I like Deonna but she isn't on Giulia's level!
They were never going to WWE and I agree they wouldn't fare well in WWE's system.Cats are going to say I'm just bashing The Elite but honestly, I'm not surprised that The Elite are staying in AEW. Neither the Bucks, Omega or Page have evolved over the last few years. They are basically the same characters and wrestlers since AEW began and going over to WWE would have forced them to actually change.
Neither of these guys are that great on the mic and just rely on the lot in ring work, and in WWE, that will only get you so far.
Had they signed with WWE, they would have been exposed.
Say what now
They were never going to WWE and I agree they wouldn't fare well in WWE's system.
All that Indy-rific stuff they like to do in every match would have to go and they would get destroyed on the mic.
I think they purposely put the rumor out there (about WWE being interested) for leverage to resign for more money with the money mark himself, TK.
RollinsWho over there is destroying Omega on the mic?

Never said no matter what. I said they haven't evolved. They are the same characters they were when AEW started. Most of their roster has evolved.So in 4 years you're supposed to change your gimmick no matter what?
No, you evolve to keep your character interesting. You cannot honestly say they are interesting at the moment.You only evolve when it's time to evolve.
He isn't selling tickets. Wasn't doing this when he was champion, isn't doing this now.Omega is STILL red hot.
See above.Hangman is STILL red hot.
We'll never know since he resigned with AEW.Make no mistake about it Omega would be a top guy in WWE.
That's a great excuse. LolzHe can adapt to the WWE way but it would get boring to him real fast.

That's a great excuse. Lolz
You’re right, those guys you mentioned are the same, however: Jungle Boy. Britt Baker. Luchasaurus. Miro..... Not saying their changes worked, but at least they evolved somewhat.Like who? Moxley is the same. Darby is the same. MJF is the same. Sammy Guevara the same. Orange Cassidy, etc. The only one constantly changing his gimmick is Jericho.
Wrestler of the year? To who? Meltzer and other AEW marks?Yes. Omega is interesting. literally running neck and neck for wrestler of the year with Will Ospreay.
Forbidden Door was successful because it was a PPV in Toronto. All In is getting record numbers because it's in London.Of course, he's selling tickets but it's all apart of a collective. "Forbidden Door 2" was a success because of his involvement. They're reaching record numbers for their "All In" London show because of his involvement.
Excuse. What you consider "best bout" material, others consider boring. Him staying in AEW is safe. He's happy staying in his lane. More power to him, but don't make it sound like he's not going to WWE because he would be bored, he doesn't want to go because he would be challenged to evolve his style and work, and that's not something he wants to do. Not hating on him, but you're making excuses for him.No excuse just facts. After the money matches are done in WWE what is there left for Omega to do? His character literally is "The Best Bout Machine", not doing soap opera "Days of your lives" WWE storylines. He would be bored out his mind.

Neither of those shows would have received the same gate had they taken place stateside.

Melo will cook his ass on the Mic. Kenny has a great work rate but his promos are straight garbageWWE marks unite!

Why not both?If you think Kenny is a garbage promo then you haven't been paying attention. Dude can cut promos in both English and Japanese. He's very solid on the mic. He's just not allowed to show it often in AEW because at the end of the day what's going to be remembered years from now some promo or a great match. Years from now they'll still be talking about the Omega/Okada series and Omega/Ospreay series. Will anything Melo has done be remembered in the same light? NOPE!
Why not both?
Macho Man's "Cream rises to the top" promo is remembered very fondly, so is his match against Steamboat at WMIII.
Dusty Rhodes "Hard Times" promo is remembered very fondly, so are his battles with Flair/the Horsemen.
Ric Flair promos and his battles with Steamboat, Macho, Sting, etc...
Austin's "King of the Ring/3:16" promo and his matches with Hitman, Rock, etc...
Promos are a part of wrestling and if you're only going to focus on "great matches" you're not going to become memorable.
This was so wild back then. I remember watching and was laughing my ass off.
I have no clue who this Lufisto woman is...but goddamn she's throwing grenades.
