Can't really see why you'd bother bringing in either, especially since both have some kind of mysterious circumstances behind their release.

Parker's a big monster with upside if he's developed right, I don't know what mysterious circumstances surrounded his release though? I know Two Dimes was either he was too young or maybe a drug policy violation?

I mean it's dark and they film a ton of matches. See what they offer and go from there. It's almost certainly pay per appearance deals. Two Dimes showed he had potential and Parker has a look and could have something if he keeps learning. As for the releases, Karter failed a drug test but that shouldn't be a scarlet letter in my view against ever using him, especially since WWE themselves are open to bringing him back. And Parker's release was with a bunch of others and was chalked up to just not making enough progress. But he has to keep working and here's an opportunity.

When ROH gets restarted, both of them should be there.

Parker is only 23

Wow is that a freaky stat

Like I feel like most people who say "Why pick up Harland?" assume Harland was like... 35

I knew he was a baby cause of his haircut before the skinhead makeover. Dude looked like a wild older brother. 

[Cyno]

He really does look like a younger Brock Lesnar.

Just as a clarification, it's not actually Carter's AEW debut. He was actually a semi-regular on Dark during the Pandemic shows until he got signed to NXT.

Idk how good Parker can actually be, but his size, his look, if he's half of what Lesnar is, you take the chance

Him being the heavy on a team of smaller dudes also helps him stand out immediately.

Yeah, not many are going to remember that though especially since he changed his look up quite a lot

But he did get a Dynamite match too, where Ogogo killed him in like 10 seconds

We need more Kidd Bandit on Dark god damnit

Only thing I know about The Diamond Sheik is when he was last on Dark, Taz was a f***ing riot, so that's good enough for me.

You've never seen a commentator put over a random nobody like Taz did with the Diamond f***ing Sheik.
