Nobody is even sure if the chip is meant to be their MITB equivalent. I really hope it’s not
Why do you hope that it isn't??

Seems like WWE lite. They got it over so we’ll have our own. I’d love for AEW to be innovative. Weirdly enough I don’t think they take enough chances when their fanbase would be very forgiving if they tried.Why do you hope that it isn't??

They had a random Rumble on Rampage not that long ago, if theyre going to steal anything they should straight rip that off imo. MITB cash ins are a bit tired these days anyway
If people had to say who will cash in their respective opportunity first, and will either be successful at doing so, Theory with his briefcase, or MJF with his casino chip??
I hope the chip isn't like money in the bank, mainly because I've always hated the whole cash in idea.
It's just a half baked way to protect the champion while losing, but it starts the new reign on weak footing and forces a cowardly cheating heel approach. It can work occasionally, but when it becomes the same thing year after year the last thing we need is 2 companies doing it.

Okay, so what else could the chip be used as?
Impact at least had a unique way of getting around it with their "Feast or Fired" briefcases for a short period of time, (then created "Option C"), at the moment it does seem AEW are going down the blatant rip off category (just as they have done with "Blood and Guts" being a "War Games" rip off).
AEW does seem to be running out of steam, in terms of coming up with new ideas of their own.

Yeah, Chip has always been challenge for the belt (and done in advance). Its never been a 'cash in'.
Its a shame how the rankings have just been dropped.
Caught up on Dynamite. Crowd was damn hot. Always good when they go to new markets
Renee looks great. as always.
Billy Gunn must be the most over hes been since saying suck it. Which is still funny that suck it and scissor me are his two biggest things in wrestling.
The ROH title match was great. But yet another title match loss for Danielson.
That was Hangmans best promo forever.
Cassidy winning the title. Meh, im not bothered either way. But they should just have Miro come in and smash him for the title.
The womens match was good. Glad Shida is back, but every week they just mix up women in tag matches. That division needs something, and not just signings. But direction. I hope theyre not waiting for Thunder Rosa to return to start the Hayter turn on Brit. They should have that going on, and away from the title. Then just have a title program (so at least two womens stories).
Disagree about OC, he's been such a consistent performer for AEW, his character has come a long way from the guy-who-can't-be-bothered novelty, and he's always well supported. I'm like JR, thought he was rubbish originally and now I'm completely sold.
He deserves a bit of a run with the title, although your idea would be great in a couple of months!
That title is about as worthwhile as the 24/7 title, neither have any true value.
?
Pac is better than anyone who held the 24/7 title. So that instantly gives the title more credibility. Plus it doesnt have joke guys chasing after it
Its a travelling title so it'll be defended against AEW talent on shows, but will also go around defending it on the indies.
Agree. I've pretty much not watched it since he left bar some big PPVs. Bray embodies the kind of persona, storytelling, mystique etc that I like in wrestling and makes me intrigued to watch again.The Bray entrance and promo was absolutely epic. Just like his fiend character for me he was the most interesting thing in wrestling.
No fecking thanks, I hope that prick doesn't step foot near the company ever again.Vinny Mac can make his long awaited return
Errrrr......Orange is literally a joke character, with his pretend kicks etc....so yeah it matches the 24/7 title.
The 24/7 title was a travelling title, it was won on television sets, and a lot of other places as well.
Haha was just a joke about the amazing "It's me Austin! It was me all along Austin"No fecking thanks, I hope that prick doesn't step foot near the company ever again.

He's a really good wrestler. Yes he obviously does a lot of comedy during his matches, which usually just confuses opponents rather than hurting them. But no he isnt a joke character. That would be something like maximum male models where they do their comedy bits, lose all the time and never get any respectable wins. Orange has been having good matches and been winning matches for many years.
The 24/7 title wasnt a wrestling title. It was an entertainment title. Thats why lots of non wrestlers held it

HHH is definitely pressing the Attitude Era nostalgia but with his own take on it. Factions are a bigger thing again, hopefully a couple join forces and Vinny Mac can make his long awaited return as the "Higher Power" to ruin everything.

Wrestling or WWE?So is Wrestling worth watching again? I think it’s been about 10 months or more since I really watched it. Seen little bits on YouTube and some stories and performers look quite interesting. Might dip a toe back in the water.
Saw Bray is back. Never really been a massive fan of his but mostly due to it seems like he just never ever wrestled. Promo, promo, mystique, heist, lose at PPV. Stories always started well then burned out or fell in to absolute nonsense.
Hopefully finally starts to show he deserves all the hype and adulation he gets by actually performing in the ring.
With regards to WWE Ive been semi lapsed for a while, just watching the PPV (sorry, PREMIUM) events but there are definitely encouraging signs now the HHH is running the show and its pulling me back in on a more regular basis, Id like t get more into AEW but just find the ITV app so fecking useless and buggy it ruins the experience for me and I tune outSo is Wrestling worth watching again?

Please do, the more of us complain about this convenient and helpful evilness the better!Fite is good.
That reminds me, I know an absolutely vile website that has the cheek to stream all wrestling FOC. I've filled in a few reports. If i PM it to you, can you too report them and hopefully take these bastards down!

I still keep my wwe network sub, mainly to watch classic wcw and territory stuffI think WWE is on BT Sport so you can keep up with it.
For AEW, the Fite app is what I use and it's great, it's something like £6 a month.
Hangman nearly had his career ended last night just after Trent got dumped on his head and struggled to recover a year after neck fusion. Looked like a stinger.
Maybe everybody needs to slow down a bit.
To be fair the Hangman one was a routine clothesline - just a bit of a freak incident.
The dumping of people on their heads in general does have to stop though.
