His new finisher sucks compared to Jericho's amazing new finisher.

So apparently Mox cut a really good promo on Janela and said the match will be Amazon Prime for head trauma.

Nice.

Can you imagine not liking Dean Ambrose/Jon Moxley.

@Whiskey_Nick I'm looking at you. Come defend your actions or apologize. Preferably the latter.

I love Dean Ambrose AND Jon Moxley. The most entertaining part of the last like 5 years of WWE TV was when Dean make it his mission to jump Seth Rollins from various places. Like a giant gift box.

What do I win?

So I was against Jericho being the first AEW Champion until I heard Alvarez and Lance Storm talk about it. Now it just sort of seems like the best option because I completely forgot they'll want somebody to do media and have a presence, and Jericho is probably the best guy to do that.

If this weren't like a direct competitor on freaking TNT, Jericho would probably not be the best choice, but big picture I think Jericho is the guy to have the belt first.

yeah i'm in complete agreement. i just think if you're trying to attract attention, which you should be out of the gate, you would rather answer "chris jericho" than "adam page" to the question of "who is your champion?"

me either but the match with juice showed he's very capable of being a violent, vicious character even within the constraints of a regular wrestling match without overusing weapons

Dean Ambrose sucks. His singles matches were all trash. The rebound clothesline thing and little turnbuckle kick thing he does are as asinine as anything in wrestling ever. He promo work was sometimes acceptable or funny but generally piss poor.

Much of this may be WWE's fault.

I still stand by Ambrose sucks.

Never watched this Moxley fellow

ambrose's rebound lariat was awful. i loved that move when mcguinness did it and it never looked half as clunky.

jon moxley just had the best singles match of his life so it's not exactly fair to say that criticism of dean ambrose was unwarranted - though i think nick was harsh on the man, as it was obvious that wwe scripting had done a number on his ability to be a character

Ambrose was kinda bad in ring because yeah his signature spots were the worst this side of Sasha Banks. Really contrived and ineffectual looking. I'm honestly not sure I can put that all on WWE though-- part of that has gotta be on the guy doing the moves too. Like I doubt guys are telling him what signature moves to do as much as "you did that one do it every match now"

Based on the interviews he's given this doesn't seem like it'd be that hard to believe.

Admittedly those numbers are from when The Elite were still there so maybe theyve dropped since

But they for sure do better than 20k
