Out of all the things to criticize AEW for...you nitpick this?? Interesting choice

Especially given MJFs promo, it's clearly just to further him and Ospreay

On the bright side, great to see Kamille. We have the female version of Shawn/Diesel now.

Well, it's Jack Perry. You know, the one who insisted on using real glass? The one CM Punk rightfully called out for wanting to do these unnecessary spots.

Pretty sure it was a gimmick chair.

Kinda like when Osprey renamed/changed the IWGP US Title to the IWGP UK Title

Okay, should I criticize them for recycling Will Ospreay storylines that they did in NJPW? As Gurds pointed out.

I mean sure, I guess...still kinda weird; I'm just saying there are plenty of things you can criticize them for..

TK himself, creative, lack of stories, bloated roster, random meaningless matches, hell the amount of different titles they have...

But hey, whatever floats your boat

So will Tony K every stop kissing Jericho's butt? It's time Jericho be told he can either stay home until his contract ends or take on a behind the scene's role. He's in his 50s and it's time for him to retire from in ring action. This learning tree is just garbage. Last night may have been one of his worst matches of his career.

Sorry you're so bothered by me making a tongue in cheek comment about belt names. And I would say belt names falls under creative.

You think that reply from me, signals I'm bothered? Lol just said it was a weird choice..

Bothered...would clearly be any of your 1000 word posts in WWE arguing over Bobby Lashley

Please explain how saying AEW is ripping off WWE is such a weird choice? That's the exact type of thing to criticize a company for.

What's even more pathetic is them recycling Ospreay's very last storyline with NJPW.

Your last point...sure; but umm...how can they be ripping off WWE exactly if they are running a "story" that was used in another company...oh no, is it because he called the title the 'American Title' and that's too close to 'US title'? Because I dunno..US vs UK? Nah..definitely not a nitpick lol

And boy you sure do get amped up quick...since you said your comment was tongue in cheek, and now they are pathetic

I wonder what would Bobby Lashley do

Or the fact that they originally called it the International title. That's how they are ripping off WWE.

Isn’t Jericho just making fun of C.M. Punk and his two cronies Ace and whatever that other guys name is. I was assuming that was the case, so I find the whole thing hilarious but I could be wrong. Either way he’s always re-inventing himself and is entertaining, even when acting like that twat C.M. Punk, who said he was just coming to AEW to help the young talent lol.

I don't get it?

It was ORIGINALLY the All Atlantic Championship....then, International

But unless your thinking they are ripping the Intercontinental Title...but even then, last I checked, the All Atlantic/International title was indeed defended....INTERNATIONALLY (RevPro in UK, NJPW, and MJF is actually defending his "American championship" in Mexico next weekend)

But sure..totally ripping off WWE

And Logan Paul won the US title at Crown Jewel. It's almost like like the name of the title has nothing to do with where it's defended anymore.

The fact that they had a completely original name for it and changed it to something very similar to a WWE title is great. And of course, I was solely talking about the name of the belt. So I have no idea why you're bringing up where the title is being defended.

What does that have to do with anything?

That was the WHOLE POINT of TK/AEW having that belt....to be defended all around the world against different competitors in different promotions all across the world...

The hell does Logan Paul winning the US title in WWE, at a show that's done twice a year in the same country correlate to any of that?

I think you just like to argue for the sake of arguing at this point...cuz we've went from a tongue in cheek comment, to AEW is pathetic, and now we're in this loop..

I even agreed your last point makes the most sense about re using the same story..but again, not sure how that correlates to your original argument of them ripping off WWE...

But again, you do you...I'm done now

You literally made a point that it was the international title because it was defended internationally. And you don't understand what my comment had to do with it?

Internationally...against...wrestlers...from...different...promotions...around...the...world...

Paul...wrestling someone...from...the...same...company...in a different country...isn't the same thing

MJF defending his American title in Mexico. Against
someone from the same company. Same damn thing.

Do I need to run my comments by you before I post, gatekeeper?

When exactly did Templario sign an AEW contract?

Sorry, mixed up matches. MJF defending against Ospreay at Wembley. Exact same thing.

Ok...and where did I say anything about that match? You're so dense

I literally said that's why the belt was created...not as a ripoff of WWE...even said it has been defended in UK at RevPro SEVERAL times ( against other UK talent, not AEW), in Japan for NJPW against non AEW talent...and now MJF, in Mexico against...a Mexican promotion talent...

What does ANY of that have to do with whatever point you are trying to make about blah blah Paul did this and MJF/Ospreay blah blah it's the same...huh???

I am honestly done now...all this because i said you making a supposed tongue in cheek comment was weird...

"It can be defended in other promotions" equals "we let our title holders appear in other promotions, even though there is a 0.0% chance the belt changes hands."

If AEW actually got enough viewers, they wouldn't need to let their talent go work other promotions.
