Jason’s Take

Moxley doesn’t appear to have an exclusive booking with AEW, at least not yet. That may change once weekly television starts.

First Feud Of Moxley Revealed ?

Speaking of Moxley, many fans are discussing who he will square off against with first in AEW. We know that Jericho will take on Hangman Page to determine the first AEW World Champion, so that leaves Kenny Omega as a possibility. Another possibility, is the Bad Boy, Joey Janela. In the latest edition of Being The Elite, a possible feud with Janela was teased.

Jason’s Take

This is the perfect feud for both Ambrose and Janela. Janela has the potential to be a big star for AEW, and is just as crazy, if not more crazy, than Moxley.

Road Dogg’s New Role In WWE

Last month, Road Dogg stepped away from the lead co-writer position of SmackDown Live. While he was not released from the company, it has been speculated what his role would be moving forward. It appears that Road Dogg will be working in the Performance Center. Many gave pointed out that he was seen in the Performance Center Combine that aired on the WWE Network.

Jason’s Take

This should be a perfect role for Road Dogg. Being a former in ring competitor, and working behind the scenes in both Impact and WWE, he has a lot to offer in a training/talent development role.

Arn Anderson On Exiting WWE

Another backstage talent who is no longer with WWE, Arn Anderson, spoke for the first time since being let go from the company. Speaking at the Starrcast II event this past Friday, Anderson said he had signed a non disclosure agreement with the company. Anderson did say that “I don’t want to be anywhere where I’m not wanted,” he explained. “Because after 37 years I think I deserve that.”

Jason’s Take

There has been much speculation as to why Anderson was let go from the company, including the reported rumors of Anderson letting an intoxicated Alicia Fox wrestler. Regardless, Anderson is another former in ring talent that has a lot to offer in a backstage role. Don’t be surprised if he ends up backstage in AEW.
