Someone stole Jericho's AEW belt

For those who want to read the police report. https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/czai7k/chris_jericho_was_robbed_and_the_aew_title_was/

I can't help but laugh at some of the comments. For instance, where was R-Truth during that time.. did he steal the wrong belt.

Also someone pointed out that Jericho bad history of first title belt.. He was locked out of his hotel room during his first unified title.. and now as the AEW title winner... he gets his belt stolen while at Longhorn steak house.

They've missed a bet by not having Bray Wyatt's character transform in the ring -- as he does during the video. Would keep the crowd wondering whether the "Mr. Rogers" type character would be who they're seeing -- or Ol' Razortooth. Not to mention what would be the trigger that sent him spiraling that way.

Looks like Undertaker is the guest picker

Except they already announced mcconaughey as the guest picker

You know what Geralt....you can get the hell outta here.

My daughter is now extremely disappointed with Taker because he came out in a t.u. Shirt.

Taker was much more comfortable talking about the UFC fight than the game.

I loved all the "woo's" in the crowd when he mentioned Flair.

Looks like he popped an implant.

What's the story behind that guy Walter is hitting? I keep seeing stuff about him attacking a referee

I don't think it was Walter that attacked the ref, but I've seen that video.

I don't know of any story behind the picture, either, other than it just looks brutal

Walter wasn't involved in the ref incident. The guy Walter is murdering and his tag team partner apparently legitimately attacked a ref after a match, causing not insignificant injury.

Ain't nobody got time for reading comprehension

Saw Walter and PCO at the Spring Break II show during WrestleMania weekend in NOLA. They had a chop fest going on basically half the match.

Talk about red chests afterwards. PCO's was Aggie Maroon.

PCO is like 100 years old. Surprised the chops didn't kill him.

Is stone cold doing a one off appearance here?

Poor Cory Graves can't figure out who the heels are

I believe it was Meltzer who reported that it was originally booked as a surprise appearance but ticket sales were so bad that they started advertising it to boost the attendance.

Man .. can you imagine if Eddie had not died.. a feud between him and the Miz would have been awesome. I wish Andrade had half of Eddie personality.

Great.. Corbin vs Gable.. well that is a match nobody wanted. I like Chad Gable and would love for them to actually do something with him.. but he has had zero.. nada.. no air time for 6 months.. and there is no way he wins King of the Ring.. and Corbin has been push and fail so many time. He needs to be reinvented and repackage.. he has the right tools but he hasn't found the right character yet.

Ugg what a waste.. Kevin vs Drew would have been much better.. ugggg.

I swear the writers for WWE are bad.. that is their problem.
Here are 10 things I would do to make it better.

Overall let the wrestler be a part of writing their lines and story.. give them a goal and bullet points of message and let them draft their lines.. if they need to work on improving their message then have the writers their to work them tweak the words.. and let the wrestler change the lines as long as it meets the overall end point.


1. Roman Reign storyline going nowhere fast. Daniel Bryan and Erik Rowan.. what are you doing with them. End the story w/ Rowan vs Bryan.. see if you can build real heat with Erik... if so keep him as a heel and see if he can continue to grow... it is time.

2. Heavy Machinery should have a storyline.. they have draw ability ..start a story with them. Ideally they should feud with the B-team .. B-team breaks up.. and Bo Dallas falls apart.. and goes dark.. then have him start going from positive to a very dark persona.. eventually he joins his brother .. only when one is positive the other is negative.. no mask...,, oh and don't change Bray.. he is working .. keep him working. and out of the Heavy Machinery storyline.. his interaction should be only with Bo .. afterwords..

3. Baron should drop to mid card and be repackage .. try to build him back up again. Have him feud with someone like Chad Gable "not king of the ring" .. see if they can bring each other up.

4. Asuka needs to be feuding with Ember Moon..

5. Tell stories that people actually care about. .. have a payoff moment. None of these story are interesting. I can't believe it .. but I am missing Vickie Guerrorro, Teddy Long or someone to move the show along... and build a major storyline and several b, c and d stories into the show.

6. Do something with Cesaro .. doesn't need to be in the title hunt.. just do something interesting with him.

7. Hire Stone Cold to be a regular on RAW.. where he leads a faction against a Shane-O-Mac... .. in the end their team fights in Survivor Series.. .. but spend the next few months building a faction vs faction. The vigentte w/ Stone Cold alone would make the show worth watching.. and he is good at bringing out the best in the other wrestler.

8 Fin Balor joins the OC .. they go for all 4 belt in their brand. They continue w/ Stroman and Rollins.. 4 vs 2 .. allows for some nice mismatch.. keep Stroman looking like a beast.

9. Continue the R-truth and 24 -7 story/belt.. they are actually doing something here.. expand it to bring up some of the mid card .. to fletch out characters and to give the audience a better appreciation on the guys we rarely see on tv.

10. Bring back Cass and Enzo .. yea they are a-holes but they bring money.. they audience eat them up and they have been punish enough. Start working a show with them and the Viking...

I think the hard brand split will actually help some of the middle guys.

I swear I read somewhere that they just started doing it this way. Like last week I think.

Cass may be welcomed back, but I think Enzo burned his bridges with brass and the lockerroom

I'm on the fence with a few of those picks, so I may change them before Sunday

The KOTR finals has been moved to RAW following Sunday's PPV.

oh good a year of king Corbin

I like the sound of King Chad

Ill get my picks in later, but I would love to see Seth drop the championship to Braun, but have them retain the Tag belts. They could get some distance out of that story.

I think they wanted to do this in the beginning, but Drew got injured and had to have surgery. So that idea went out the window.

I still would have liked to have Kevin win King of the Ring and then you could have built to a King Kevin vs. Best in the World Shane with Kevin finally going over and ending the feud with Shane.
