I have no idea why, but from the little I was watching of AEW back in 2022, I remember The Butcher and The Blade.
Now, it may have been because of their manager, The Bunny, but I think it is really because their names annoyed the heck out of me. Why do they each need a "the" name? I guess it stood out for better or worse, but definitely bugs me. They were fine as a tag team, but nothing too high on the card - solid hands.
Can't believe it's been 4 years, but there it is. AEW has been a great option for a number of guys getting a longer lease in their career after WWE with still having good national audience reach.
There may be a fan "battle" of being WWE or AEW but I am sure the wrestlers love having more options and seeing their friends succeed in either promotion.


Just looked up Riho. Looks like I have another Japanese wrestler I can collect :D
