MAILBAG TOPICS:

Is WarGames a good gimmick match for WWE?If Eddie Kingston or Swerve Strickland win the Continental Classic, does it elevate either of them? Or would it define the whole tournament down as a mid-carder tournament? Or is it just too hard to tell until it plays out?How does the Full Gear story with MJF, Adam Cole, and Jay White make any sense? Is AEW looking more and more like a promotion doomed to fail?Did AEW fail to capitalize on Swerve's win over Hangman Page?Would AEW have been better off if the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega weren't every part of AEW? Is it time for Omega to step back with the pain he's in?How did the Young Bucks manage to keep their EVP titles after instigating a confrontation backstage that led to a brawl?Why was AEW vilified for the angle substituting Adam Cole (temporarily) for MJF at Full Gear while WWE got a pass for the tease of Randy Orton not showing up for WarGames?Is the ring style Wade advocated for on the PPV Roundtable after Full Gear superior or would matches look too similar to each other like in WWE?
