I truly didnt see it coming but it made sense considering it started way back when he showed up late to save Mox from Cage and Starks.

I love how even the stables get these graphics:

Bleh. Wanted him to be a babyface and I'm not feeling the Team Taz thing at all.
I'm sure they'll book it well and it'll be good for him in the long run, just not a direction I'm interested in.

I like it, it even explains how he never actually attacked Team Taz with the chair and they simply backed off, it was all a ploy. Hobbs probably needs a mouthpiece. He has a great face story, but I like Team Taz with a third member, because it opens up more options Hobbs and Cage as a tag team could kill some people

I think Hobbs will benefit from the stable. I know many aren't feeling Cage right now but being paired with Taz has done a lot for Starks.
I also get the feeling this gives Cody a chance to team with Dustin and QT for a Bunkhouse Stampede 6 man match

I don’t know how far he would go as a generic baby face. So this will give him more personally and give team tazz a bit more depth as well.

Hobbs lost the momentum he had when Mox put him over in his promo the moment Archer got the covid and the 6 men tag match got scratched, I feel that if Archer didnt get the covid then Hobbs wouldve remained face.

Makes me wonder if this still would have occurred if that Mox/Darby/Hobbs vs Cage/Starks/Archer match actually took place.
Either way, Hobbs will definitely get a boost with Taz as his hype man.

I don't know that the canceled six-man really had much to do with the planning. That six-man would still have preceded Hobbs challenging for the FTW title, which was itself followed by Taz's offer to join the group. Taz making the offer despite the ongoing feud is still the definitive turning point.

I love Hobbs and I legit kayfabe got sad when he turned. As I said in the Rate thread, I felt like a sad 12 year old seeing Barry Windham turn heel.
Buttttt, it's a good move for him, because he gets to build himself as a heel, and with Taz. I think a team of Ricky Starks and Will Hobbs, with Taz as a mouthpiece, is really exciting.

It sorta makes sense. Maybe if Anderson or whoever had made a play, it'd be one thing, but as it is, he will benefit from someone giving him some direction, and it is kind of what I suspected when Taz would insist Will had not answered his question, since he hadn't. In kayfabe, this makes a lot of sense for Hobbs, I think, and works for the time being.

Hobbs needs a mouthpiece for now and it's a lot easier for a silent killer to be a heel over a face. Pairing him with Taz gives him that mouth piece and Taz is damn good at what he does. This also puts him in contention for the TNT Championship.
I am sad that he went heel as I think he does have a lot of potential to be a great face, too. But let him hone his craft as a heel and then he can earn the momentum he had back before Archer's COVID derailed that six man tag.

I wonder who will join Cody and Darby to fight Team Taz or it will just be the Natural Nightmares?

Personally this is the most I've enjoyed Taz on commentary in a long time, especially on DARK, and I feel like he is a great promo guy for at least Cage while he lets Starks shine on his own

A couple of ways it could go Natural Nightmares because they're actually ranked in the tag division Gunn Club could also possibly get a match, which plays into how Taz actively does not like Gunn Club on DARK Might even be Lee Johnson who Hobbs kills on Dynamite next week, he's in Nightmare Family too.

I hate his mannerisms. He's a good commentator but i've never bought into him in this role especially with that FTW title which is just a big honor to how tough Taz was
