Not sure why Max wouldn't want it as an exclusive show. What would they have to lose? But I also suspect that we are still waiting for whatever the deal is with "Shockwave" (or whatever it ends up being called).
Actually that could be an excuse or defence. They're waiting for movement on the potential new shows to use the said talent. Orchestrated campaigns deserve such tactics in return.
I've been avoiding social media since last week. What's this about? Is it still Miro / Starks discourse? I've clearly missed something because this is the 4th or 5th post I've seen about unused talent in the 20 minutes I've been back on here.
It's Ricky Starks asking for his release. Along with the usual suspects some AEW fans are also in favour of releasing unused talent. It's a no win situation and if the pressure is directed towards TK some of us will point out the other view.
Gotchya. I've always been of the mindset he should just let them go. Anyone who doesn't wanna be there. 5 years of TV has shown us that nobody is a major "needle mover" that the show can't do without. If they aren't happy, let them go. I wanna watch people who like their jobs. It shines thru on TV.
I'm inclined to your view but having your hand forced by the pile on (potentially largely orchestrated) and setting a bad precedent to be manipulated again makes one reluctant to let them go. These 'campaigns' are not helping Ricky and co's case.
No, not at all. I personally side with Tony on all these situations, even though my let them go stance has never changed. I've felt that way forever for both companies. They don't wanna be there, let them go. Free up capital for someone who does wanna be there.
Sit down with WBD and explain to them the campaign to weaponise the unused talent against AEW and how bringing back Dark and using said talent will take away one of the arguments made for releasing the talent. Call their bluff.
Even if that show is on Max. Honestly they could do a few shows on Max. I’d watch them. ROH should be on Max. Another show with a lot of talent that aren’t getting used on Dynamite or Collision could be on Max. It doesn’t have to be old Dark/Dark Elevation where a lot of it was local talent jobbing.
