some low stakes AEW questions
By Scott Keith on 20 February 2025
venues have helped a lot, but killing Rampage is right up there for me
as far as positive changes go. Collision seems to matter now and I
actually look forward to watching every week. Fun times. I hope they
can keep it up.
That said, here are a few low stakes questions I've been pondering since
I've been more engaged with the product:
1. Where do you think this Max Caster thing is going? He gets a good
amount of tv time for someone who just gets squashed week after week.
Meanwhile, Bowens is MIA. The best I can come up with is Caster is
finally humbled enough to go back to Bowens and it's status quo again,
which doesn't feel that exciting.
2. What happened to Taven and Bennett? I know the answer is probably
“who cares,” but I thought they acquitted themselves pretty well over
the last year or two as a couple of punchable goons and was disappointed
they never got more run as an actual tag team (ROH doesn't count). I
know there's stuff going on with Maria, but it's a shame that they got
dropped from the Undisputed Kingdom the way that it seems they did.
3. Speaking of which, do we think there's a plan for the Undisputed Era
reunion beyond “we didn't have anything better for them”? It's nice to
have active trios for the trios division, but unless they can somehow
get themselves back to the match against the Elite that we were robbed
of 3 years ago, it feels like the Undisputed ship has long since passed.
4. Do you think the Kenny/Takeshita feud ultimately leads to the
International and Continental titles being unified this summer at All
In? Is that just wishful thinking on my part?
1. I think eventually Bowens is gonna answer the open challenge and squash Max to end their deal for good.
