My guy, you almost f***ing 30. Yeah... I really do hope he gets the time he needs to recoup and feel better. All that being said, each and every step of this has him saying something real high school, and that's been a huge thing about him.

No... please... don't go.
Oh well.
Eddie was right - there's a bunch of people who do what he does better than him on the roster already.
Maybe he can learn some psychology while he's away, and learn how to keep his f***ing tongue in his mouth for more than 3 seconds.

In addition to some rejected material and a few public ass-showings, dude's flaws as a performer kind of just became too much to ignore. I remember seeing him on WrestleCircus shows in like 2017 and he doesn't feel like he's really progressed much since then, even after years of rolling with Jericho. There's obviously other priorities right now, but dude's really coming up on an age where beyond maturing mentally, he's really got to be maturing as a performer before he condemns himself to never realizing the potential he's been coasting by on.

Remember seeing him at WrestleCircus and VIP Wrestling and thinking he was definitely going to be a world champion somewhere.
He's there with the Lucha Brothers as the AEW talent who's career has gone the least how I expected it to.
He's definitely handled some things poorly over the last couple years and could use the time away. Hope when he returns they've got a better plan for him, and he's mature enough to make it work.

its really strange just how easy it is to dislike him with his moveset
just goes to show that you can truly turn anyone heel or make them disliked, no matter what impressive moves they pull out lmao.
wish him the best, don't really personally care about anything except him being more careful with the people he's in the ring with

He should go away for a little bit and think about how he wants to present himself moving forward. This thing with Tay Conti has really killed his aura as one of the 4 pillars.

Hopefully his time away helps him to mature. Sometimes people forget the guy is nearly 30.

Once people started disliking him, they started paying attention at how bad a seller he was or how reckless he could be in his sports to the detriment of his opponent's well-being.
And then there's his immaturity outside the ring, which is the cherry on top. Especially when you get heat with a fan favorite like Eddie Kingston. I don't think the guy is irredeemable or anything, but he makes it really easy to dislike him in a non-kayfabe way. I hope for his sake that if he takes a hiatus, he really does take the time to improve himself and mature.

Precisely. At the very worst possible moment all of his weaknesses/faults got worse

I think the big issue Sammy's run into in regards to his in-ring work is just like... We've seen it? He does some crazy shit and some highspots, and that can be cool for awhile, but when you get past that he has nothing else. He can't sell, there's no real rhythm to his matches, his finisher sucks, he just goes out there and does crazy shit then he either wins or he loses and either way it's extremely hard to find any enjoyment in it. I kind of legit struggle to think of a match he's had I'd actually recommend. Guess the answer a lot of people would snap to is the Cody match but even as it was happening I thought that was a completely braindead chore of a match to get through that had like one cool spot (that for some reason wasn't the finish) and otherwise just meandered on with a bunch of meaningless bumps that weren't sold for a second.

He needs to mature a ton if he ever wants to be the top star he thinks he is.

Ditch the bitch (kayfabe only) and we will thank you. No... please... don't go. Oh well. Eddie was right - there's a bunch of people who do what he does better than him on the roster already. Maybe he can learn some psychology while he's away, and learn how to keep his f***ing tongue in his mouth for more than 3 seconds. If you are tired of seeing it, I have room for it.

Right now the dude is a goon in a stable whose main purpose is shameless worship of Chris Jericho, a serious regression. Taking time off is for the best.
