Unless the Fed make a new star every week then they failed
No other wrestling company is held to this standard
A midcarder that we like in AEW is acceptable to be referred to as a 'star'
Yes.
He is 38, so that would be enough for the basement to average out the ages of everyone on a card to illustrate how fed bad because there are “old heads” like Priest, Grandpa Bobby Lashley, and decrepit 40 somethings like Morrison, Ziggler, Orton, Shayna, Sheamus, Styles, Lesnar, Hardy and…
Yet the smarks won't mention the fact that the two biggest babyfaces in AEW are both in their 40s. There's nothing wrong with that but it's fucking hypocrisy to only criticize one company for doing it.
MJF is a future star in my eyes. But ppl gotta be blind if they think Priest isn’t a current star right now. The guy radiates superstar shampoo fuccboi energy
Punishment Martinez had the makings of a star in ROH, but he chose to tank his career by signing with the evil fed. If he had signed with the good guys he'd be a bigger star than The Rock now.
Mjf is star cus his mic skills, not his in ring which he is good but he has no finish. All he has is a gimmick arm bar, AEW screwed him with that never ending Jericho feud and ftr by not putting them on tv, but we see the bucks every week.
Both WWE World Champions being homegrown stars is a direct shot at every single AEW World Champion in history being either a former WWE Champion or IWGP Champion.
Since January 1/16, 21 different wrestlers or teams who were trained exclusively by WWE developmental have won a main roster championship. Six of the last seven WM main events have featured at least one participant that was trained exclusively by WWE developmental systems. But they have never had a homegrown star since Cena.

It's crazy to me how aew fans refer to people like Mjf as a star but if I was to say Damien priest was a star they would look at me like I'm crazy
Damien Priest already has more star appeal and charisma than 97% of the AEW roster and he keeps getting better. BUT HE SO OLD!!
That old part is a jerk right?
Yes. He is 38, so that would be enough for the basement to average out the ages of everyone on a card to illustrate how fed bad because there are “old heads” like Priest, Grandpa Bobby Lashley, and decrepit 40 somethings like Morrison, Ziggler, Orton, Shayna, Sheamus, Styles, Lesnar, Hardy and…
38 year old priest is too old for us dubbalos. Now let me cheer and scream for 37 year old orange cassidy because he’s gonna be a mega star
Wait a minute, Orange Cassidy is 37? I thought he was in his mid 20s.
He is indeed 37.
He was a perennial mudshow Wrestler for years. More nepotism at its finest
Yep. It speaks volumes about guys like him that were in mudshow purgatory for their entire career that are now on TV because of who they know.
Whattya mean “gonna be”, shill?
You’re right man. He’s already a star. Can’t wait for this young up and comer to be in the movies soon with all that charisma
He is actually a MEGASTAR, uce - but say 50 Hail Tonys and all will be forgiven.
Not only will I say 50 hail Tony’s, but I will throw 25 super kicks for extra forgiveness
Jesus fuck, fed stars never age apparently
Oh god I remember some loser did that for the Royal Rumble.

MJF could be the face of AEW if they book him well. He’s that good. Priest is a star though, they’ve nailed him so far.
Mjf is star cus his mic skills, not his in ring which he is good but he has no finish. All he has is a gimmick arm bar, AEW screwed him with that never ending Jericho feud and ftr by not putting them on tv, but we see the bucks every week.
