The fact that some of these havnt been made “All Elite” drives me crazy. Leyla Hirsch Bear Country Serpenico Cezar Bononi Red Velvet Varsity Blondes Nick Comoroto (I guess Bayleys ex boyfriend too) Ivelisse and Diamante Fuego Del Sol They're on lower tier deals according to Cody, deals which keep them locked down without WWE scooping them up outta nowhere, but not full "ALL ELITE GRAPHIC" deals. Though notably Aaron Solow and Nick Comorot both got Nightmare Family graphics, so there's that, they're probably on the road to an All Elite I don't even think Austin and Colton Gunn are full time contracts yet, this is just how AEW works through certain talents. In terms of others I would assume they're very close to full time, Hirsch and Velvet got new themes, and they wouldn't invest that kinda time in them without seeing a future where they're around a lot. Gonna assume with how they're pushing them, Bear Country are locks, Ivelisse and Diamante feel like they've been waiting for the division to fill out more or more of a direction for them, but time will tell. Fuego's got his contract match this Tuesday vs QT Marshall on DARK so... I guess we'll see then. I know you aren't an advid DARK guy so I figure you should know in case you wanna tune in there. I dunno. Seems like your main eventing Dynamite, working ppv matches, winning tournaments or having a match vs. SHAQ. They should probably give you a better deal or make it at least make it look like it. Good on Del Sol though.

Velvet is now part of Codys "inner circle" for playing pickup when Queen Brandi got pregnant, so shes more of a "when" than "If". Especially with a shirt on sale.
The rest, outside of "cant actually hit the move" Fuego should be signed promptly and thats why i believe Dark needs to be an official show, like how NXT is to main roster. Let these cats build their underground following, so casuals arent lost seeing them positioned on Dynamite.

Let these cats build their underground following, so casuals arent lost seeing them positioned on Dynamite. I mean DARK IS an actual show, watched by quite a lot of people. Not the entire Dynamite audience mind you, but I haven't really seen people come to Dynamite and be lost after being built up on DARK. They transition real well. Will Hobbs being a good example. Or Bear Country showing up and just wrecking shit. If they got a TV Timeslot would it be cool? Yeah maybe, but it's in the AEW Continuity, the wins and losses there matter, some story happens there, an the same will be said for Elevation. They have that second show already coming within this year as it is also. Maybe down the line TNT will want more programming from them, but DARK was always built to be a showcase show, and it's basically the easiest show for anyone to watch since all you need is Youtube and can watch it at any time. And comparing it to NXT, NXT was like this for a real long time, NXT was only available online or through WWE's Network, not even free on Youtube, and they had to do the same shit when it mattered for TakeOver's and the Main Roster callups. I feel like AEW has a leg up in that regard.

While smyes i completrly agree with capitalizing on the youtube gateway..but some of those people are ready, and theres only two damn hours for show time.

Yeah, there will be three soon though, and you can hear how much Tony is anticipating that second show and finally launching it because he knows how much talent he actually has. I'm curious if TNT will want to make the second show two hours down the line as well given all the talent they could potentially showcase, but even an hour is gonna be good for a ton of guys and girls. Couple that with Elevation and DARK, there are gonna be a lot of avenues to showcase the talent this year, more than last year.

I personally find segmenting rosters to be a weird fiction used by a company to manipulate it's audience into pretending there is variety under their monopoly. Dark and Elevation are perfectly great shows to break in new talent and allow them to get over, and eventually earn their shot a full time contract. Wrestling both the highest and lowest wrestlers on the AEW card. I mean, I love watching Dark every week. The show from two weeks ago has 440k views, so it's being watched. I don't think creating a new fictional promotion will help "casuals" know people on Dynamite any better.

I do apologize by using NXT in the sense of a brand, i meant in the sense that its essentially developmental put on tv

Frankie just got over Covid maybe a month ago.

Does anyone else really like Vary Morales? I like him. He has a good look, he's small but not in the sense where I feel like people are gonna debate him like Marko in "Should they be selling his moves?" etc.
He looks like they pulled Juventud through time, it's scary frankly.

Fuego's quickly becoming a guy who it's gonna be harder and harder to deny a win let alone a contract.

Question: Why did they stop using Pineapple Pete?
Also while I’m in this thread Watts a CWfH regular got one match months ago. He was probably in the area. I’d love to see him pop up again.
I know he’s a school teacher but I hope Robert Antony gets another run this summer.

I know he’s a school teacher but I hope Robert Antony gets another run this summer. Suge D/Pinapple Pete decided to go back to the indies once things started opening up a bit. There's no hard feelings on either side, so he could come back for a run in the future. Robert Anthony? I hope so. He's really good, and he's Mox's friend so I guess he'll probably show up again.

Savannah Evans I assume is a trainee of the Nightmare Factory or something but if not she hopefully is locked down because she has the potential to be real special given her size and presence
Nelson and Issacs are a really solid team who I wouldn't mind seeing more of.

I dont hate Fuego but I dont feel like he brings anything to AEW that they dont already have better A wrestling promotion is not a sports team. You can have 15 "power forwards" in a wrestling promotion as long as they're all safe in the ring and over. Fuego is over and safe in the ring, and he's really good too. He has a great character that could be used very effectively. He doesn't bring anything they don't already have, sure. That's not the point.
