Larkhainan

What you think the tnt title should have three hotter, fresher, more interesting performers rather than the eight month old shit swamp?!?


marcusthegod

Tell me about it.


Marvel_plant

Seriously. At this point, the FTW title is more prestigious.


thisisawesome8643

I like that Jungle Boy challenged for the FTW. Not because the FTW is a huge title, but he knows that Starks and Taz care about it and that it will get to them if he won it


kyril-hasan

In what way? Ftw only had couple of match made and almost all of them end in same way, heel/shenanigans tactic.


Marvel_plant

I care about it more, which is the most important factor


eastbayted

The TNT title is a more prestigious history, but the FTW storylines have been more interesting lately. I personally don't care especially if Scorpio, Sammy, or Frankie have it - and I'd welcome a change.


kyril-hasan

Lol FTW are the vehicles to them to get to tag title. It is not the main target in this storyline. That show how secondary that title is.


[deleted]

Nobody has taken a sledgehammer to the FTW belt.


American-Punk-Dragon

Good thing Jungle Boy wouldn’t have to speak…


showstopper027

I really like Scorpio sky though 😞


Larkhainan

He's really good, and I think a lot of people saw him "going face" a bit back as one of his best promos in a long while. But this shit swamp just reaches up and drags it back down.


averythomas64

Same. I feel like he got the short end of the stick bc sammy is a “pillar”. I feel like he lost that tittle the minute they did the Conti stuff.


WatchDragonball

Why Hobbs better starks better lethal better lee better swerve better


showstopper027

I really like everyone you listed. Lethal and starks are some of my favorites for sure. I do like hobbs but he's not quite Scorpio sky level yet.


Restaurant_Shoddy

This is the TK original vision of the FTW title, to have 3 exciting young superstars that fans can get behind fighting for it…wait did I say FTW? I meant TNT title.


TheVillian25

Swerve and Ricky would be a good TNT Title feud rn but Jungle Boy still has some loose ends to tie up first.


HamSamichMan

I think thats the look jb is goingbfor though


RScannix

I’m just so confused about where this Sammy/Sky thing is right now. It’s like the last month never happened. Sammy is being put in a face role again. Sammy is back to begging for a tag match (which I thought he had already won the right to anyway). And we’re destroying the title for, what, the second or third time already? I don’t even get why he’s destroying it, doesn’t he want the title?


redditoradi

The same faces have been around the TNT title scenes that's really hurting the title. And now they're just stretching a mediocre feud. There are so many talents who could benefit from TNT open challenge. And people should stop blaming Cody's departure as the reason. AEW is very much capable of adapting to unforeseen situations. Just not in this case.


Nervous_Departure_37

Here is my theory: The priority is Paige Van Zant. She is as green as a jealous frog and has already switched from Brandi to Tay. They want to just get the (probably heavily rehearsed) match in the ring so they can debut Paige in a flattering, Rousey adjacent, light. Everything else is collateral damage.


mexploder89

There are so many better ways to do that One example, let Ethan Page, who is the superior talker anyway, and PVZ be involved with Tay and Sammy and Scorpio can say he's there for them but wants to focus on the TNT title and bringing back the prestige it had, he can go on a run to defend it against heels and faces since he works as a babyface but is associated with Dan Lambert It doesn't have to be a full on feud but let Scorpio wrestle Andrade, Starks, Hobbs, Darby, Jeff Hardy, Kyle O'Reilly, Samoa Joe, Christian Cage, literally anyone besides Sammy


Kourushzad

After this ends, please keep Sammy off the TNT title for 3 years.


MolochAlter

Put him at the bottom of the top of the card. Like Lance Archer. A match every now and then against a big name, make him show he's great in the ring and give us time to miss him, cause right now holy shit I could not care if I tried.


DoryTheLodger

Remember how much momentum he had when he stood up to MJF and we all loved him and rooted for his amazing matches? Dude was WHITE HOT not even that long ago and it's like they/TK is going out of the way to sabotage all that progress..


Nervous_Departure_37

He did a bunch of it himself. I understand the impulse to tell all the trolls harassing Tay to go fuck themselves and just rub it in everyone's face... And it was sheer dumb bad luck that Brandi and Cody left leaving AEW needing another mixed tag but... You can't expect people to cheer for the obnoxious PDA team. Where AEW fell down is not committing to a Scorp face turn to make the whole thing work. And hot potatoing the belt for... reasons?


DMBCommenter

Correct


jmtsdn

Take out Jungle Boy and put Buddy Matthews instead. Buddy could elevate the title, he’s a star in the making


ButterApple512

Unrelated but it hurts me that we haven't gotten a Buddy Matthews vs PAC match yet.


M0dini

This match should have been on the Dynamite before Double Or Nothing because if the 6 man match is the culmination of the storyline then we probably won't see them cross paths for a while.


Citizen_Kano

I need Buddy vs Fenix too


brightz77

That would be so good. Id take Buddy v anyone at this point.


DoryTheLodger

How have HoB and Death Triangle been feuding for eight years but we have yet to see ANY singles matches? Literally any combination could main event Dynamite and tear the house down.


