The trouble is, that's also most of Shaun's work retroactively (like, the Devlin/Starr/WALTER videos are some of the best packages I've ever seen. Can I ever watch them again? F*** no) so this sort of fits in that wheelhouse. I get Starr and Devlin, did WALTER also do something f***ed up? I admittedly don't know much about his personal dealings, so if he's been accused of anything, I am late to the party on that. Oh, nothing to do with him, just that his time in OTT is basically associated with Starr, Devlin and (for a brief second) Ospreay so it’s not even guilt by association as much as highly unfortunate.

Ah, that makes sense, yeah. Like, when the least problematic person involved in the feud is Low-Ki, who he teamed with on his OTT debut (Timothy Thatcher was teaming with him too but, like, he hasn't had the reputation the others had), that's a lot of stuff in hindsight that can't be watched again. But I'll stop messaging about it because, like, the only thing associated with any of them is Shaun and I'm just happy the dude's getting work.

They have announced Ricky and Kerry Morton (with Robert Gibson) vs Brian Pillman Jr and Brock Anderson (with Arn Anderson). That scuttles the rumored Flair match since the Rock n Roll are already booked. Is Flair facing a mystery man? It really seems like they would have the match in place before starting all of this since it’s the basis of the whole show. I wonder if their trying to get Sting involved. I’ve wondered about that myself. There’s a lot of ways they could go with this. I hope they find the best and safest option.

Flair will be announcing his opponent tonight at 6:05pm according to his twitter. The way it is sounding it may be a singles match. Everyone was rumoring a tag match but doesn't sound that way anymore. Any guesses? Sting, Hogan, or Jericho could all be possibilities. He tagged WWE in his twitter post so maybe it's a current superstar?

If it’s somebody in the current WWE it’ll end up being Ric and AJ Styles vs. Andrade and Lethal or something.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Jerry Lawler.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Jerry Lawler. That's been my bet all along, too. He's also probably the best choice from a safety standpoint as absolutely ridiculous as that is to say

I want Ric Flair to wrestle an hour long death match, complete with C4s and florescent light tubes.

I mean, I hate to sound cold, and I hope he doesn't die in the ring or seriously hurts himself, but at some point it's hard to be that concerned. He's a grown man and so is everyone else participating, and they all seem to be doing it with their own free will.

They just posted a pretty wild video where Ric gets busted open. Long and short:
Ric Flair and Andrade El Idolo vs. Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal is Ric’s last match.

So you're going to have a WWE employee teaming with an AEWcontracted wrestler vs a man who may potentially die in the ring and another AEW wrestler...
Like ignoring everything else, this feels like a Tazz vs Mike Awesome freak event.

Oh and Flair bled in the documentary vid hyping the match, and he is likely doing it at the show...
