I'm glad he's joined but yeah that shot was lame. I don't dig random companu shots. Just show me what you're doing in the company and be fine. That's my whole issue with Sandow's debut in TNA. Hope he does well here. Everyone that went to TNA and cut that type of promo got shit on for it so only fair to keep it consistent. It is the low hanging fruit. I mean, it wasn’t everyone. Christian Cage doing it? Completely justified. F***ing Curt Hawkins doing it? Not particularly, no.

The problem is it became a staple of what you expect every ex employee to do even if they didn't do it I rather an EC3 type character overhaul then a BS Sandow promo that is almost the ultimate cartoonish example of that promo

Besides that with all these ex-WWE people hitting the company, its not surprising to me. I just don't like it and I'll never like those shots. Hell, I remember back when Cody took that sledgehammer to the throne and people said that would be the end of the WWE references but alas, here we are with the continued mentions. If people like that stuff or they're cool with it then I don't care. That's not me though, I'll forever call it lame.

They obviously wanted the attention and never got it. If Miro and Kip Sabian challenge Michael HICKENBOTTOM and Paul Leveque to a match at the Alamo in a few weeks and Tony Khan puts up a million dollars, hey, I’ll ride that “This is dumb” train with you guys on full speed.

The only thing you’re known for is having a bad match with AJ Styles when he had great matches with everyone on planet earth.

It will never get that bad, AEW is smarter then that but that doesn't mean it can't be groan inducing either They keep their shots to little petty but funny things like the Twitch stuff. I find that old too but I can't blame them for playing to the base either that will eat that stuff up. It just isn't for me but it is one small comment that I don't see them expanding on in that area too much but Miro will pick and choose his shots I think since he is funny

I been tuning dude out I didn’t hear it but yeah, that seemed to be what happened. Stood out because, like, nobody else who signed from WWE did that. Heath and Young would be justified to do it more than Hawkins. And I like Hawkins, dude deserved more but...like, you got to win the tag titles at WrestleMania, dude.

Miro was one of 2 guys I felt were locks to go to AEW (the other being Cardona) and I am glad to see him. Letting him be the muscle for Kip i think is good for both of them and allows Miro to establish himself a bit, but im expecting big things.
As for the shot at WWE? Gotta remember Tony Khan isa 90s wrestling mark where all 3 US companies shot on each other. As long as being an ex WWE guy doesn't become the gimmick its all good. But of course i feel for a lot of these guys being used and treated with respect and succeeding must be therapeutic for them

Who the f*** does he think he is? I already hated that most professional wrestler nickname but I didn't know he cut a promo too, just know he been feuding with Willie Mack That's dumb. Like I hate that they are doing the same gimmick BS with Heath in Impact and not letting him shine as a new guy but regardless he's on TV. EY is champ again. EC3 is chasing around Moose All those dudes have legit gripes but you cut that promo? Nah, try again my friend. Also I was there at the Mania he won the tag titles, good moment for him and Ryder

I liked the blonde look. It's still him but it's a look that clearly separates him from his WWE run.

I'm so happy right now. I hope this will be a wonderful new beginning for Miro, goodness knows he (more than) deserves it after all the crap he's been put through.
