OK, for all the shade that people threw at the Dark Order for not being well explained, I think that the problem is even worse for the SCU, as someone who hasn't seen any of Being The Elite, I can still understand the gimmicks of people like Omega, Hangman and such.
But what in the heck are the SCU apart from saying "This is the worst town I've ever seen."? All three of them are good workers too, even if Daniels is getting up their in age, but could someone give me a heads up on the SCU and what they're all about? Because, honestly, at least we know that the Dark Order are a creepily cheery cult and the SCU are just some middle aged dude's who have connections to California?

They're like Primo and Epico, expect travel agents for sunny, Southern California as opposed to Puerto Rico. Duh.

Not really much to explain with them. They're three partners who wrestle good. They don't really especially have a gimmick that needs elaborating, other than being from Southern California.

They're like Primo and Epico, expect travel agents for sunny, Southern California as opposed to Puerto Rico. Duh. I hate how accurate this is. It's an odd case where they are very believable characters - I think we have all known people who are a little too happy to bring up how cool their hometown is - and can talk just fine...yet they feel like nobodies. It might be that their characterization doesn't translate to their in-ring the way most of AEW's roster does? |

It’s a good point and even as someone that’s been following BTE, I feel their identity has been slightly muddled for a little over a year now.

SCU are a means to get Scorpio Sky over as a next big thing solo star in much the same way the Shield were for Roman.
I don't mind them getting Scorpio over, what bothers me is that they took Daniels and Kazarian, a duo with a long history of being fun to watch and made them dull.

It is weird I like then as individuals but as a team they are so bland.

Three Southern Californians who love their region and are fond of calling other areas of the world “the worst town they’ve ever been in,” which ironically gets them cheered.

This. And if you’re charismatic enough, sometimes you don’t need a hyper detailed Lucha Underground gimmick. They just go out and kick ass. |

Professional wrestling veterans who are militantly Southern Californian, only they are now playful about it because they aren't heels any more.

SCU is terrible. The individual parts are good but damn they are corny as hell. When they beat the Bucks you could hear a pin drop in the arena.
Drop the belts (ASAP) and have Sky as a solo.

In the context of AEW they're just 3 dudes who have been wrestling for a long time.
In the context of my brain they're like if you stacked dry wall on top of dry wall on top of dry wall.

Daniels is someone I have absurd amounts of nostalgia for and even he does absolutely nothing for me in this group. They're so dull it's incredible. |
