Way more of a shock. I think everyone and their dog expected it to be Lee because the rest of the options were all let go like months ago. Jeff would have been the only other possible option but I'm sure he has a longer non-compete.

Yea. I can't wait for Kenny to come back and see how this all shakes out.

Count me in the camp of I don't care how old they are, I'll always mark for the Hardy boyz.

The Hardy Boyz are the reason I continued watching wrestling in the early 2000s even after the attitude era and then I lost interest. And got back when they came back.

Yea, followed them everywhere they went.
I remember when Jeff went to TNA and how shocked I was to see him. Everywhere they've been they have done well

Revolution might be AEW's best PPV card top to bottom. I also believe the ROH purchase has to be leading to a streaming deal.

Exciting times.

Curious how they protect Austin's legacy with this match. Tarnishing it is possible.

It won’t be a match. It’ll be a confrontation. Austin has had many of those over the years. If anything it’ll be like the rock vs rowan when he tore though the Wyatt’s. And like when Austin foley and Michaels beat up the new day a few manias ago.

I don’t care if it’s 2 minutes or 20 minutes anything involving Austin I will watch. I can’t wait.

That match kicked ass.

So what's up with Cody? Done with AEW? One time thing for Vince? Is he still an owner of AEW? I heard rumblings it was happening but I didn't put much thought into it.

He's done with AEW.

It was not a one-time thing for Vince, he's has signed a new full-time contract with WWE.

He was never an owner of AEW. He was an "Executive Vice President" which was really more of a ceremonial title than anything else.

Yes it did. I couldn’t tell if Austin was getting emotional or he didn’t really feel like doing the match at first but it was great. He got a lot of promotion for his beer which I’m sure was a main reason he did this.

Ohhhhhhhhhh I thought he and the Elite were all partners in AEW

Wonder if they will push him as the top heel for the company? Would like to see him get a world title for his family name. Would be sweet.

I did see he's going to be executive producer for the Dusty Rhodes A&E documentary.

I think they'll push him more, and I think he works better in WWE than AEW. If they book him as that same...garbage character that was booked in AEW in the end, then I'm good with him being nothing more than a midcard act.

I'm still laughing thinking of that botch stunner to Vince, and Stone Cold is still laughing somewhere too, you'd think Vince would never forget how to sell a stunner.

I think Vince was just doing his old buddy Donald Trump a favor, because now Trump no longer holds the award for worst stunner sell.
