What’s next for Brock Lesnar? Is he done with WWE again??? Looks like it but we’ll see…

We haven’t seen Brock Lesnar on WWE TV in a long while again. Lesnar is a part-timer even though he’s a big main eventer in the WWE. He’s just one of those stars who makes ocassional appearances, just come back for the WWE Title and once he loses it, Lesnar’s gone again. It’s that same cycle over and over again with Brock. That’s how he works with WWE. Lesnar gets paid millions by WWE but doesn’t work a full-time schedule.

Well, Lesnar’s been gone again from WWE TV for a long while and here is the reason. Vince been trying to bring him back but Lesnar’s WWE contract ran out and looks like Brock isn’t interested in re-signing with them. A new deal couldn’t be reached.

This means that Brock is a free agent as of this time. Now there’s a lot of speculation and rumors that he could be on his way to AEW or he could make a UFC comeback for one more fight. Either one of those could be a possibility but Brock could end up re-signing with WWE after all, ya never know. We’ll have to wait and see what Brock is gonna do.

Brock Lesnar no longer under contract with WWE

Brock Lesnar gets so much hate but I don’t know why. I’ve always been a fan of his and admired his career. I even own a Lesnar WWE t-shirt myself and wear it once in a while. Love him or hate him all you want to, Lesnar accomplished so much. Lesnar had matches with pretty much all the WWE legends with the exception of Stone Cold, HBK and Chris Jericho.

It’s gonna be interesting to see what’s next for Brock and we’ll know soon. A possible UFC fight between Jon Bone Jones vs. Lesnar is already heating up so could it actually happen? Like I said, we’ll wait.

If Lesnar does end up going to AEW, that would be great for him ’cause why? If he goes to AEW, that means more creative freedom for him and think how much better his wrestling skills would be if he went to AEW. He’ll be doing more than just the F5 and the suplex which he is known for those. If he goes to AEW, he won’t be able to do those moves anymore since I’m sure the WWE has them trademarked but Brock’s wrestling skills might be different if he goes to AEW so I hope Tony Khan gets him. I stopped watching AEW wrestling a while back but if AEW gets him, I’ll probably start watching again.

You can hate Brock all you want to, the man is an icon and legend. The man is also a huge draw. Where ever he goes, fans will watch even all the haters too.

Watched AEW “Revolution” ppv last night, it was really good… enjoyed every match…

Ya know, I’ve been watching AEW wrestling ever since they started… their very first show was “Double or Nothing” which took place inn May of 2019. I’ve watched every AEW ppv ever since and since AEW been doing their Wednesday night TV shows “Dynamite”, I haven’t missed a single episode of that either. AEW is good stuff, I really respect and admire what they’re doing. When it comes to wrestling wars between two companies: AEW and WWE, I’m not on one side to tell you the truth. I love both companies and will continue to support both simply because I love professional wrestling. Just love watching it.

I’m not gonna lie, though, that AEW is definitely way better than WWE. AEW gives us things that WWE don’t do anymore  and AEW gives us good wrestling which is what WWE has been missing for many years. That’s why fans watch these shows ’cause they want to see good wrestling.

AEW “Revolution” had a good card, great booking but I would say the best matches of that night were Kenny Omega/Adam Page vs. The Young Bucks- AEW Tag Team Championship match, Cody Rhodes vs. MJF and of course, Jericho vs. Moxley for the AEW Championship.

I’m usually never surprised at championship matches when it comes to wrestling ’cause they’re usually pretty predictable. I kept predicting that Jericho was gonna win and retain the AEW championship but when Jericho lost the title to Moxley, that one actually shocked the hell out of me. Jericho had the title for a long while now and I didn’t think he would drop it this early.

The Cody vs. MJF feud is getting interesting. I never liked Cody Rhodes (who is the real life son of wrestling legend Dustry Rhodes) at first but I think I’m a huge fan of Cody now. I’m realizing now that Cody is one talented guy.

Even though Nyla Rose is the first transgender woman in wrestling, I thought she had a great wrestling match against Kris Statlander. That was some great wrestling. There are a lot of complaints of Nyla being the champ since she’s transgender but ya know, you can’t help but think that she’s a great wrestler and a great talent. I’m not gonna lie that I don’t like the transgender lifestyle but Nyla Rose is an interesting talent, anyway.

AEW getting better and better with their live shows. They had a lot of problems in the beginning but as time goes along, they keep improving and improving. I thought “Revolution” was one of their best shows and entertaining as hell. Definitely different than what WWE is doing . AEW is a great company and I hope they stick around for years and years. Hopefully they don’t ever go defunct like WCW and TNA-Impact did. It’s pretty likely that AEW will be around for a long long time ’cause they’re doing well and getting success quickly. They are beating WWE in the ratings right now and they continue to do so.

