AEW has Officially Become Wardlow's World | AEW Dynamite, 3/9/22 

Much better than expected. This was really solid, looking forward to a bitter feud with MJF.

Referencing the animal the thumbs down is coming solid Tribute and promo too

@@peterarvanitis6497 Nah, that'd be lame. He should do his own shit, he's an artist.

Tony Khan has put a lot of trust and effort in positioning Wardlow. But Wardlow himself deserves so much credit for delivering

@@jonathanoscategui2678 mjf deserves credit too he made wardlow the sympathetic babyface because he's such an asshole

@@rakhibisht9324 no he's not and that promo of Batista's happened because he forgot his scripted line.

@@jonathanoscategui2678 I think it was obvious he have trust after match with Cody. I.mean he was new there, and Cody trusted him.with that leap of faith from top of cage.

Definitely, even right down to MJF and those associated with him, made this story work so well

Vince is happy as well

@@zachryzimmerman4800 Vince would turn him into dumb oaf meathead that barely talks

@@zachryzimmerman4800 ofc he is

@@zachryzimmerman4800 Vince waste every wrestler to his own benefit , i hope he wont go His company, His character Will be ruined...

He IS a megastar!

@@VILLAINOFYOURDREAMS not yet, but he will be. This is his breakout year for sure.

@@notgonnapay Spot on haha.

He’s the second coming of Batista. The look, the presence, the power, the charisma. Soon, it will be Wardlow’s World…and we’ll all just be living in it. 🌍

and Mason Ryan this is Batista 3.0 .. 2.0 meaning Mason Ryan

@@troylandzerep8045 Batista is the icon but Wardlow is better than mason though, Batista turn on triple h will still be considered greatest turn on the leader

Unless he becomes injury prone I believe he'll be ok

In all fairness Alex Riley wasn't all that good in the ring.

200th like

You know his future is safe because he's in AEW.

Absolutely.

i really hope he wins the aew title this has captured me i am a big fan now

@Kuldeep Karhana MJF needs a karma storyline until he becomes a joke that he is ever since. He may be a fantastic heel but I want a storyline where this heel continues to fall down.

He needs a title world title soon!!

@Kuldeep Karhana Nah . MJF can lose without making him look weak. That's good pro wrestling storyline does. And MJF will not have back to loses since he will have few matches with a bunch mid carder in between.

@@natejac4744 heard of Happy Corbin?

@@Flab2Fit No he doesn't. MJF is not that good of a wrestler in the ring.

He gets women of all ages wet you can hear them screaming..That's the sign of a top Babyface

Giving me Batista vibes when he was with Evolution

@@jaykayslay8281 ong

@@jaykayslay8281 the thumbs down will solidify this

I’d rather that Hook and Wardlow unite as a tag team and face Jungle Boy/Luchasaurus for the Tag Titles

@@cesareaugusto9677 that is not a bad idea

@@nobodybutsunder Right? 2 of the steadily-rising AEW stars teaming up? Makes sense to me!

Hook vs mjf

And it would also break HOOK lol

That's what I've been saying. Cage will be the new guy for mjf

Cage is too good to play lackey to MJF, MJF already has Spears & FTR, he doesn't really need more people

Cage will never be associated with MJF

His character is much more nuanced than a year ago. Wardlow will lose though, with MJF planting a ring into his face. *HANGMAN STORY* Maxwell will face Hangman for the World Title, beat him with help from Pinnacle as Hangman is left all alone (He got a Dark Order Disappointment thing going). Pinnacle will shove it in his face next, claiming how without friends Hangman is nothing, he can never do it on his own. Which is a huge turning point for Hangman, because it makes sense. Hangman was on high when he was with The Elite, then when they broke up, he dropped from sky. Then got up with help from Dark Order. He may not needed either Elite or Dark Order to win his matches, but he needed that external validation to fulfil his dreams of getting to top. And boom, just like that, we have the next redemption arc for Hangman to face that develops his character, just when we thought we got a finished product. Hangman goes back to the beer drinking lad again, except this time he's enraged and unleash hell upon *bad* guys in AEW. The story is not another "you people turned on me" thing. Hangman is still a crowd pleasing good guy, except this time he doesn't listen to them when they say enough is enough. He attacks bad guys whoever gets in his way, like Jericho Appreciation Society, and other factions in the company. He is much like Thor after he lost Loki, he is focused on unidentified rage while not hurting good people. *Hangman vs Moxley* Then it goes on for a year or so until he faces Jon Moxley at Revolution 2023/2024. The story begins shen Jon claims that he understands the rage within Hangman so well, and Jon is a man who knows what it feels like to be left out by his friends, falling behind and everyone telling him he's not good enough without them (Shield). The two have a badass match at Revolution, it's not about winning, it's about who hurts the other more. Hangman unleashes his rage, but Moxley pushes him to a level that Hangman cannot just accept. Moxley plays the devil, like Bray Wyatt from WrestleMania 30 asking Cena to attack him with chair. Hangman wins like Cena, ending it with a definitive empathy ; Buckshot Lariat. And just like that, Hangman has found the true limits to his self. Moxley represented the devil in Hangman's mind. And by fighting and winning, Hangman overcame the devil, without any friends to mentally support him. *Moxley vs Bryan* This starts issue between Bryan and Mox though. We know the history between Bryan and Hangman, so when Moxley occupied himself with Hangman, Bryan felt disrespected. The issue brews for few weeks, with Bryan playing not tagging Moxley in matches, etc.When confronted, he finally demands a match with Mox, they agree and wrestle a match where things get heated. Regal stops the match. A civil war occurs within the team of Dante, Wheeler, Darius, Garcia, etc etc. It gets hated to the point they brawl, and William Regal screams BLOOD AND GUTS. However, Regal asks them to be honourable and glue back together after the match. Bryan and Mox makes the vow to Regal. Blood and Guts, Mox team wins. Bryan, unraged, attack Moxley the next week, ruthlessly injuring him. Regal confronts Bryan the next week, calling Bryan a honorless pig. Regal slaps him, and cuts ties with him. Bryan left in the ring ashamed in disbelief, with the crowd chanting "shame" like Regal did. The next week, however, things have changed. In a backstage segment, the young prospects from the team no longer wants to work together, and go their own ways respectfully. To which Regal is proud of, and claims Mox would be proud of it too. They're their own men now, and it is the end of their faction. Regal goes to the ring to announce that Mox is just fine, and will be cleared in 3 weeks. Before he could leave, Bryan attacks him. Sending him packing on ambulance. However, the days are counting, and it's only a matter of time before Moxley comes back. So Bryan engages himself in ruthless matches, presenting himself a in a never seen before violence, to try intimidate Mox before he comes. However, Mox comes back fearlessly and they brawl. Their third AEW match is made. Brutal match, Mox wins. .

