Billy/Austin Gunn vs. Santana/Ortiz set for AEW Dark

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

SPOILER: Click to show

{Spoiler}They faced Spears and Preston Vance instead and still won

I also thought Austin signed with ROH. He won the Top Prospect Tournament a few months ago so it seemed like ROH had plans for him but this is / was 2019 ROH.

Yeah, I think they signed him at one point, but must've run out or something, since I don't recall them saying they released him or anything.

Yeah, he was working for them at one point, guess maybe that deal ran out, or something.

I quite look forward to this match, both to see how Austin's shaping up, and because I think using Billy a bit more would be good. Not like I want him to be a fixture, but he's someone who has currency with people, can obviously still go, and has a great size. Wouldn't be shocked if they had him put over Wardlow or the like due to the latter point.

Mr.Ass and Son would be a great team name.

Mr. Ass and Ass Jr.

We love to love 'em, we love to kick 'em
We love to shove 'em, we love to stick 'em
Love to flaunt 'em, we love to watch 'em
We love to pick 'em, And we're gonna kick 'em
Cause we're assmen, Yeaahhhh, we're assmen

He looks like he stepped out of a cloning machine somewhere.

Something happaned and the match was cut from the AEW DARK Tapings. There wasn't even mention of it on the show.

So not only did the match get changed from its original intended matchup but that matchup now is seemingly being stricken from the record. Don't know if this was an ROH or WWE interference but after all that... Gunn Club is lost.

Just read that Santina and Ortiz had to be rushed from the arena before the match,about 5 hours,never returned.

They faced Shawn and someone else and won.But I assume they didn't want to make that official.

In any case, they're playing this way too close to the chest for my liking. Cards are subject to change, shit happens, but tell people.

I guess if not a permanent change that is why they uploaded Dark instead of being a"premiere".To not cause expectations.

Or could you could have had Tony say "ain't happening for private reasons"

Uuuuh... why did Santana and Ortiz need to be rushed from the arena and why did they never come back?? First I heard this, where's the story?

Ah my bad it seems I got speculated as news. They have gone AWOL from social media since that day and I think it was just a few fans reporting they left and never returned.

Whatever this issue is it could easily be solved by having them wear masks and calling them Señor Badonkadonk & El Hijo Badonkadonk.

[Tenshigure]

Kinda disappointed that the match got cut completely from Dark, hopefully they reschedule the original match soon and keep it in the show.

A dark match too dark for AEW Dark.

But is Austin Gunn an ass man?

I prefer to think of him as a Young Gunn.

A Smoking Gunn.

A Sonuva Gunn.

A Love Gunn.

Maybe a Gunn Pun.

[Mozenrath]

Makes sense, though they probably should have done a promo package or something to make up for the time, or been clearer beforehand.

Either way, glad it wasn't some litigation thing or an injury, etc.

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

Yeah this sounds good. It's weird that it seemed to be advertised beforehand though, albet not by AEW people seemed to know about it

Sounds like Gunn Club vs PNP might be an actual DARK Match for this week
