...Adam Bomb?
His Khantron shows a nuke going off, the singlet, his size and everything. He's like a non-crappy Adam Bomb to me. That being said, I kinda marked for Adam Bomb back then.

He reminds me more of Wrath*.
*See what I did there?
With that said, I get the comparison, but Wardlow is already way over than any of Bryan Clarke's alias ever were and I feel like Wardlow has potentially to be long term, big time star for AEW if handled correctly.

Kronik was over like rover when WCW was on life support.

“Non-crappy” Adam Bomb??!!?!? Well, Face Adam Bomb was pretty crappy but I loved him as a heel.

Favourite guy on the roster. When he wins the TNT title at Revolution and MJF requests it, the fans will go crazy for the Powerbomb Symphony.

I’m curious as to which Powerbomb Symphony the crowd would pop for more… MJF or Cody Rhodes? That’s a great character beat though, Wardlow winning a championship before MJF does and the latter requesting that he hands it over.

I'll just mention for no reason that I'm currently fantasy booking Wardlow and Jake Hager in my version of AEW as a Kronik like tag team. Cause you all needed to know that.

He reminds me of Batista honestly.
The sharp, well dressed goon who will eventually takeover his mentor.

I don’t think Wardlow is quite where Batista was in 2005, but I can see the similarities. He has a lot of physical charisma and a good look. Plus in AEW a musclehead actually stands out because the rest of the roster is smaller. The biggest test is going to be how over he is when he turns on MJF. The initial turn should get a great reaction but will he be able to sustain it?

I like him. I can see the Adam Bomb and Batista comparisons, though he also reminds me of Big Bubba Rogers for obvious reasons.