+Byron Thomas Looks/Sounds like it.

With a great new finishing move because Powerbomb Symphony is less efficient on big star. This guy could be awesome against Keith or Hobbs

I dunno, I think when he does the PB Symphony on bigger people it just makes that much more impressive. It just shows what a monster the guy is, because he may be one of the bigger guys in AEW, he’s by no means the biggest, but he certainly comes off as the strongest. That being said, I would like to see a unique finisher for him. He did the F10 to start, now the PBS, I would just like to see some variation of an obscure power finisher. I think the problem with the F10 and the power bomb are that they immediately make people think of the biggest name person to use that finisher, ie Brock Lesnar and Diesel, Batista, etc. I do appreciate how Wardlow has put his own mark on the power bomb though, by doing the symphony.

@@mathiasgauch6207 he's powerbombed guys bigger than him like they were nothing

@@KruelAidMan yep but it looks like its a signature or usual move ... not something you could recognize him with...

@@mathiasgauch6207 hope those goalposts were heavy

This is similar to the Batista HHH feud from 2005. Well scripted, well executed story and hoping for a big feud from this with MJF/Wardlow.

More complete - what a joke. Come next year he will be lost in the shuffle

No, lol. Don't get me wrong, this whole story with Wardlow has been amazing and he really does have a lot of talent, so much that I really do hope they push him all the way eventually. He definitely deserves it. But c'mon, lol. Batista is literally a legend who was a huge chunk of what made the ruthless aggression era, which was an awesome era in wrestling. Wardlow doesn't even compare at the moment.

You probably never watched Batista then

It's natural to make that comparison, but I think it's not fair to Wardlow to put so much pressure on him. He doesn't need to match Batista's career, he can just try to be the best he can and I'm sure there will be good things ahead for him, given that he has the look, the facials, he can do what a big man should do in the ring, it sounds like he can talk naturally and the fans for the moment are behind him.

Nah, as long as MJF is there don't see anyone (AEW home talent) surpassing him at AEW!

He's got star quality...the type of wrestler Vince McMahon dreams about

@@DunknDonutt Yeah this is Vince’s wet dream.

@@DunknDonutt he is an AEW lifer I reckon

@@conormcgregor8451 yessir

"CAUSE IM BETTER THAN YOU AND YOU KNOW IT" MJF Voice

I do not think wardlow is going to win the tnt title. mjf will interfere in the match then it will be a set up for mjf vs wardlow in the future. just my prediction

@@toshe67 yeah I also thought about that but I also don't think that Tony will book face of the revolution winner to lose twice in two straight years . FOTR win should mean something, also they took the title off Sammy and put it on Scorpio may be for him to be a transitional champ

Then MJF is going to take it away from him.

@@thapa1052 at the same time i dont think they pushed scorpio sky to be undefeated for a year to lose the tnt title 1 week after winning it

@@atrikillershark good point let's see what happens next week

Was going to say the same, anyone who saw him in IWC is not surprised by this development lol

@@johnathanrush4666 For sure. you in Pittsburgh?

@@honestreviewer7788 not anymore, from there tho

@@johnathanrush4666 cool, we were prob at all the same shows. Wild

He don’t got no charisma do you even know what charisma is he’s okay on the mic but he needs to get better

@@joeyskywalker1322 thousands of people chanting his name but "no charisma". Sure, dronie.

