I honestly feel like they have a bit of an identity crisis with how niche they are compared to the amount of niche elements they present.
They have their core audience at this point, which may fluctuate slightly, but will always pretty much stay in the same parameters. And 90% of the audience are smarks. However, there are varying levels to it. There's the subsection that's mainly ex-WWE fans or fans of both companies (likely the overwhelming majority), and then there's the full-on hardcore indie and puroreso nerds like Khan himself. And a lot of Kahn's booking feels like he's trying to prove his hardcore smark cred, like the G1 clone tourney; except it has to be watered down to a degree for the wider audience, so it loses a lot of the luster of something like the actual G1 and feels diluted.
So yeah... a lot of times it feels like Kahn is playing to the smallest sub-section of the audience, but doesn't do it particularly well, and it kinda drags the product overall down.

Is his contact still up on Jan 1st? I don't think he's going to jump, sadly. There is a lot of people that think he signed quietly in the last few months. They have completely stopped mentioning 2024. He's most likely been re-signed since the All Out return last year. There's no way they invest as much as they have in him over the last year if he might be out the door.

JC Motors is a gimmick poster But is it a gimmick if you live the gimmick? 🤔

That picture of Bonnie McKee made me go asexual. I like how he hid it between other photos thinking no one would notice. That's like not noticing a massive wart.

Angels really had to go out and murder the Rox to try to convince Ohtani to stay.

Benefits of working in a grocery store: I've gotten to try both the new Baja flavors, and more importantly, have a huge stash of regular Baja in the back.
I like the Caribbean Baja more than the Passionfruit, but I'm more impressed with both of them more than last year's Baja flavors.

"We couldn't be happier for you Ryan (even if we're a little bit jealous.)" I... uh... didn't know stalking out and clout chasing celebs is worth being jealous over. I'm 99.99% sure that he framed it as he was "accidentally" bumping into all of these celebrities, as opposed to tracking their locations and following them around until they noticed him. "Imagine meeting you here!" "Yeah, what a coincidence running into you in the bathroom of my own private home!"

GTA IV. I didn't like Niko Bellic from the off, and the story was just plain boring. I liked the bowling guy though, he seemed fun. It was one of if not the best stories in any GTA game. How dare you have a different opinion than me online. Also the best driving. And I will fight anyone to the death who says otherwise. (I'm also willing to throw the fight)

Summer Freeze definitely has a strong resemblance to Voltage. Especially noticeable in the zero sugar variety. Not overly impressed.

IIRC, the vignettes leading up to it were all very Sting-ish and led to a lot of disappointment when Jericho came out doing whatever that gimmick was.

I think he's been talking about doing Moose Jaws for a decade at this point. I'll believe it when I see it.
Totally on-board for a Tusk sequel though. Don't really know if another Jay & Bob is needed.

Mtn Dew as a whole. The only recent variation I can think of that I don't like is Major Melon, but I dislike watermelon in general. I long for Sangrita Blast to come back one day.
Also, I believe this year's VooDew is supposedly based on Sour Patch Kids.

I was so hyped for this game prior to it being announced, but everything I've seen about it has completely soured me on it. I'll keep my eye on reviews, but the early leaks have shown me that it's gonna be a real disappointment.
I like the idea behind it, but the execution of it all looks terrible.

Interesting. Would it be a big drawback for AEW if he did go back to WWE? Him staying would likely be a bigger drawback at this point. AEW were fine and steadily growing prior to his return. And that was before they had Danielson come in, too. They have insane roster depth, and main eventers out the ass. The biggest loss would probably be the merch money he generates. But compared to possibly dividing the entire locker room if he stayed, and potentially driving the founding members out... it'd be a small price to pay.

Unless you watch your team get shutout. Then it really ing sucks. We came from behind and won so I was miserable most of the game but was happy the very last second of it. Went through that with game one against St. Louis. My bunghole was puckered for the entire 9th inning.
