What are some random forgotten storylines you remember?

>Hobbs starts preaching about the "book of Hobbs", metaphorically, as in to say he's spreading wisdom from his own life
>Literally starts carrying an actual book titled "the book of Hobbs"
>This goes nowhere
>>
>>16296525
The devil.
>>
It went to Hobbs becoming TNT Champion

>>16296534
>forgotten when it's actively being told now
>>
Spike Dudley turning heel to win the Cruiserweight championship. I don't remember the details though.
>>
>>16296525
Why is Tony so horrible at sustaining storylines, hes become almost comically bad at aborted stories and gimmicks
>>
>>16296525
AEW is filled with nonsensical, half baked ideas like this from the mind of a pajeet manchild that he forgets about a week later
>>
>>16296543
>group of heels attacking everyone
>suddenly they’re good guys because the head honcho thinks the guy he betrayed is the bad guy
>>
>>16296554
Suddenly? Your 2 incidents were nearly a year apart.
>>
>>16296567
We do not care.
>>
>>16296525
Orlando Jordan is immune to the Crossface after his Summerslam embarrassment by Benoit and went through an arc to perfect his ability to avoid the submission. He then lost a rematch to the sharpshooter after Benoit couldn’t keep a crossface on Jordan no matter what he tried.
I don’t know why I still remember this random ass thrown away booking decades later but I remember that fact every so often.

Did they ever continue that in TNA for him or nah?
>>
>>16296525
Lmao this is some Vince McMahon tier shit

>"He's talking about a book? How about we give him an actual book, pal? That's good shit!"
>>
>>16296525
They should’ve kept going and made him a Reverend D-von/Deacon Batista fusion.
>>
>>16296580
You obviously did or you wouldn't have spent the last few weeks seething over it.
>>
>>16296525
The Swerve vs Keith Lee feud is still unresolved. At one point Tony did an interview about it where he referenced an unresolved storyline from The Sopranos to compare it to.
>>
>>16296615
It was finally gonna have its blowoff @ Worlds End then Keith wasn't cleared
>>
>>16296628
Why did Tony book a match with a guy that wasn't medically cleared? Not a real company.
>>
axiom and scrypts tag team

>elevated liver enzymes
>>
>>16296645
This happened after the match was booked, they didn't book an injured guy into the match to then realize he wasn't cleared because apparently no one cared to ask him
>>
>>16296653
>nnnooooo that doesn't count!
>>
>>16296673
Yeah, a completely different situation doesn't count. Are you retarded by any chance or did you never learn critical thinking?
>>
>>16296679
>match is booked
>later revealed one participant is not cleared to wrestle

Literally what is the difference? You totally dodged the elevated liver enzymes mention btw.
>>
>>16296690
He was cleared when the match was booked, unlike Keith Lee that was still injured. Again, are you retarded by any chance?
>>
>>16296645
I still wonder how this match would've turned out. Would it have been a prelude to what we got with The Fiend?
>>
>>16296697
Keith wrestled literally a week before Worlds End. You're melting down over your hypigcrisy getting exposed.
>>
>>16296543
>It went to Hobbs becoming TNT Champion
they couldve explained that instead of just dropping the gimmick and becoming strong scary black guy again
>>
>>16296615
>>16296628
>>16296690
>>16296707
didnt they do swerve vs goldust instead and then swerve injured him before the match but it still got cleared somehow which made no fucking sense
>>
>>16296717
AEWtists don't understand storylines, given AEW doesn't book them, so to them a guy carrying a book for a few weeks, dropping the gimmick then winning a title for another week is a storyline
>>
>>16296525
I don't know, bros.
I kinda enjoy this level of incoherent stories where suddenly everything changes and the arcs never have never a good ending to conclude.
I know is bad booking but when years pass and they mentioned the story again I always pop for the nostalgia.
>Tucker betrayed Otis
>Max Dupri leave MMM
>Bogs and Nakamura adventure in a jeep for America
>Elias and his brother Ezequiel
>Giga Niganinja saga between Street Profit vs Viking Raiders
>Kane mental breakdown split personality to Corporate Kane
>Sami conspiracy documentary
>>
>>16296738
i am an AEW fan, i just dont understand why our intelligence is being insulted, although maybe my fellow fans are actually a cult who will accept anything, idk though i think all the fans leaving are smarter than TK is giving them credit for
>>
>>16296769
To your credit, there's really only one major AEWtist schizo on this board that has to defend every bit of bad booking in AEW, including clearly dropped gimmicks like this. Might also just be a troll
>>
>>16296778
>one major AEWtist schizo
yeah maybe, feels like a lot though, whenever i criticize AEW I get called an e-drone so i have to criticize WWE then i get called a tranny, maybe TK is making bots post pro-AEW sentiment like he accused WWE of doing
>>
>>16296550
He was the real leader of the dudleys the whole time even when they were beating the crap out of him
>>
>>16296525
The whole Tiny Klown got beat up by Jack Perry and The Bucks and it just completely fizzled out after Tiny wore a neck brace on the NFL draft.

This pic makes me laugh every time I look at it kek

so correct me if I’m wrong but the story here was a bunch of directionless heels and Stokely Hathaway help MJF win the brass ring ladder match, right? The next Dynamite they announce they are “The Firm”

Then for seemingly no reason The Firm beats up MJF. Two weeks later MJF wins the AEW championship after Regal turns on Mox for no reason.

idk what happened to them after that.
>>
>>16297077
what happened to the gunns? they were dimes
>>
>>16296590
Kek Tony is just paki Vince with his own dumbass tendencies but less self aware
>>
>>16297094
they joined jay white and juice robinson’s stable which was awesome but now idk what they do havent seen em in a while
>>
>>16296525
AEW has storylines?
>>
>>16297200
It has the beginning of storylines, like the EVP shit, but then usually gives up randomly

>Batista in the Nexus
why don’t I remember this?
>>
>>16297077
I'll give Tony credit for being willing to drop shit no one likes. He was really good for that until recently when he went back to the Undisputed Kingdom shit.
>>
>>16297210
It was always Vince's dream to have an Irish, Scottish AND Welsh champion before an English one.