@@KruelAidMan People chanting your name don’t mean you got charisma 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ once again do you even know what charisma means

@@KruelAidMan Because if you did you wouldn’t say people chanting Wardlow name means he got charisma 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ wanna know who has charisma in AEW Chris Jericho MJF Moxley them guys have charisma not Wardlow idiot

@@joeyskywalker1322 what does charisma mean? Go on. I'm waiting.

Facts

I agree it's a great promo and he is a wrestler who in the long term will mint. Lets be clear however ... rushing a push doesn't seem like a big concern... by my memory we are 3 years into this story... which has been sold and laid out methodically... rushing his push isn't exactly likely

No rush here I think. But he will be pushed very well. If not, that will be a mistake.

He’s only gonna get better too

I'm predicting, Double or Nothing 2022, Wardlow vs MJF, Wardlow wins, he's free from MJF'S contract!! 😀 😀

well said didn't thought that but it would be awesome 🔥 🔥 🔥

That's not a spoiler, that's all we know

I agree with you, I feel like that MJF will cost him the title. Wardlow didn't choose the right time to turn his back on MJF.

You kno wat I can see that happening possible he might interfere next week

He may not be one of the four pillars but I bet you he beats all 4 of the Pillars of AEW

Ngl I only see MJF and Darby being the only credible pillars by becoming AEW world champion and main event status in the future. I think AEW shot themselves in the foot when they put Sammy and Jungle Boy as part of the 4 pillars. Wardlow and Ricky Starks should replace them because they got mic skills, can wrestle, and fit into future main event status. MJF got the best mic skills of course but Darby also can talk but in a slow methodic way which suits his character. Sammy and Jungle Boy are better suited for the mid card and don't fit into the main event. Both Sammy and Jungle Boy got weak mic skills and can only wrestle. Jungle Boy is definitely the weakest link out of all the 4 pillars too

Starting with Chair Spears.

not many left now, with revival turning as well

Sounds like The Pinnacle are imploding, FTR fires Tully Blanchard, Wardlow turns Babyface, i agree, a Powerbomb Symphony for every Pinnacle member, MJF needs a special one : Powerbomb in the ring Powerbomb on the steps Powerbomb through a table 😀 😀 😀

Expect mjf or spears to cost him the match.

I figured that Sky would be a transitional champion. Wardlow should beat Scorpio Sky. But MJF is lurking.

@@edalder2000 Sky is keeping the title. Between Men of the year/American Top Team & MJF/Spears there's too much interference

Scorpio Sky deserves better than a "transitory" Championship... That being said- a TNT Title vs Contract match with MJF is most likely eventual- especially if The Pinnacle interferes next week.

@@edalder2000 scorpio deserves better than to be a transitional champ imo

I hope so.

Warlow will NEVER win a title before MJF.

Duh

Yep!

Wardlow will win the TNT title then MJF will take it from him. It's in his contract that any title Wardlow wins is legally MJF's property

Mjf can only carry Aew. No punk, no Daniels in, no moxly no old junks.. Remember. Mjf is the real deal in Aew. Nobody is better than mjf rn.. Wardlow is just another hobbs..

@@quakeaboveall5048 well if that isn’t the dumbest take I’ve read all week. MJF is great but he’s not the only great person in AEW with potential to carry the company.

Hes a work in progress, and has potential Pump the brakes a little

@@tobiasfarragut292 yes, I suppose I could have worded it as “he has potential to carry AEW for years” Fair point

@@thegame7134 u say something good about dude then he loses to Pockets..then where are you? Lol

I think MJF is on his way to be king heel in AEW. The Pinnacle stable was meh. The Inner Circle was meh. The only stable that looks and feels right is House of Black.

@@serialk.2144 When the Inner Circle was a heel stable, they were awesome, but they got stale after a while. I never bought into the Pinnacle cuz it didn't make too much sense. I would've rather have had MJF definitively break up the IC, but Jericho would have his personal revenge afterwards. And I agree, the House of Black genuinely interesting.

@@kevinfreitas6832 Yeah they really don't do anything with The Pinnacle since everyone in there looks out of place and shouldn't be partners. Let them all do their own thing

Agreed

Isnt that the truth? The fake cowboy cant cut a promo to save his life.

That makes the two of us 🤔 they sound same

Joe is more commanding and aggressive

@@herculez6087 Joe had to grow into it himself. Give Wardlow time and he will too.

@@gregpickett8816 all lies Samoa Joe was always a good talker and wrestler the only time he was green was early on in WWF vs Essa Rios

@@xxxmetalslugga5349 never said Joe wasn't a good talker. But when he started, he didn't have the body of work behind him to back up the attitude. The more experience he got, the bigger that kayfabe chip on his shoulder got, the more commanding those promos became. Give Wardlow a few years to spread his wings and he'll find that next level of confidence.

For reals!

Why? He did awesome.

@@ash80510 I agree. But there are people who nitpick the mixed delivery, a few slipped lines. I think this might have been his first major promo, so that's to be expected

@@ash80510 His voice doesn't match his look. Same problem as Brock.

@@Kratosx23 yeah thats true. Don't think its that bad for a face. Wouldn't work if he became heel again

People who hate and nitpick, can stick it.

That's the idea I was getting as well
