AEW?

[Swarm]

I mentioned to Todd last week when I was doing a big card sort that I’m surprised nobody has started an AEW fed on the boards. We’ve got 90% or more of the big hitters signed. I couldn’t believe we had MJF signed (I didn’t even know I had the card).

If you do it I’ll most likely read it.

I can tell you one thing... if I was doing AEW.. the Dark Order would most definitely have a different 'Exalted One' (though so far Brodie's not doing a bad job).

I think I'd do a more league-based thing if I did anything with legends, but we'll see.

Sometimes doing the obvious thing is still the right thing to do. I’d prefer if Matt Hardy had been that guy instead of Brodie.

Not to mention the Chikara Brodie Lee card would get smoked by the vast majority of the other cards for people in AEW. Always thought that card was under powered as hell.

Yeah, I just took that card out and damn, the stats are terrible. I suspect the newer ones are better, but the Young Bucks cards I have (the original Legends of the Future one, and a color one.. both have similar stats) aren't much better.

'Damascus' as the Exalted One would be pretty neat, especially if they did a split personality thing where 'Matt Hardy' was still friends with the Elite.

I really, really, wanted it to be Christopher Daniels, though. He's kinda sad as he's being booked right now (though I'm hoping for some sort of payoff).

I purchased quite a few of the indies sets but gave up when some wrestlers began to reappear with different cards and different stats. I refuse to mix these cards.

I enjoy AEW and am an Inner Circle wannabe! And I also know who Adam Page, Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley are now. They were just names before.

Yeah the Bucks got new cards in the Celebration set which are probably going to be as good as they'll get. The original ones are weak but they were fairly low in ROH at that point.

Speaking of AEW, I know there are at least 3 AEW wrestlers who are signed to the game but they have not gotten cards yet.

1 of them almost got released in Quarter 1 as part of Promoter Prime, but he got replaced with the recently signed Gringo Loco who was more of a fit with the simultaneous release of the Best of Mexico set. And Gringo Loco has tagged often with Sam Arnold who was also in Promoter Prime Quarter 1 as another good fit with the simultaneous release of the Best of Mexico set.

Would be a fun fed even though some of the ones we have aren't probably as close as we'd need (SSB, Peter Avalon and Brodie Lee all have cards but they would be different if redone and they're not likely going to be)

In the Best of Canada set, we were hoping to do the Evil Uno and Stu Grayson versions of SSB but we were only allowed to use the classic version of Player Uno and Player Dos (I think because their signing with AEW was announced soon after the Best of Canada set was released.) But I actually like the SSB version we got (based on their 2010-2012 time when they were I think finishing up in CHIKARA and then feuding with the Young Bucks in PWG) better than Evil Uno and Stu Grayson.

I love the SSB and am glad that's the cards we have. Evil Uno and Stu Grayson seem to get much more mixed reviews. Brodie is the real shame. His card is both out of date and as others have said probably too weak since it was the first real run at trying to do indy cards that were not LOTF cards.
