I don't know where they go from here
If they aren't aligned with MJF they can't feud with him so who cares?

I like Ethan Page... but the group is not good.
Stokley seems like he has charisma from his twitter reactions but... I haven't really seen much from anything I've seen of him on Television... I don't know where the disconect is.

Ethan lost to Ricky, that means they put the brakes on the Firm act and/or they will quietly break them up...

It could be a blessing in disguise for Ethan. He’s barely in this thing. This gives him time to get elevated. He looked really good tonight, even in defeat.

Gunns are gonna feud with FTR more than likely Page I think gets a filler feud with Matt Hardy, which he wins Morrissey is the only one that sticks out to me as needing something to do. Does Wardlow/Hobbs/Joe need more meat?

Ethan Page has something there. But he was better in America's Top Team.
Big Cass has a presence about him but nothing overly special.
The rest? All channel changers for me. Generic and boring. Basically another Nightmare Factory.

They had purpose as MJF’s stable, now they’re just (yet) another faction.

I like Stokely, but he's had bad luck with stables whether it's WWE or AEW (him with The Baddies was okay, though).

Stokely Hathaway and Nas both united in rly wishing they didn't put money in to The Firm.

Stokely could talk me into thinking Serpentico could beat Wardlow.
I think they'll be fine. I also think that it's clear there were plans for The Firm that had to get blown up and scattered to the wind post-ScrumGate.
Shit happens, basically. Much as I think Orange Cassidy is making the All Atlantic belt something special, Ethan Page getting it would solve a lot of issues, and The Ass Boys are about to have the program of their lives with FTR.
The only real outlier of the group is, ironically, Morrisey, who in any other era would be the main focal point.

I still haven't really seen much of any reason to care the slightest bit about the Gunns to tell the truth. Even the Acclaimed story was just kind of, "Yes, they were perfectly competent at standing there doing nothing as warm bodies for the Acclaimed to make fun of. They didn't botch being equivalent to a tacky painting over someone's fireplace. Good job."

I'm of the opinion that Punk and MJF were going to double turn, and that was going to happen by Punk being the actual employer of The Firm. Since Punk's injury and BRAWL OUT prevented that from happening, it got changed to Regal turning on Moxley and MJF pretending he was a babyface for a couple of weeks. With The Firm's role in the story getting discarded for now, they don't really have much significance right now, unless they get revealed as still being in MJF's employ, but they don't really have a good point to do so now.

I guess you can say that The Firm thought MJF was...

Shocking that a group of random low card guys wasn't successful.

There you have it, Punk pretty much ruined the original plans for the Firm.

Man, I feel bad for Stokely, the man is GOOD, real good, but just seems to have the worst luck lately. It's crazy how the aftershocks of All Out/Scrum-gate echoed in ways I didn't even think of.

Damn, that sucks for Stokely. Dude is very talented, but just hasn't found the right fit yet. Though, being spared Punk vs William Morrisey is an effin god send.

That was a really good listen btw. He talks about how he had a contract extension offer with WWE he didn't take and his mental health struggles. Including when he voluntarily committed himself and his experiences with Florida's mental health system (it wasn't good).
