I noticed Scorpio Sky isn't listed here on the AEW roster i know there was a report that his contract was up in october but his name was still shown on the entrance video for skyflight last collision during Matt Sydal and Darius Martin's entrances so he must've signed a new deal also still listed on the official roster page on AEW's website also he had a match on Ring Of Honor recently

  @DJ Aphrodite Henrys Bartholomews The Second Cometh AEW is great at managing their online roster. Hell, Keith Lee is still signed to them, and SDH took him off of the AEW roster, despite him still being signed. He's just inactive, still on AEW's roster.

Okay, for the people who stay awake and watch New Japan Pro Wrestling here's some updates:
Will Ospreay will face Callum Newman at Wrestle Kingdom 21
Kenny Omega challenges for the IWGP World Heavyweight championship when he goes one on one against Yota tsuji and the match will also be at Wrestle Kingdom 21. I would say Callum stays Tweener, Kenny is definitely acting Tweener, he's on AEW Hiatus while acting as a heel in new Japan.

I Am Coming back forget I said that I was going to take a break. Listen Chad was not trying to get a second chance, every since he came to smackdown hotel he has been doing nothing but harassing others, especially me & Roy. I literally posted an apology and Roy commented he accepted Roy's apology but not mine. when I announced the break he said about time! You really think he's looking for a second chance? Nah, he's tricking you to play innocent one.

  @Roy We knew he wasn't long for NXT. He was an established TNA name, but you have to feel Bad for Tony D'Angelo. He's been in NXT for 5-6 years, and yet Santana was there for a few months and is now on Raw.

  @Wright its like a pattern, wwe releases people that have worked under them for a while and then brings in the new nxt superstars to replace those people… like some of those nxt superstars dont even last in nxt more than Tony D and still gets to be called up.

I have a question for everyone here: what do you consider to be the most underrated professional wrestling entrance theme song, in your opinion?

Me personally, I'd have to go with Joe Gacy's NXT theme, "Love is Blind."

  @Wright I'm Coming back just for this one comment. I Like songs where the crowd sings along to or has a chant in it. I like Will Ospreay's theme "Elevated"

  @MrAicrow They're doing it because of the WarGames match bloodline will probably have against 946, but I think he should've had a little more time as a singles guy

Gunther should be upper card again because he’s feuding with Finn Bálor
- 5 Up 3 Down

sky_h1ghr · 2 days ago
Finn Bálor should be moved back to mid card since he's feuding mainly with Gunther nowadays with Sami, Punk, and Owens being the upper carders of SmackDown. Nia and Lash should also be moved back to mid card but since they're not appearing on SmackDown for weeks now, they could be moved to inactive list. Nikki and Roxanne should go up to the upper card after contending on Chelsea's title recently.

Davey Castegnaro · 3 days ago
El Grande Americano, Cruz Del Toro, and Joaquin Wilde should all be moved to Inactive since they all appear on AAA now instead of WWE.
Meanwhile, the War Raiders and Damian Priest should be taken off the AAA roster since those guys haven't appeared over there in a hot minute.
