AEW
A REVOLUTION... they say!
And it certainly does feel like it
- does it not?!?
And when one hears Cody Rhodes say those words
- "we use the word REVOLUTION 'cause this is a
REVOLUTION!" -
it reverberates throughout time and history;
the history of wrestling, full of such bold statements.
But this is where and when it truly rings true;
more so than it ever did before...
It should have been the NWA Four Horsemen
changing things like this - but it was not quite it,
was it? Instead of Ric Flair, Tully Blanchard
and the Andersons, it's Kenny Omega, Cody Rhodes
and the Young Bucks having such a huge... IMPACT.
Huge, humongous impact on this industry:
the likes of which even ECW never was capable of.
Lately, ROH and Lucha Underground have tried, too...
TNA used to want to have this sort of "pull"
but the fans are now seeing it differently -
it is not meant to be them.
It is meant to be... this AEW REVOLUTION indeed!
A true revolution, without a doubt:
light years above what Shane Douglas could achieve
with his old ECW pals or the gang he formed
with two defecting Horsemen, the late great Eddie Guerrero
and Perry Saturn, in the latter days of WCW -
that was barely a true "revolution"
- it was more like mere dissension in the ranks
and its very leader wound up staying on
with the new regime, afterwards...!
CODY RHODES... did not do that.
He did depart - and led the way
to this "industry facelift" and "paradigm shift"
as Jon Moxley so deftly described... just before this:
Hmm... Already playing hardball, eh?
Those four guys:
CODY RHODES... KENNY OMEGA...
THE YOUNG BUCKS...
They truly are at the forefront of a true
REVOLUTION here:
it was not to be Ric Flair's Horsemen...
sure as hell not the nWo...
not Paul E. Dangerously's Alliance or ECW...
not any faction led by Shane Douglas...
NEVER going to be the Hart Foundation...
not Ring Of Honor - Jay Lethal or not...
not Wrestle Circus...
not Lucha Underground...
and definitely not TNA IMPACT.
(DX...?
It doesn't even deserve a mention!!)
ALL ELITE
WRESTLING
is it!
WRESTLING
is it!
now the only thing missing
is a sponsorship deal
with
A&W
The A&W Bear loooooooved WCW too!
