So, that makes his weird little romance with Allie a bit more awkward. I wonder if AEW in their continuity boner, will explain that one

As someone who actually met QT and his wife on the Jericho Cruise, I've been laughing at that angle the whole time because of it.
I'm astonished they actually showed QT's wife as a plot point so soon after it concluded.

I mean he's about to turn into a bastard heel so I'm sure it won't matter, but what I assume is that nothing sexual or overly romantic happened because Allie's also married, but she became a "Honey Trap" for QT, gassing him up, saying he was amazing, using his money to get herself nice things at his expense, etc.
It's not like it was a full on infidelity storyline, it was more she was becoming or pretending to be his flirtacious manager for her own benefit, before she turned on him when that stopped being a thing. QT acting chivalrous but also getting egotistical as Allie inflated his ego, which has kinda spun into the current storyline itself.
Genuinely don't think they even kissed once on camera but I could be wrong.

I think this and Blade are why they never went *too* explicit with it. Like, I don't think they ever so much as kissed.

It’s a definite plot hole for now (though maybe they’ll explain it somehow next week).

Hell it sort of fizzled out when Bunny kinda just stopped tagging with Brandi and the turn was not in front of QT (I think it was Covid or injury) sure the revenge match was great but still sometimes you just gotta move on.

They could just do this to make him look like an absolute dirtbag.

It's definitely a plot hole ON AEW's part but this is one of those situations where just Don't mention it and should be ok. It'll only be a problem if they make it one.

AEW loves insider references so QT has to yell at Cody when he turns -
"I thought you were my friend!"
I'll mark so hard if he does.

Maybe QT was having marital issues at the time, and the Bunny stuff brought him and his wife closer together after therapy. The simping on his part was bad, but they worked through it.

It is a plot hole. But that angle I feel was barely a thing to begin with. And it was kinda killed with QT getting Covid. Plus his character is turning into a prick so it’s not out of the realm of possibility he was cheating or at the very least had a wondering eye.

That ended up in the same bin as the Nightmare Collective.

I agree that it's a tiny bit of a plothole (or, at the very least, a glaring pivot in on-screen character), but I don't think the angle with Allie was really a romance. It was more QT advocating for her with the Nightmare Family because he had an obvious (but clearly unreciprocated) crush on her. Allie leveraged this to her advantage, but there was never really a romantic element to it on television. I'm not sure they ever even as much as held hands from what I recall. Developing a crush on an extremely attractive coworker, and spending more time with that coworker than they probably should, is something that married men do on a daily basis.
Especially if QT is being portrayed as an insecure, jealous, heel now, I don't think it's the world's most glaring issue to just ignore it as this new story plays out, because the whole thing really isn't even out of character for how QT is currently being portrayed.

Cool to see how things work like that. Seems similar to the Vince McMahon booking until the wee hours of the morning strategy. Maybe QT is his Bruce.

Oh, for sure, it would be ridiculous for me to suggest that that it wasn't at least implied that that QT was trying to hook up with Allie, and that Allie wasn't being a little touchy-feely in response. It's just easily explainable as QT being WAY too friendly with a hot coworker, and Allie being flirtatious to leverage gifts and things out of QT. I wouldn't be surprised if, sans COVID, the storyline ended with Allie breaking up the Nightmare Family. In a way, QT's association with her was still the catalyst for the breakup angle, because it was the first sign of self-absorbed QT. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if AEW deliberately wanted to elicit this discussion from the segment, since QT was so emphatic with the "THATS MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER I DO ALL OF THIS FOR THEM," when just a few weeks ago he was actively groveling over Allie. It makes him look like an even more hypocritical and selfish asshole, who clearly isn't REALLY just in it for his family.
