    The timing couldn’t possibly be worse as she was slated to get a major push.

    Damn these injuries keep coming at the worst possible time. She definitely deserves a major push, considering she will now have had knee surgery on both knees before the age of 30, could be troubling down the line as she gets older.

    Toni Storm has been named the new number one contender for the AEW Women's Championship... Oh no... dare I say it. Can Thunderstorm co-exist?

      So the fans wanted AEW to put Hook and Danhausen together as a team. They did. Had one feud, if you can call it that. Now Danhausen is teaming with Erick Rowan on Rampage? The **** was the point of HOOKHAUSEN then?

        To give the fans some fan service while turning Hook face?

          But HOOKHausen could have been as red hot as Team Hell No was when they first got together. Plus it could have given Hook a little bit more of a personality. It could have been the hottest thing going.

            I mean anything could happen, but I don't really think it had that long of a shelf life, both people are probably better as singles acts that come together periodically as allies. Plus, arguably what they just did with the Team Taz, and Hook winning the FTW title propelled them further than they would've gone as a tag team, especially since the tag titles seem earmarked for the future.

              Danhausen is like 95% a character and 5% a wrestler. I love seeing on my TV, but I don't need him wrestling regularly in meaningful matches on TV. In the arena he might be as popular as anyone on the card, but on TV and on a PPV show we don't need him wrestling a lot. Hook is 23 and is being brought along very very slowly.

                Reading about all this backstage drama with AEW, in particular with CM Punk is so...annoying? Is that the right word? All the reports on how no one knew he was gonna go off on Page like that...but then there's people that think it's a giant work like the MJF situation. AEW keeps blurring the lines of work/shoot but I don't feel like it's actually a good thing. Is it just me?

                  I try not to pay too much attention, because who really knows? I think the more reputable sheets exaggerate what they know, while the vast majority of them just straight-up lie.

                  If I were a betting man, I think part of the problem is the relationship between Punk and Colt Cobana. Colt was very popular backstage at AEW, and ever since Punk arrived, he has basically disappeared from the Dark Order and TV in general.

                  Obviously, if you were Tony and you don't sign Punk because of loyalty to Colt, you would be rightly called an idiot as both a businessman and a promoter.

                  But there is definitely a blurring of the lines on social media. FTR does this all the time on Twitter when it comes to stories about the Bucks or Punk. The whole MJF situation. And now this story about "a ton of backstage drama involving many of the top guys that has gotten much worse in recent weeks" according to Dave.

                  Social media is just so tiresome anymore.

                    Right. He would've been an idiot not to sign him, but if Punk and Colt is an issue I don't think anyone would be wrong for hoping Punk would stop acting like such a ****ing baby at some point in his life.

                    People are allowed to have jobs even if he doesn't get along with them. Damn.

                      Toni Storm will face off against her partner Thunder Rosa at All Out for the Women's AEW Championship.

                      How can they coexist until then?

                            Anyone bought AEW tickets during presale releases?

                            I signed up for their newsletter and the presale is in a few days, but I'm hoping it's not crazy with the amount of people buying online. Knowing this market, majority will be scalpers.

                            The venue is only 100 level, so every seat in the arena should be decent views, but not sure what to expect in terms of ticket pricing and availability of tickets.

                              I know I could've gotten good floor seats with the Columbus Dynamite if my buddy had texted me back quicker, but we got good lower-level seats.

                              I would say it would depend on the venue.

                                Today's BTE episode covered the Punk/Hangman beef...

                                Scene: Hangman in the locker room with Dark Order while they train for the trios tournament by playing leapfrog.

                                AEW staff member: Hey Hangman, Punk is in the ring...
                                Hangman: Shut the f*** up!!!!
