I mean, there are other reasons they might be wary of bringing in the Briscoes, too, considering how bad it already gets in the replies any time Tony Khan tweets about Jay Lethal. It would be much worse for the Briscoes. Is it bad when he talks about Lethal? Idk when the last time he spoke about Jay was on Twitter. Most I see these days on there about Lethal is literally people complaining that he isn't on TV more... ironic. Maybe it has subsided some, but the announcement, among other things, also often draws in SpeakingOut references due to Taeler Hendrix and Kelly Klein.

Highly unlikely but even if, Would Bret even be able to? He been dealing with Cancer the past couple years I met Bret at a signing a few months, he seemed capable of managing someone. JR just dealt with cancer, and Jake has health issues, so Bret could work if he felt up to it. The rumor was Bret worries about how Vince would treat Natalya if he showed up for AEW again. But Dax is taking his shot. Bret would also be good timing for the Owen Tournaments to show up. If he can handle the travel I'd say do it, he and FTR have a hell of a history together already lol

Well, at least we can now officially say the Pinnacle was a complete bust of a faction, a "wouldn't it be neat if...?" idea with absolutely no plans past feuding with the Inner Circle. I don't think they even once appeared together with their theme and tron past the end of that storyline, although MJF used them as goons a few times in backstage segments.

They fired Tully after claiming he hadn't brought them any success the past year Outside of the AAA belts, they have a point Also this might be why The Briscoes weren't brought in if they've been planning a turn for FTR based on what SRS has said, don't expect the Briscoes anytime soon

He did say he was going to drop a story on the situation but due to the ROH sale he is holding off due to moving parts. But all he keeps saying when asked about it in the fightful streams is based on what he's hearing do not expect the Briscoes in AEW for a long time

The Pinnacle did hardly anything as a group.

The rumor was Bret worries about how Vince would treat Natalya if he showed up for AEW again. But Dax is taking his shot. Natalya literally gets her ass beat by rookies in like 3 seconds like a worse version of Dolph Ziggler vs NXT people, pretty sure she can’t get any lower. The return of farting Natalya.

I would love to see Bret manage FTR. That would be insane.

They haven't referred to FTR as the AAA Tag Champs for some time and they don't carry them to the ring anymore.

It would be much worse for the Briscoes. I think this is why the Briscoes arent there, and why Lethal is not in any major story. The blowback from hiring Lethal was too much. I think Lethal becomes a part of ROH, and that's that.

Better FTR turns face than Tully, Arn being one is bad enough. The rumor is, started by Dax himself, FTR want Bret Hart to manage them. I have to admit, I'm looking forward to heel Jericho and 2.0 creating some Canadian comedy magic. Highly unlikely but even if, Would Bret even be able to? He been dealing with Cancer the past couple years Heavens, poor Bret just can not catch a break.

Have FTR ever been faces?
Also I’m thinking they stick in The Pinnacle for a bit but if Bret shows up MJF won’t want any of it and kick them out or something. Which will just leave Spears as MJF’s lackey.

Pinnacle and Inner Circle ended the night William Regal make his Dynamite Debut.
They didn't want to get murked by the Real Man's Man.

Worth noting that Dax talked about wanting to be with his family, then Tully talked shit about his family, which also contributed to the firing. Tully was the one who talked about Ole Anderson's family in the nwa too Tully: That snot-nosed kid... Ole explodes.
