are the journalists dropping the ball lately or is aew no longer leaking stuff? im surprised srs didnt mention which wrestlers were backstage these last few weeks.
top guy in what sense? win the aew belt? no he wont. will he main event dynamites and be in significant matches/feuds? yes. if he does join then he will be part of bcc and that group is on almost every week on tv
Tony is a mark for him so I could send him having a short reign, like 3 months before dropping it to a younger guy. CSRO vs Wardlow would be dimes for the belt

Yes, there's no way a NJPW contracted wrestler can appear on this NJPW show or co-sign with AEW on a pet appearance deal

Why are you expecting AEW to make sense and why can't Bryan know Tom?
FITE TV feed said: vs 'the newest member of BCC'.....after Mox beat Tom a few months ago he spilled the beans saying he's a special membner/friend of the BCC. I don't think Tom is awful but when I think of technical wrestlers I don't think of him.
Filthy Tom wouldn’t be bad, Csro would be cool, Masada would be cool even though it’s a pipe dream because Masada’s pretty open about not liking gays, Johnny Gargano I have no opinion of, Jonathan Gresham should be booed out of the building if he is the newest member
Excalibur often slips up on those. But also being a friend/special member of the BCC doesn't mean next member proper.

Forbidden Door media call. The same one where he said Okada told him he's a Man City fan like 17 times.
Imagine the star rating
Imagine the botches. Plz don't fantasy book guys that would get lost within like 20 seconds of Zack's submission game.

Anon he's been in the ring all of 25 minutes and started training the end of 2020 IIRC. Ya'll act like he's been on the young lion schedule.

That might be the one guy that would be terrible, yet still get a better reaction than Gresham
It's Filthy Tom

It's going to be a surprise debut, so it's not Gresham
If I had to guess I'd say it's someone with a connection to William Regal. Gargano doesn't seem like a BCC kind of guy, so I'm thinking it's gotta be either Claudio or they're wheeling Chris Hero out of the retirement home which would be a much stupider idea
Chris Hero and Eddie Kingston hate each other. I honestly can’t guess who it would be, especially using the match graphic as a hint. All I know is Gresham would be such fricking bullshit, even though him against Sabre would be kind of hilarious from a height standpoint
They couldn't have made it any more obvious that it's Claudio.
Tony Khan even described it on the media call today as a "moment" they'll be creating. The only other person it could be is Gargano, but everything points to it being Claudio.
Nah it's going to be me.
Nah according to Brian alvarez’s twitter it’s either David Benoit or dr Luther. He’s been wrong before but seems like it’s probably true
Kek why
I'd demand a refund even though I'm pirating it

Cesaro is much more likely.
It's probably something only Tony, Zack, Bryan, and ??? know
The stuff they want to keep properly secret, they are much better at tightening the ship on.
https://twitter.com/ClaudioCSRO/status/1540404304863010817
its been almost a week since he last tweeted something and cesaro tweeted this out today
Part of me feels like it's too late for him, and he'd never really be a top guy in AEW, but most of me just hopes he'd be great
top guy in what sense? win the aew belt? no he wont. will he main event dynamites and be in significant matches/feuds? yes. if he does join then he will be part of bcc and that group is on almost every week on tv

Hiring another wwe guy and throwing them straight into a featured programme is a pretty terrible idea right now
So you're saying it's gonna happen
Yes. It's 50/50, him or Tom Lawlor
Yes, there's no way a NJPW contracted wrestler can appear on this NJPW show or co-sign with AEW on a pet appearance deal

Why are you expecting AEW to make sense and why can't Bryan know Tom?
Why would you wrestle when you could make bank as a male model?
I really hope he shows as much promise as he did in 2013-14 but that probably won't happen
yummy csro
Its Filthy Tom

Watch it be Ric Flair

Dimes. Will be seething if they don't send Hook now.
it's really obvious that it's cesaro