Congrats to Tony Khan on a job well done. That man definitely knows what he’s doing running a wrestling business and hope he keeps up the great work.

Vince McMahon tried to talk Chris Jericho into getting out of AEW contract so he can re-join WWE… Jericho refused…

I can’t blame Chris Jericho for leaving WWE for AEW simply because WWE has been using him like shit for the past several years. In the past, Jericho used to be a pretty hot star in the WWE… he used to be very big but later in the years during the 2000’s – 2018, the WWE was using him like shit… making him lose matches, not giving him enough TV time, giving Jericho shitty matches, etc. I can go on and on.

Jericho did the smart thing making the transition from WWE to AEW ’cause I’ve been watching AEW ever since they started and AEW is using Chris way better than WWE ever had.

Vince McMahon was all for Jericho joining AEW but now he is against it? He wants Jericho to get out of the AEW contract to rejoin WWE?

Check out the story in this article:

https://www.republicworld.com/sports-news/wwe-news/vince-mcmahon-rejected-by-chris-jericho-after-aew-success-let-go-wwe.html

It is my belief that Vinnie Mac has been quietly and very secretly watching AEW so he knows what’s going on with that company, Vince knows everything going on with AEW. Jericho is doing great things in AEW…. first AEW champ and he has a new wrestling faction called the Inner Circle. Even though, AEW has been around for a year or a little over, Jericho is already pretty huge there. I’m sure all that has been driving Vince insane and making him all jealous. That’s why he quickly flip flopped on his feelings about Jericho joining AEW.

If WWE did bring Jericho back, would they treat him right the same way AEW is treating him? No. Jericho did the smart thing staying at AEW and rejecting Vince’s offer ’cause if Chris went back to WWE, they would use him like shit again. The WWE wouldn’t give him main event status like they used to in the past.

I love professional wrestling and support all wrestling companies but I honestly find AEW way better than WWE. AEW is awesome stuff and I’m about to watch “AEW Dynamite” tonight on TNT.

Who are my favorite wrestlers in AEW so far??? These are my choices and I’ll name a top 5 for both male & female wrestlers…

I’ve been watching AEW wrestling ever since they first started with their very first ppv and first live show “Double or Nothing”. So far, I’ve seen every AEW ppv and every TV event they’ve ever done. I’m just really impressed with what they’re doing and AEW is definitely making me feel appreciative of wrestling again. I’ve been watching AEW for a long while and I’m just blown away by all the talent they have there.

You see there is a big difference in between WWE talent and AEW talent. With the WWE roster, they are all very talented wrestlers; however, WWE only allows them to use certain moves and most WWE stars can do more than what you see on their brand. With the AEW brand, they are not as strict and picky when it comes to wrestler moves. In AEW, they allow their wrestlers to do whatever they want in the ring pretty much.

So with that being said here are my top 5 favorite wrestlers in AEW for both male and fewmale talent… I’ll list them in no particular order.

The males:

Chris Jericho: I’ve been a loyal Chris Jerich fan for many years. He impresses me over the years and he still impresses me even to this day when he’s in AEW. I always knew Jericho is very talented. Jericho is still killing it in the ring and killing it on the mic too. Jericho never disappoints every time you see him on TV. Admittedly, Jericho was the reason I wanted to get into AEW wrestling .

Kenny Omega: Before AEW wrestling, I’ve seen a few Kenny Omega matches for New Japan and now Kenny is in AEW, this guy just blows my mind. He was definitely one of the best in the indie wrestling industry and I can see why the man has gotten a lot of buzz for the past few years. Now he’s in AEW full time, I look forward to seeing him on TV. Kenny is a freakin’ badass. The man has the full package…. he has the wrestling skills, great mic work and he’s got a great look too.

Adam “Hangman” Page: Don’t know much about him but what I’m seeing of Adam Page is freakin’ awesome. He’s also one of the best wrestlers who never touched WWE. This guy is also great in the ring, great on the mic and he has an awesome look/gimmick.

Darby Allin: This guy getting my attention as of late. His gimmick is a little silly but man can’t help but notice his wrestling skills. He’s one of the best wrestlers on the AEW roster for sure. My god, that man is amazing and I can definitely see him becoming AEW champ sometime in the future.

MJF: Like most AEW fans, MJF is getting my attention. This guy is just entertaining as hell and also good in the ring and good on the mic.

The females:

Awesome Kong: I’ve been a fan of Awesome Kong since her TNA Impact days so I know she’s freakin’ awesome and she’s still killing it in the ring too.

