Reacting to Pro Wrestling 🔥HOT TAKES🔥 

The thing about the Wyatt Sicks is that they don't have to be an invincible force. The whole point is supposed to be that they're a family. So as long as they stick together, they succeed.

Bryan Danielson did not fire Punk. He helped his friend get out of his contract free and clear (no non-compete is crazy) and convinced Tony Kahn it was the right thing to do for his company. Bryan is a worker’s worker. #hottake

the best take is that Steve and Larson proved Orson Welles really wouldn't have been that good of a Darth Vader. James Earl Jones was just the perfect choice.

Cult Leader Bray Wyatt had a limitless ceiling. Just a charismatic dude with followers and mind games.

Dude, Orson Welles was Unicron in the Transformers movie. He would have been awesome as Vader.

13:31 That’s REALLY difficult to do logistics wise because War Games is the only match stipulation that has to alter the ticketing layout that arenas need to prepare for

I was an Ask Jeeves guy myself

While on the topic of the Fiend, let’s have a Cena Vs Uncle Howdy match. Bo can make Cena remember The Fiend and what Cena did to Bray.

People pretend the fiend was always buried and hooked bad just bc of the weird end to that hell in a cell and losing to Goldberg but people forget everything inbetween I also love that Kross put an hour glass in the ring with Roman and Roman literally never saw him again 💀

Booking good or not, the fiend was an amazing character that's always gonna stand out from the pack.

Bray was saddled with bad booking his entire career and how over he was despite it is truly remarkable. The argument about Punk not showing his value to WWE because of Collision is funny considering Warner almost doubled AEW's air time because they wanted to keep him around. I love AEW but since Punk left the ratings have been in a freefall on all shows. Dustin vs Hager might not seem like a big deal today but for early AEW they were literally two of the 10 biggest names in the company. Losing Cody is the biggest mistake Tony ever made, idk if it was even possible to keep him around, but it's pretty much undeniable at this point that Cody was a great asset to have backstage. I don't think the Punk drama ever happens, or at least not to the scale it happened, if Cody is still there. Danielson is being selfish by always losing big matches for the simple fact that the more he loses, the less a win over him means. Take Ospreay vs Danielson for example; literally nobody thought Danielson had a chance in hell to win that match. Was it still a great match? Yes. Would it have been even better had Danielson not eaten so many big losses? Yes.

13:57 The noise Steve made confused the hell out of me

That Tanga Loa impression 😂

Orson Wells with the Unicron effects from the Transformers movie might have worked for Darth.

Love seeing y’all together in the same location!!!!

They still do hang out haha feels like forever I've seen them in the same room. Its like Tom and Nick Mystreo

8:52 that tickled me more than it probably should.

I truly believe that Cody Rhodes was the most integral EVP. I think Kenny & The Bucks just saw AEW as an opportunity for themselves to have really good matches and set themselves up for life whereas Cody treated it like an actual company and as a businessman. Like when you look at the timeline of events it isn’t a coincidence that the company’s bad luck (the locker room drama, Tony Khan focusing more on in-ring action rather than storylines, talent constantly voicing their frustrations) started happening once Rhodes was gone. I think Cody had a lot more clout and influence within AEW than he lets on.

The Wyatt Family does not even need a title, they dont need to be a regular on the show, just sprinkle them through whenever someone did what they deem something "wrong".

I think at least for me, the whole early AEW being good argument should also factor that WWE was such crap in 2019 and 2020 that we were a lot more forgiving back then

Did Steve ever get his muffins?

Orson wells would not have been amazing, pretty sure he was in his ahhh the french era by then

Original Bray Wyatt could have been one of the greatest of all time if he wasn't booked to lose every single feud he was involved in

I never was a fan of syco sid i always kinda thought he was just another guy but the more time that passes the more i appreciate him, he has a very strange weird guy charisma to him lol. Just a strange but unique guy

I agree with the punk stuff except... I think Jungle Boy was in on it... They seemed cool to start and he was friends with the Bucks so he would feel safe he wasn't going to get fired.

I will always believe the fiend would’ve worked perfectly EVEN in the matches if they just didn’t have him lose to Rollins. It’s such a slam dunk just have the fiend kill Seth and take the belt but they buried him off rip so why would anyone care anymore

I agree with bryan not winning titles is detrimental to aew as a product. Every wrestler especially of bryans callibre should be aiming for a title. This also helps him establish people in victory as well as defeat. He is the best in the world ( in kayfabe ) on what basis?

#hottake edge aka Adam isn't getting people over since he been back,he squash the demon,all he does is win,only lose he has to Christian, he isn't getting people over by beating them

WWE Women's Midcard Division just might be better then the men's (especially when all 3 brands get midcard titles) #hottake

Orsen wells was real good as unicron in transformers

Cm punk will always be worth it 🙏

I thought Steve was wearing jorts in homage to Cena haha

Does this count as a hot take: AEW is actually pretty entertaining and good also the take on Danielson is actually kind of right, I don’t think it’s selfish but yeah him not winning anything is sort of detrimental

Black luster soldier?

The fiend is the probably the best version of the super over the top outlandish characters (other than taker and Kane but they’re slightly different) but they all have the same issues. It’s like Tony D’Angelo in nxt, why is a mob boss who does crime and throws people off bridges on National tv wrestling? We don’t really know. And until they can explain that for the Wyatt sicks they’ll always have a ceiling as to what they can do

#hottake Juice Robinson has the best dance in AEW. Better than Garcia, Nana, Mone

Speaking of sammy g has he been seen since the latest aew saviour was mone was hired.. Or has she used her creative freedom to him the F out of there???

1:05 brilliant? Really you thought that was brilliant.....

zero views? the fall off is crazyyyy

I'm with you guys. You can impress people with all the spooky stuff and cryptic promos in the world but at the end of every program, there is a wrestling match with kicks punches, slams and suplexes and that just doesn't jive well with the supernatural crap. And don't hit me with the Undertaker. EVERY rule has an exception. Pointing it out does not make your case.
