What match do you want to see at WrestleMania next year?
Sami Zayn in a world title match after winning the Royal Rumble is a big one I would like. Also Bron Breakker vs. Seth Rollins, possibly for a World Title as well. I think it's time for WWE to establish new, younger top guys and Bron Breakker should be a big part of that. WWE has no men's world champions on the main roster who have ever been born after 1990. Age means less and less than ever in wrestling, but I think you need to establish some of your big stars for the next ten years.
What do you want to see in Unreal season 2?
Just more truth, honestly. I thought this season did a really good job of being transparent and I learned a lot from it. I think season 2 will be the "look how much smarter we are than everyone." Then season 3 I think will be will be more stuff that they integrate works into. I approached season one with some skepticism, but I really thought they did a good job.
what's up with the GYV? they came into aew with a lot of hype did fuck all, won the strong tag belts for a brief time, and never really seemed to be utilized to their full potential.
I think they just have to find their thing that connects them with the crowd. I think that's the biggest thing. They're fantastic in the ring, but as presented, they haven't directly connected with the "grit your teeth" line. I know that is something that AEW is hoping will improve.

I thought their promos were forced in NXT too tbh (before being in the spooky group with Gacy and Ava, that was just bad).

As a WRESTLING fan who wasn't familiar with GYV, I found the grit your teeth line to feel very forced, kind of like Shane Taylor's rumble bad man rumble. They just seem like two guys putting on tough faces. Not necessarily their fault, maybe just that's how they've been presented or lack thereof without anything that I saw set themselves apart from other tag teams. Again, all I've seen of them has been in AEW.

Give Gibbo the mic, he'll get heat. Don't know why AEW haven't tapped into that.
