I'm 99% sure this is part of the storyline to get Rated RKO together versus Ciampa/???. I want to believe that Edge is not that oblivious that superkicks were the thing people complained about that match. Match that actually got good reviews by most people.
I just don't see any way the plan is to get Rated RKO back together. It makes so sense on several levels (first and foremost that no one is going to boo Edge at this point, especially coming back from another big injury).cero2k wrote: ↑Jun 24th, '20, 21:25I'm 99% sure this is part of the storyline to get Rated RKO together versus Ciampa/???.

ALSO, no way neither Edge or Orton could pull off either number of Superkicks or dives anyway
i don't think the plan is for a heel RatedRKO. I've just been hearing a lot of rumors of plans for Edge and RatedRKO, but idk what's gonna happen.Big Red Machine wrote: ↑Jun 24th, '20, 21:34

And it's somehow run it's course lol.
I'm sorry, but I don't see how Jeff has any sort of case here.Meltzer wrote:Jeff Jarrett's lawsuit against Impact Wrestling and Anthem is scheduled to go to trial tomorrow. Jarrett had given Impact the rights to use his Global Force Wrestling tapes while he worked for the company, but felt that once he was no longer with the company, they had no rights to the tapes. Impact, which had the master tapes, had deleted them.
neither do I, it's at the end, Jarrett's stupidity to give out the one and only copy of the shows and not keeping a copyBig Red Machine wrote: ↑Jun 29th, '20, 19:56I'm sorry, but I don't see how Jeff has any sort of case here.Meltzer wrote:Jeff Jarrett's lawsuit against Impact Wrestling and Anthem is scheduled to go to trial tomorrow.

I find this whole thing so curious. If WWE wanted to hurt AEW by going head-to-head and the EVOLVE show did well in viewership, but they didn't do it again? That might almost indicate that it really was a coincidence, except that- as Dave points out- WWE has a history of doing this... but then why would they abandon a strategy that they've liked in the past and that worked well this time? It's baffling.Meltzer in this week's Observer wrote:The one thing is that a lot of people say and do a lot of things and people forget in time. This being the one year anniversary of Fight for the Fallen, if you recall, WWE Network put on an Evolve show head-to-head. Granted, WWE had talked for years about putting indie shows on the network and has the rights to a number of libraries that it has done nothing with. There were the complaints of WWE counter booking, which is fine, although it also was a charity show. But WWE portrayed the timing as a coincidence, but any study of WWE history would tell you it wasn’t, since in the 80s they did the same thing and also claimed these arenas and dates were booked a year plus ahead and it was a coincidence. But the Evolve show got almost all positive responses, and did well in viewership, and here we are a year later, and WWE never did another show like it again. ..
Fight of the Fallen last year wasn't on a Wednesday, they haven't had to do these stunts with other than NXT since it's all been Wednesdays. GAB was 1000% obviously a counter for FF. When WWE realized that they didn't have a GAB for FotF this year, they made two impromptu big matches, one on the very same show. I know you hate to accept it, but WWE counter-books AEW, it's what NXT has been since they went on USA. There is zero coincidence, and if they drop strategies, it's because they tend to get killed when trying.Big Red Machine wrote: ↑Jul 17th, '20, 11:57I find this whole thing so curious.

Is it possible that the not putting other things on the Network was a Wilson/Barrios thing and that might change now that they're gone? Just speculation, but given Dave's note about Evolve 100 doing well, it's the only explanation I can come up with.
