What in the ever loving fuck is this thing?

I watched a bit of AEW recently since I'm sick of all the current WWE main event lines that aren't Gables'.
God help me, I'm actually enjoying it. Like ok, everyone still looks like a CAW, the Bucks are still annoying and there was this really dumb preplanned spot between FTR and a couple of other dudes where they dodge out of a double lariat which lead to friendly fire, but they botched the timing so FTR had to physically shove someone out of the way so that he can lariat his teammate, but I liked some of the wrestling(I really like it when it feels like they're physically brawling more than going through preplanned spot) and I like the promo between Swerve, Hangman and Osprey.
It's a breath of fresh air, is all I'm saying.
 
The wrestler who barely appeared with the company is upset that their contract isn't being renewed

I imagine Danhausen is going to be gone as well.

Abadon had an interesting look and played the character well but she was the drizzling shits in the ring and never improved in the 5 years she was with the company. Only had 7 televised matches.

Once the other newbie girls started improving and they signed people there was no slot to fit her in any more.
 
I think being signed to a six figure contract and not being used and thus not being in danger of being dropped on your head would be pretty sweet.

Agreed. Great look/character that fit her body type but was just awful in the ring and when the company is mostly about work rate, that shit won't fly.
 
Pretty sure she was on a by appearance deal like all the other rookies out of Dustins school.
Well that's less good then. I didn't realize she was a rookie, I thought she was an established indie wrestler. I don't really know indie wrestlers so I assume that almost anyone showing up on AEW is an indie wrestler

She was from the first graduating class of Dustins wrestling school and had a few decent matches on dark during the pandemic.

Idk if she just hit the usual supernatural gimmick pitfall or just didn't want to commit to the full time road schedule for ROH tapings.
