Yeah I only counted the Speed ones because they’ve actually been defended, although not that occasionally, still. Those little mini tournaments actually lead to defenses.

It also seems like they're leaning into a breakup (again) of DIY with Ciampa being super aggressive and starting to boss Gargano around.
I know they had some amazing matches and feuds, particularly in NXT, but do we need this again?

Unless Johnny turns on him first? No clue, we’ve seen these two work far better as a team.
Maybe with Hunter in charge they can get separate pushes with Vince and his allergies to not pushing guys under 6 foot out of the picture?
But I agree, they’re a great team. Just because you’ve run out of ideas for them at the moment doesn’t mean you just turn them for the sake of turning.

"The Nov. 8 episode was the top rated show on all of television last Friday night, according to Wrestlenomics and Programming Insider. SmackDown‘s 1,536,000 viewers were 8% above the previous week’s total, while it’s .47 rating was up 11%. Both were the blue show’s best in a month, and among its best since moving to cable & USA Network two months ago.
SmackDown beat out ESPN’s coverage of the Dallas/Phoenix NBA game, which aired entirely against WWE and had a .39 demo rating from an overall audience of 1.31 million, and FOX’s Big Ten college football game of the week between Iowa & UCLA, which didn’t start until 9 p.m. ET and did a .35 from 1.9 million total viewers."
And yet when it comes to AEW we blame every little event under the sun for their ratings every single week.

Bronson Reed is the 5th member of the New Bloodline for Wargames.
I assume that means Seth will be the 5th member of the Original Bloodline.

Why do they need 5 on 5 and adding two dudes not even associated with this Bloodline feud? It’s fucking dumb.
Let Bronson & Seth do their thing in their own match on the show.
4 on 4 should’ve been the way to go.
Unless it’s a herring and Reed is “taken out” or some shit and Rock replaces him.

Roman called Heyman and the number was "disconnected".
Maybe Rock paid him off...
