Probably not, since he didn't really get on their radar until his New Japan run.

ROH was very much the antithesis of what WWE was looking for from its beginning right up to when NXT started.

Word is that WBD gave AEW a fat money deal, part of was making all their non ROH content exclusive. At least AEW TV is finally going to have the time it needs, and having to do a soft brand split means you have to use more people since there will be some folks not crossing party lines.

Yup, and it's apparently why Miro and Rosa showed back up tonight.

Is it just me or is Heel Bron just not clicking? It's just been the usual WWE "its the fans fault I turned heel" deal with Bron looking like he lost a fight with a tanning bed.

Big Body Javi would have been great as a heel in the territory days in like, Memphis or World Class

Thea Hail is a national treasure

My goodness it look like Tiffany flattened poor Gigi on that forward roll deal.

I suppose one match in front of a giant UK crowd is fine, worked safely. I just hope it doesn't lead to a full on comeback.

Both sides look like they'll either go "former tag partners clash" or "former tag partners fuck each over so neither advance"

Bracket dropped for the NXT women's title

It always surprises me when I get reminded Dana Brooke is still around

lol get fucked Cody

Well I guess we get "Cody's in Jacksonville, wink wink!" stuff all night

Fuck Nintendo though for going after legit emulation tools because they're salty it leaked early like every other game that comes out because the original model Switch has an unfixable exploit.

I know what you meant, but PR is part of the US. Also it's not like WWE doesn't scale prices based on market. They can't charge NYC prices in Bismarck SD, so I'm sure they could figure something out.

They apparently got paid by the PR tourism board for the show, but I don't think they'd have a problem getting big houses running shows there. It's obviously still a hot wrestling market that's been starved for decades because the main promotion is run by the Puerto Rican Verne Gagne. If Im WWE, I drop a couple of the shows they run in bumfuck nowhere and add a couple dates for them.

the Monday Night Wars' lingering effects make it 100x harder to get new stars over. After years of Raw and Nitro putting on Big Star vs Big Star matches every week to get the almighty RATINGS~! (rip DEAN), no one wants to see guys squash Joe from Accounting to establish their moveset and personality. It's tough to get a new face in the mix when you're only putting them up against other established stars.

I know everyone hates Corey Graves, but I popped when he made a TNT reference when Savio came out

In modern WWE? Probably not, but AAA does it all the time.

The show was just fantastic, and it really illustrates the point on how much a hot crowd can add.

My main takeaway from this show is how the fuck does WWE not go there more often? PR has such a long history, was doing hardcore when Paul E was taking pictures with the Grand Wizard and Captain Lou, and has rabid fans. If they don't make it a regular spot on their rotation it's leaving money on the table.

Saw it pointed out that other than WCW/NJPW shows in North Korea that people were forced to attend, All In is the largest non WWE show in 60 years.

lol @ Cody doing his catchphrase in Spanish, hardest working man in the biz

Also PR crowds are fuckin dope.
