Christian is the only other guy they have who can pull so much heat in an instance. Callis is great in what he does, not gonna lie. Ari Davari, AR Fox, Brandon Cutler, Chuck Taylor, Colt Cabana, Dralistico, Keith Lee, Kib Sabian, Nakazawa, Peter Avalon, Preston Vance, Scorpio Sky. Those guys you can easily cut from the roster aswell, since they don't bring any value to AEW or ROH TV.

The biggest surprise is they chose to let go of good wrestlers like Gravity & Stu Grayson & keep garbage wrestlers like Satnam Singh. Smh!

Letting Dalton Castles boys go is ridiculous. When I saw AEW live for Collision, that was the most fun of the show.

Stu: Released twice. Didn't draw a dime. Jose: Who? Dasha: She was more tolerable than Justin Roberts The Boys: Castle is interesting but this run hasn't been as good as the old days. Gravity: He floated off. Jora: Who? Henry: Who? SlimJ: Who? Boudreaux: He didn't have the mentality to do it and that is what cost him NXT (aside from being with Gacy). I remember the smarks were going to meme him into being the next Brock Lesnar.

I'm really starting to think the reason why people really have no interest in ring of honor is due to the ring of honor being a subscription service and having no new KZread videos and every one or two months on what's actually going on. Think about it you have AEW which they show some of your matches on KZread. And then in TNA wrestling you can watch their wrestling matches on KZread. Meanwhile with Ring of Honor it's a closed door only some people know what's going on in Ring of Honor, because Tony for some odd reason do not want to have ring of honor in a TV channel or even have a subscription service like on KZread.

Was rather a fan of the Trustbusters on Dark and am disappointed they couldn't get anywhere. Stable could have been a lot of fun had AEW committed to it and possibly built guys up there a la Dark Order. Jora Johl also could have been handled better. Always felt he was a more of a fit for somebody like The House of Black than the Hardy Family Office. You could have put Kenny Omega in the Hardy Family Office and the group still wouldn't have gotten anywhere. That was just a bad idea from the jump. Johl deserved a better group to be associated with. Guy has a lot of talent and could be a very threatening heel if the right promoter gets behind him.

All that released and nobody noticed the difference🤣

AEW released Gravity. Now they will have even more unnecessary high-flying spots in each match 😂 But really sucks that AEW had to release some wrestlers but that's what happens when you offer every indie wrestler a contract and then dont use 60% of the roster. Hope they don't repeat that mistake
