole

But yeah CJ almost had to have her finger amputated from the staff infection

I can’t believe how wrong I was about Miro and Keith Lee. I would’ve bet the house each of them would’ve eventually won a world title in either of the two big companies (black and gold aside) by now but no. Lee has the worst luck and Miro either has some crazy shit going on and/or refuses storylines that aren’t about other people banging his wife.
Shit truly bums me out. Two super unique big dudes who are probably closer to hanging it up than reaching the top.

I'll maintain that Archer gets booked Like That because of his age. He's 47. The fact that he wrestles the way he does at that size and age is nothing short of miraculous, and he doesn't look old at all. I have to think Khan is always booking him like he might not have him for much longer, and with that mindset, it makes sense that he'll wrestle short matches, pop up for a big match, have the big match, then disappear.

I think his push really ended after that Moonsault Botch vs Kingston in the World Title Tournament I think he was meant to win that match, but the injury forced Eddie to win, and given it was a neck injury scare, it's felt like Lance's push has been largely scaled back since and he's been focusing more on New Japan work and work within teams so he's not shouldering a load.

Archer himself also said right after that he tore his tricep I believe

So yeah, update on Miro: He's still a whiney bitch Signed a near five year extension through 2026 and has done nothing but bitch and barely show up since, I've legit never seen someone get job security and immediately piss his good will away so f***ing quickly but this last year has made me realize WWE booking might actually not have been the issue with why Miro' career is where it is.

They should instead do Twink Tomfoolery. Hook, Fletcher, Nick Wayne and who else Action Andretti.

Social media is ruinous for a big guy's aura we should be hearing exaggerated stories about Miro ripping lads' faces off in bars not hearing him whine about his boss not checking in on him.

I'm certainly not going to absolve WWE for some of the craptastic booking he got, especially on the way out. That said, it's clear as time has passed that Miro is never going to be the main event level guy and THAT part seems very much on him based on his attitude and his devotion to making CJ a thing despite mounting evidence that she was only ever good in the Ludmilla Drago role

I can't think of any other logical conclusion as to why he'd want to force it on us all again in AEW, and make it somehow even more unbearable to sit through when we know The Redeemer as a whole was great without... any of that attached to it! I didn't even mind CJ in AEW until I realized "Oh my god we're actually doing THIS again?", like pairing it with the fact we had a year long report that Miro kept turning down feuds because "That doesn't work for me, brother" and THIS is what he accepted to come back to makes it even worse. If he's injured right now, fair enough, but he's still bitching for no reason. Once again, dude got a long contract and job security and somehow that made him more miserable and hard to work with then he's ever been in his career.

I'm wondering if there was some sort of surprise planned for the match that fell through. Also, Keith and Miro were used as examples of two kinds of big guys that Tony would want to book and maybe not full on locks for the match. Tony's probably had the idea for a minute.