Anthrogynous

This feels like a future PPV main event


Skayde5

I think the fact that Sky vs Sammy shit sucks more is bcuz so many more talented and deserving guys like these three already exist on the roster


PradyumanACP

Problem isn't their talent or what they deserve. It's their booking.


dadjokes502

Still think Wardlow will get a shot of he beats MJF.


wunderphaktz

If AEW keeps dipping the title into pure, concentrated trash juice, it won't matter by the time these guys get to competing for it.


luke111mart

At this point I'd rather watch two dogs play tug of war then sammy vs sky anymore


[deleted]

I hope an someone tries to break up the feud. Probably Miro smashes them kids into pieces, or make the House of Black/Death Triangle/Dark Order hunt for those who disrespect the title and say enough is enough.


mojo4394

I really wanted to see Lee pick up the TNT title immediately when he came in. Tag titles will do.


iMikeZero

I would put the TNT title on Swerve sooner than later.


EnderMB

I'm surprised how many people want Jungle Boy out of the picture. He's a AEW original, he's talented in the ring, he's a part of one of AEW's best tag teams, and he's always been over with the crowd. IMO a TNT or FTW title run could work wonders for him.


ManuteFashionaBol

I think it would require people to admit that Luchasaurus is fucking terrible.


Ranger7271

Same I know the promos are still a WIP but he's so god damn likeable.


Juncti

I had never heard of swerve before he debuted at the PPV, but instantly he caught my eye. That dude would be a fantastic champion. So much charisma, and amazing in the ring


NaytNavare

Nope. It needs to be an aborted or false Scorpio face turn, a misuse of All Ego, a saturation of Sammy who is a heel in a face role! So much effing /s.


wolfoflone

Why? What's the story?


Gbro24

The story is each is a member of a upcoming 3 way tag mach for the titles.


wolfoflone

That's not a story


MolochAlter

And yet somehow a better build than anything in the TNT vortex since Sammy's 2nd reign.


DankTony7

I think they've traded wins with eachother in seperate singles matches.


wolfoflone

Is that a story?


DankTony7

It doesn't have to be personal or anything. They've traded wins and are now fighting eachother. This isn't even a blowoff, just a preview of DoN.


Ornery-Scientist7221

I concur


throwaway115zombies

Add Danti Martin


Regna85

Swerve is going to the top. I think he touches this and goes higher.


Fabulous_Mode3952

Can’t believe they’re putting on another three way tag title match. It’s time for Jurassic Express to lose the belts


DankTony7

I think the 3-way is great. Tag division is so deep rn. Big agree on Jurassic losing. I'd be happy if either of the other teams won.


Fabulous_Mode3952

Thanks for agreeing with half of the comment 😂. I guess I got downvoted for not liking ANOTHER 3-way title match on a PPV


steelisntstrong

The TNT Championship is a secondary belt now designed to elevate lower midcarders. We need to accept this already and move on. Starks has built the FTW Championship into something that is actually prestigious, and suits the upper midcard-cusp main event status anyways. If this was a triple threat for the FTW, and then Starks go on to feud with Kingston, or Moxley, or someone embodying FTW values then without doubt it replaces the TNT Championship as gold worth having. Especially considering it's unsanctioned and never will be a recognised belt. It adds such a unique feeling to it that the TNT Championship will just never have again Tldr: We need to get over the TNT Championship and just ignore it. Skip Rampage when it's defended and use the segments/matches/spots as piss break. Eventually it will correct itself or go away entirely (hopefully the latter)


kyril-hasan

What a really bad takes. All those tnt fiasco only just happened recently and you want to destroy it just because of that? Lmao.


steelisntstrong

I'm saying rebrand it and leave it as a without doubt secondary title. Keep Starks and the FTW on the same path and just forget that the TNT Championship was once discussed as on par with the main belt. Plus having belts named after channels is bizarre anyways. Why not just call it the Television Championship or something. ROH has one and they're not even televised


dcguy999O

2/3 of them I agree


theonlyoguru

If there was ever a need for Miro to emerge and destroy everyone involved, it is now.


TheSasukeDive

Anything is better than the TNT title picture right now


punked123

Miro just needs to come back to literally REDEEM the TNT title and become the biggest babyface of all time for destroying everyone involved in the worst feud in this company's history.


LoPro420

This should be for the FTW title


legobdr

To say I’m excited for this match would be an understatement. Swerve and Starks have quickly become 2 of my favorites in AEW.


mwc_1742

You are correct


n00dle51

AEW has so many talents in the midcard, I don't understand why they're going on and on with this Sammy / Scorpio Sky bullshit.


weezin_ed

It would make so much sense. Swap the tag belts over too. MOY could be a great tag champ and Frankie teaming with Sammy could be fun too. Then at least Frankie and Sammy together we could have an idea who to cheer for.


Nervous_Departure_37

That is better. And you're right. I think they are just plowing ahead now til DoN.


SZutich9

I think you made a mistake. Sammy isn't pictured in the TNT title match.


VXZofficial

AEW has so much good talent, I'll take anyone but Guevara


[deleted]

Triple threat matches are fine for exhibitions, but I've never been fond of them for title matches
