I thought it was worth mentioning here since it also references firing people (plus I just thought it was hilarious and needed a thread to post it in), NoDQ posted this whole article on fixing AEW (including hiring guys like Dutch Mantell and Al Snow) and it said they need to fire Action Brunson: when I saw it on twitter it screamed "I dont like these guys, fire them because of my personal preferences."

Here's the thing, Tony and AEW isn't hurting for money and anyone he's not using is free to work indies and places like NJPW. So they get paid and get to at least still wrestle when not used, who cares how many people are on contract?

Bischoff fired Austin because he refused to do some promo work while injured, at least according to Austin. He horribly booked Austin though. Quite the contrary. Austin was book very well by Bischoff. Until Hogan and friends arrived

Rising indie star Action Brunson when he read an article saying he should be fired from a company he isn't even signed to

My first thought after seeing that Action typo is when did AEW hire Quinta Brunson?

He also got The Ass Boys over and helped Billy Gunn have a late career rennaisance.

Good job, NoDQ. Good job.

I'ts impressive how you can get a dedicated opinion column on a topic you're this uninformed about. Not even just saying things people might disagree with or on issues some might find controversial, but just like objectively incorrect and incomprehensible. I'd be embarrassed to publish that on my website.

Probably brought in a million hits sadly...The next one that dissects the Gimmick Battle Casino Royale and calls for the release of Maxwell Sheffield will do 2.... Think it is time to accept that we are leading into the movie Idiocracy becoming a historical re-enactment

The only thing I even agreed with in that article was the suggestion of bringing in Scott D'Amore to be involved with the booking, but even that is a non-starter due to his role in Impact.
I really think he could do good things with AEW's roster and budget.

Man...this dude don't got a clue. There's a reason why he hasn't been asked by Tony (or any company today) to run creative... Hey, he was in charge of creative on SmackDown for like 20 minutes.

Eric Bischoff wouldn't know a star if:
- He were stuck in the gravitational pull of one
- The heat of one was vaporizing him
- He saw one leading 3 wise men
- He touched it and it made him invincible for 15 seconds like in Mario

NoDQ was like *the* premiere spot for respectable thoughtful nuanced journalism when it comes to coverage in the form of Realplayer clips of backyard wrestlers getting hurt. Action Brunson vs. Super Humman when?

I respect a lot of what Eric contributed to wrestling... but to be honest, he doesn't have an eye for the future, just the immediate now. This man had success with certain stars of the day, whether it was wcw or tna, but has never cultivated the future of either company while he was there.
So to see him say something like that about Perry is on brand. He's just not credible when it comes to dealing with younger talent and has a proven track record of not having his finger on the pulse of the future.
