I think they’ve done all they can with the Wyatt Sicks. It had a short shelf life and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not a thing in a few months.

Very possible. I think it might still have some life as the occasional special attraction and TV feud that leads to a party match.

But doesn't have anything beyond that. Not going to be a featured act that gets on PPVs

Yeah, I don’t see it as a weekly thing and there’s only so much you can do with it. Hell, if Bray couldn’t get it to where it needed to be, I don’t think the rest of these guys can.

They need to tone it down and just normalize themselves a bit and it could work.

Gunther's current title run might just be the most boring world title run of all time. His sarcastic James Bond villain shtick isn't working. You can only tell your challengers they aren't on your level so many times. Guy is fantastic once the bell rings but that's about it.

There is also the argument that knowing someone cool is showing up draws more views then pure surprises.

There should be a balance, but I'm not sure Penta needs to be a surprise.

It's also completely out of the box as along with the merch they have him actually in the merch now.

Ehh. I'm of the opinion that you try to do something must see every week and surprise your audience regularly.

If you advertise everything then I know what weeks I don't need to tune in. Which I guess falls under, "There should be a balance." I agree Penta doesn't need to be a surprise though. There's guys your audience knows and you surprise with, and guys your audience doesn't know, and you load up with introductory vignettes to sell them on "Here's why this guy is awesome."

The only thing more jarring is that ring mat...

Dakota might as well stay with WWE and make a solid paycheck.

She's had enough injuries and probably heard enough horror stories about the rehab process in AEW by now.

The one thing I'll give him is they've booked him terribly. Beats Orton clean but then shakes his hand at the end which is a babyface move. Then goes into a feud with Sami Zayn where he ducks him for weeks (a heel move) because he says Sami isn't on his level despite Sami having a win over Gunther at WM 40. Illogical booking Gunther should of welcomed the chance to get payback on Zayn for WM.

Then loses to Rhodes at Crown Jewel in a ridiculous concept of the Crown Jewel champion. Someone was coming out of that match looking worse than they did going into it.

Should of booked him as this ass-kicker who speaks sparingly and takes on all comers and eventually he would of naturally transitioned into a babyface champion that fans would get excited about appearing. When Gunther appears, I would want the fans to feel "oh s^%$, HE'S here, someone is getting their ass whooped" when he appears on Raw or SD.

I found Cody's before KO even more boring

I find Cody's run hard to judge because it's been so intertwined with the ongoing Bloodline story. It's like he's just one part of an ensemble cast, albeit a main cast member. His non-Bloodline feuds have been just OK, nothing really memorable about them.
 
About a week old but reminded of it because Solomonster did a video...

Jeff Hardy recently suggested that if he had his head on straight in his 20s and 30s the way he does now, he could've possibly been bigger than John Cena.

I hope he's just using a figure of speech and not serious... Because comments like that make me think he doesn't have his head on straight now.

That's not how things work in this site. You're supposed to provide link because HFBoards posters are not expected to do the work. Seriously though, I don't have an account on twitter so tweets show up in random order.

You can type Corey Graves into google. Several articles there that pop up instantly.
