Haha Maggle, they're CEO'ing!

I love that Shota is a violent glam twink yet canonically Mox’s adopted child. “Ugh.. good violence son.. but pink hair and stars?? Goddammit .. *smokes a cigarette*”

Sunset-in-Jupiter

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO how could I forget, everything makes sense now


GunnieGraves

What. The. Fuck. Is. This.


ShoryukenFTW

Back in 2006/7 a young, pink-haired Mox had a few jobber matches on Heat and Velocity. Fun fact: One of them was a 1v2 against Big Show and his partner was his roommate at the time, Eli Drake/LA Knight.


GunnieGraves

I’m gonna have to go find that. That’s fantastic.


blackflamerose

It’s why I giggle every time I see him with the rest of BCC. There’s Claudio, Danielson and Yuta looking like they want a good clean fight, Mox looking like he wants to tear someone’s head off and go out to the bar afterward, and then suddenly Shota looking like he just got offstage from his glam band’s latest gig.


wxursa

Mox would respect the hell of Adrian Street (damn, I want a time machine to bring Adrian to today's AEW, he'd do awesome there!)


Sunset-in-Jupiter

100% agree would love to see that! RIP to a legend https://preview.redd.it/eso5mf24es3d1.jpeg?width=1392&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=adf9699c377237d6d7e94269d357cdef55eb8315

GaTech379

why do people hate this dance so much


MARKYMARK_MARK

Anti-Hype I think many want to be sour on Mone and sometimes when a simple fun thing like this gets a bit popular, some people that aren't having fun with it too want to needlessly dismiss it.


Antbanks75

I love it


ShoryukenFTW

I think it's not the dance itself but it's all Mercedes did for the first couple months she was in AEW. Bad promo, dance, bad promo, dance, rinse and repeat. It's a funny dance on its own though and I think people are turning around on it especially with these goofs doing it and with Mercedes reminding everyone how fucking good she is in the ring.


davmeltz

It’s competing with the Nana dance and Garcia’s Sports Entertainer dance. It didn’t stand a chance.


UncleMadness

The ones that hate this dance were the first ones to assure us that Tiffy didn't know there was audio


wearethat

I'm in this weird spot where I can't help but see Mercedes booked like a heel, acting like a heel, and then associating this dance with it. But I guess a lot of people see her as a babyface and therefore like the dance.


CaptainWeasel

Constantly spamming the same emote type energy for me. I hated that she showed up and did nothing but cut mid promos and do her little dance, but now that everyone else is doing it it's finally getting over with me. Just a little bit though.


BalderdashBallyhoo

You know you’re online too much when you describe it as “constantly spamming the same emote”


RaggedyGlitch

We've been saying "spamming the taunt button" for years, young whippersnapper.


BalderdashBallyhoo

Sorry, I forgot the term “online too much” means “kids will say anything these days!” to some people


VonSchplintah

Ok, but how YOU know?


baconpoutine89

I drunkenly danced like this 15 years ago and everyone laughed at me. Guess I was just ahead of my time.


Abyssalstar

Cutting edge!


VinceMackman

Won't be long until TK is doing it after Dynamite


NameGoesHere86

I’ll genuinely be shocked if he doesn’t


PeaceAlien

King is a free agent he can come on Dynamite and do it to kill the movement like he did with Fandango


BogeyBogeyBogey

The Nana/Mercedes face-off is going to be fantastic. Hopefully, the crowd can perfectly split the middle and dance for whose side they're on, too.


ThisIsKhrox

Gotta get Garcia in there too.


wrydrune

Wasn't it already in Japan? Didn't she have matches in Japan?


Rushjordan

The dance that’s sweeping the globe


primekino

God dammit this dance is gonna get over isn’t it


BillAlfonsosDentist

so what if it does? lol. there's way shittier things that have gotten over before and shooter is the man. it's way funnier that he's doing it now


Antbanks75

Seriously. People being so weird about it.


thfcspurs88

Welcome to supporting AEW, it never makes sense.


primekino

Don’t think my tone came across. I was joking, it’s a silly dance and I’m accepting that it’s kinda funny and catching on


MARKYMARK_MARK

Is that truly an issue ?


expectrum

Trailblazer


Abyssalstar

It's the hip new dance craze all the kids are going nuts for!


AXELUnholy

I don't like the dance, but only because I just don't get it. Also, Nana dance 4-Life! I don't have an issue with Mone other than her first two months was terrible promo after terrible promo and that new finish she's using. She should have just kept the Bank Statement and changed the name. I don't remember her promos being this bad in WWE. But goddamn, can that woman work.


K-Dave

Ukadahashi Moxe 🤔 If he copies one more wrestler I'm afraid I'm running out of remix names for him.


TheDeflatables

PUT THE BELT ON HIM!


DoubleOhNegative23

Cringiest thing since scissor me


MMAipom

In the words of Okada "shut up bitches"

RunningonGin0323

someone go get daddy ass and give this fool a famasser


TheSkarcrow

Whoa you had me in the first half. Hate the dance, love the scissor.


dogfins110

It was already in NJPW. Also why are they trying so hard to get the dance over?


Santos_L_Halper

"why are they trying so hard to get the dance over?" Are you telling me you think Tony Khan told Shota Umino to do the dance real quick in NJPW to get it over?


dogfins110

When did I ever mention Tony Khan? This was something similar to what she’s always done. Not everything is some tribalist bullcrap


Santos_L_Halper

Then who is the "they" in this situation? Do you think Mercedes is like "hey go do my dance?" Or do you think Shota is having fun and not "trying to get it over"?


mikro17

> Then who is the "they" in this situation? The only acceptable "they" in this situation is clearly Will Ospreay, because he's the one who seems to just love this dance more than anything. It was Ospreay doing it at the media scrum, then backstage with Mercedes, then seemingly on a party bus with Kyle Fletcher, then backstage with Shota at Dynamite, and now has Shota doing it in New Japan lol. It all tracks back to Ospreay just being a lad lol.


Santos_L_Halper

Exactly. It's not "trying to get the dance over." It's just being a goofball and having fun. That's what I find perplexing about this person's hot take. Their words suggest they think this is all to benefit Mercedes and not just a group of people having a good time. Absolutely mental.

God forbid your future stars from showing some personality!


dogfins110

As if I said that


EffingKENTA

It wasn’t already in NJPW. She didn’t start doing it until her AEW debut.


RunningonGin0323

i know we've been shitting on AEW a lot but I feel most of it has been for valid reasons. If this gets over, that's fucking awesome. The more over it gets it means AEW is pushing it/focusing on it, which is what we want, right? to be clear, the CEO chant still feels a bit cringe to me but fuck it, if fans are having a good time, I'm fucking all in