Dr. Britt Baker: She’s definitely one of the best female wrestlers I’ve seen. Her matches are always exciting to watch.

Riho: I have a thing for Japanese wrestling and Riho just blows my fuckin’ mind in the ring. I just love female Asian wrestling and they are always a blast to watch. These Japanese ladies sure know how to put on a good show.

Hikaru Shida: She’s another Japanese talent who also amazes me. These Japanese talent in the women’s division are awesome.

Brandi Rhodes: She’s the wife of Cody Rhodes. I love her ’cause she has a hot look and she’s also great in the ring although she’s playing the manager role for Awesome Kong right now but Brandi is fucking awesome, I enjoy watching her.

So there you have it. Some of you may ask, why didn’t I name Jon Moxley or Cody Rhodes in the men’s division? They are good but not my favorite. In my opinion, I think Moxley and Rhodes are a bit overrated.

I do enjoy AEW so far and they haven’t disappointed me yet. AEW is changing wrestling whether you want to admit it or not.

“AEW: Full Gear” ppv, I watched it and it was very good. It showed what wrestling fans really want!

Well, so I watched the latest AEW wrestling ppv titled, “Full Gear” last night. The card was pretty impressive so I couldn’t miss it. I wanted to watch the two big main events Chris Jericho vs. Cody Rhodes and Kenny Omega vs. Jon Moxley ’cause I knew those two matches were gonna end up being the best matches of the night and they were. I was very impressed with last night’s AEW ppv. I enjoyed every match. They were all very good but like I said Jericho vs. Rhodes and Omega vs. Moxley were the best.

I’ve been watching AEW ever since they started with their very first ppv “Double or Nothing” and this company is getting better and better. Last night’s ppv “Full Gear”, AEW showed what WWE has been missing all these years: “wrestling”. That’s what fans watch these shows for… fans want to see good wrestling and WWE doesn’t give us that anymore.

AEW knows what kind of wrestling matches we want to see. We want to see matches that tell a story. We want to see thrills and chills and excitement. AEW definitely gave us all that last night which is what WWE has been missing for years. We want to see good wrestling back. WWE matches over the last decade or so has been boring as fuck… they used to be really good in the 80’s and 90’s but WWE has been crap lately and they aren’t getting any better even though they try.

I want to talk about the thrilling Omega vs. Jon Moxley match from last night, though. Their match was called “Lights Out” and it was an unsanctioned match so this match means anything goes. It was a hardcore match. It was a very violent and dark match all the way through and it went on for almost an hour or a little more. They were using all kinds of weapons, barbed wire, chains, etc. There was also a lot of blood too. That “violent” match was nothing new. We had “extreme” hardcore wrestling in the WWE back in the 90’s and there was ECW wrestling but “extreme” wrestling took a long hiatus until now. Hardcore wrestling is officially back and AEW brought back hardcore wrestling.

Watching that match last night Omega vs. Moxley, made me realize how much I miss hardcore and extreme wrestling ’cause I’m a big fan of that style of wrestling. You don’t see that style of wrestling in WWE anymore ’cause WWE banned it since they went PG. After that match last night, I hope WWE is waking up and realizing we want that style of wrestling back. During the Hardcore and extreme era in the 90’s, that’s where Mick Foley as Cactus Jack, Terry Funk, Tommy Dreamer, RVD, The Sandman, the two Holly Brothers – Hardcore and Crash and the Sandman were all a part of in the old WWE and ECW days.

Last night’s AEW ppv was only the beginning, though. I think we’re about to see more and more of Extreme Wrestling in AEW in the future, absolutely. When is AEW going to put on their first steel cage match or a Hell in a Cell style kind of match? I’m sure they will. They are still a pretty new company and they will give us their first “cage/Cell” match very soon, I’m sure.

I am loving AEW more and more and I think Tony Khan is doing a very good job. Tony Khan who is the owner of AEW definitely knows his wrestling for sure and he definitely knows what fans want to see.

AEW is so refreshing, though. So nice to see them calling it “professional wrestling” and not “sports entertainment”. That’s how it should be. If you’re a wrestling fan yourself and if you’re not watching AEW then you should. You’re missing out on some good stuff. Start watching AEW Dynamite on TNT Wednesday nights.

Now I want to start getting some AEW t-shirts soon and I will. I want to get a t-shirt with the All Elite Wrestling logo on the front of it. I also want to get a Chris Jericho shirt, a Kenny Omega shirt and a Adam Hangman Page shirt ’cause they are my favorite now. Man, I hope AEW will start putting on shows in Albany, NY ’cause I would love my chance to see them live in person. What they’re doing is really good.

I’m sure the McMahon family and the WWE are getting really worried now after last night.
