That stupid fucking retard Tony Khan is now hotshotting and making random fucking title matches with no buildup and burying everyone left and right cause he has run out of ideas. This is Takeshita's first title match ever and he is going to job with no story behind it.
>>20449734 >First title match But he's holding a title belt in his hand, and wasn't he NJPW Heavyweight champion from September to January or something
>>20449906 >and wasn't he NJPW Heavyweight champion from September to January or something Yup but you wouldn't know it cause he had 0 defenses and whenever he was on Dynamite he never had the belt with him. AEW is fucking awful and I can't wait for it to die
>>20449734 Instead of having Darby go over one of the 100 jobbers Tony has on his roster that never fucking wrestle, he has him go over one of his most over guys instead
>>20450366 I'm not that anon but I just want you to know that I cannot put into words how much you and people like you have fucking ruined wrestling that you think "losing to the world champion in a highly competitive match" is a burial. You and everybody who think like you are why we don't get clean finishes anymore and everything is about "protecting" everybody so nobody actually gets over. You are the fucking worst. Fuck you.
>>20449734 >That stupid fucking retard Tony Khan is now hotshotting and making random fucking title matches with no buildup and burying everyone left and right cause he has run out of ideas. This is Takeshita's first title match ever and he is going to job with no story behind it. The story is: he wants the world title, so he challenged for it. It's gonna be a banger. Seethe harder.
>>20449734 Did the same thing with Ricky Starks vs MJF. I've noticed Tony doesn't believe in power levels in kayfabe. Yeah, when you're his favorite, he'll put you on a streak, but then he'll start jobbing you out with no build. (See: Hook). After 7 years, excluding the Covid era, Tony's only just started to use jobbers for short matches, and he still doesn't understand the concept. He could've had this match, if when Darby announced the Open Challenge, a bunch of ppl, including Takeshita came out to line up for it. So you knew he was waiting for his turn.
>>20451942 >>20451449 >>20451924 You fucking retards are the same dipshits who say Jay White had a chance to get over (he never got one) cause he had ONE fucking shot at the world title in a two week lead up to him getting buried by a balding fucking jew with one broken leg Fucking kill yourself you stupid fucking morons
>>20449734 Okada was the original contender. There are like four stories involved in this match. Darby’s open challenge run, Darby refusing MJF, Takeshita/Okada, Darby/Don Callis Family.
i'm assuming we're speed running darby's title run because of a combo of tony's notebook orientation, darby's often busy schedule of doing something fucking retarded, and the reality that darby will surely need a cane sooner than later unless he accidentally kills himself in some elaborate and dangerous stunt but it's such a freak accident and he loved life bro wow how could this happen lil nigga is over, available, can still go, run this until the wheels off on your terms
Why does this thread exists? Anybody who actually watched the show would know that the reason why this match is taking place is because okada has to go back to Japan due to a family matter. This isn't a work it's a genuine thing that's happening in real life.
>>20449734 You need some gingerbread man and midget and some monkey walking for you to be entertained? Is the story about wanting to be champ not enough for you?
>>20452692 Nobody told you to google what happened on wwe. (we all know you watch every second but let's ignore that) you did that on your own accord to cope
>>20452692 Why would you google what happened on Raw just because someone said AEW sucks? What stereotype? What ghosts are you boxing with exactly? Btw AEW fucking SUCKS kek
>>20452707 They haven't settled on this. There are people throwing a tantrum over Oba in another thread. When will you realize that if you gonna criticize WWE, you have to accept criticism of AEW too.
>>20452717 You know chances are the way he knows about what goes on in WWE is the same way you know about what goes on in aew. You're both autistic losers who are obsessed with this stupid console war, and we are all blessed by the fact that your genetic lineage ends with you
>>20452130 Hey dipfuck. Takeshita had a defense of the world title. That means he didn't have 0 title defenses. Because 1 is a higher number than 0. You fucking jackass.
>>20449734 >title shot given to a man who hasn't had a singles match in 2 months >that he lost >to the guy who holds an AEW midcard title Booker Of The Year.
>>20453164 There is no story. He is literally replacing Okada whose mom died or something. If this actually an angle and okada comes back and fucks him because he gave up a world title shot so he is retarded. Either way, stupid ass booking. Why does Darby need to defend the belt every week? I dont get what Tony is trying to do, it's clearly not helping the ratings.
>>20453425 He said this was his 15 minute ride, and he was going full throttle. There's nothing out of character or random about this reign at all. Everything was explained and makes sense in and out of kayfabe
>>20453282 >book a replacement >who hasn't wrestled a singles match in 2 months >and lost that match to a guy who holds an AEW midcard title Booker Of The Year
>>20456863 >Follows AEW so deeply that he meticulously picks at nits over a last second replacement >Chooses to ignore the storyline reasons behind why Okada was replaced by the person he hates most by his boss, Don Callis Typical AEWtist, seething and shitting Xir's pants over nothing
>>20452726 >kek aewtists ALWAYS self report as WWE fans deep down This. I see anon(s) pulling the old "but WWE!..." and he knows more about what's happening in WWE then he does in gAyEW.
>>20449734 Kek I think Tony knows he's awful at booking world championship reigns so he's just giving up and having Darby defend against random people for no reason with zero build or story
