Darby and Sammy.

So once again these two excellent singles wrestlers are wasted in a faction based multi match.

Anyone wish AEW would focus more on their singles potential?

With their roster now, there’s unfortunately not enough room for everyone to get a featured singles match.

Once again? Darby has been in high profile singles matches the last 2 pay per views. And in the others he’s teamed with one of the most legendary wrestlers in American television history.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

They just main evented Dynamite.

[Mozenrath]

I'm fine with it for the time being. People have complained, with valid reason, about Sammy not having any angles that weren't piggybacking off of Jericho in a while, so this at least remedies that a bit.

I do kind of wonder if Miro ends up mauling Sammy in the nearing future, but we'll see.

Would rather we got Sammy v Andrade or Darby v Andrade at the PPV (or is it PLA?) than this match but hopefully will be fun.

They should have really built up a rival for Sammy on this 2nd reign but obviously not. Assuming he’s getting MJF after Revolution if MJF steals Wardlow’s title shot.

Sammy has literally defended the TNT Title for like five weeks straight since the Ladder Match, one of which was main eventing with Darby

Darby's last two PPV matches were singles matches which were some of the top rated matches on those cards

Idk where this "Once again" shit is coming from, but it's not correct, nor are Sammy and Darby wasted in a Trios match which is sure to be really fun. Quite literally playing into the storylines and interactions which have gone on for weeks, so I also don't see how it compares to the ATT feud either where people complained Sammy felt invisible.

Darby faced Punk in his return match and then MJF in singles matches on PPV. He’s doing alright.

Sammy was trapped in the Inner Circle and he really needs a high profile singles feud because his babyface character is bland. He needs more than just video game style matches where he does insane high spots. Give him a hot feud to sink his teeth into and see what he’s got.

[Nr1Humanoid]

It is true, they have had great singles matches lately, a trend I feel they should have continued, with feuds to go with it, rather than muliple matches. Just a personal opinion of course.

[Kalmia]

I could honestly do without this trios match, but I don't think it's a sign of their singles potential being wasted. Sammy is literally a singles champion right now and is constantly defending his title. There's a whole ladder match happening just to get Sammy a new singles challenger.

[Xxcjb01xX [PIECE OF: SH-]]

The Trios match is simply the next step in multiple developments, mainly with AHFO crumbling. It's necessary, it gets six big names on the PPV, and it should be a damn fun match

I know people wanted a triple threat for the belt, but that doesn't really seem like the direction, especially if Sammy isn't dropping it yet

[dreamghost]

This makes me wonder if we will ever see a fatal 4 way between the pillars?

I think so.

[Lizuka #BLM]

Not seeing the issue here, especially since Sammy has been defending the TV title pretty damn often. He's had the thing for more or less a month and a half (counting the interim run) and counting the unification match has already defended it five times.

The problem I have is Sting. Zero clue what the appeal is supposed to be in seeing an old guy do the same spots over and over again except at half the speed and also he never loses and yet despite this just inexplicably is never positioned for a tag title shot. Just wish they'd either get to a goddamn point with him or stop booking him.

Would be an ideal match to get the title off MJF when he eventually has it.

[eJm]

If it were me, I'd put Darby and Andrade in the ladder match instead of Cassidy and Starks and continue the fued with that but the 6 man is fine as an idea and they all should really be on the card considering how much they've been on TV lately.

[clifford]

With the size of AEW's roster now, its impossible for every major player to get their own singles match at a PPV. The TNT title seems to be more of a television championship than a PPV one; its only been defended at 4 out of the 8 PPVs since its inception.
