2019 AEW: We don’t have the McMahon stench on us, unlike the other guys! 2024 AEW: Unlike the other guys, we’ve got a McMahon!


Best_VDV_Diver

Oh, how the turn tables!


anonymous-guy1

desperation is setting in


Fidelos

If you are desperate enough why the fuck won't you just grab Goldberg? He genuinely is a better wrestler than Shane


steezlord95

Better wrestler, bigger draw


Fidelos

A McMahon in a non WWE company might be a bigger draw than Goldberg at least at first. But Goldberg's last match will definitely sell more tickets/PPVs.


Razzler1973

Cause Goldberg said he wasn't interested and the Dub 'wasn't a serious promotion'


Valanga_1138

Yep, it's not that they didn't try, it's that they couldn't get him. Honestly, I hope they get Shane cause it's already hilarious to see the basement bending over backwards to explain why it would actually be a great get and that they always loved him (but please no checky post history), now I wanna see them full blown worshipping him when he becomes "All Elite"


orange_lambda

Translation: “add a few extra zeros to the contract you mark”


PenisManNumberOne

Goldberg is scared of the power of the bucks hangman and company. Particularly terrified of Jack Perry according to my sources


TW_Yellow78

Goldberg refuses to follow the script. Or sign with AEW.


Blade-Controvesial

They tried, he wasn’t interested


orange_lambda

I disagree, the “best in the world” can start saying “me and my son Tony” at the start of every promo, and have Shad Khan’a music hit and they have a custody of Tony match. Coast to Coast the old man


threebbb

they’re gonna spin themselves into the ground explaining this one


FatMarkTechPriest

Maybe that'll solve climate change? Use their mental gymnastics as a perpetual motion machine?


OriginalMadmage

Nah, that perpetual motion machine is fueled by a shit ton of tendies. Chicken's will have to go extinct.


Shotintoawork

Shane didn't know about Vince! How can a son be expected to know what his father is doing?!?? Now his son-in-law on the other hand......

NotoriousMFT

This gif sums up AEW vs NXT very well


substandardrobot

Vince Russo has to be advising Tony. There is no way that he isn't.


Best_VDV_Diver

The real Tony ODed some time back. The current Tony is Russo in a Tony mask.


commercial-menu90

That makes sense. The real Tony probably OD when he had the short hair


Independent_Craft_14

Their ratings would be in the 1.0 atleast, every single week if he was


Jury-Illustrious

“Bro it’s wrestling bro !!”


stonecoldbobsaget

Ospreay: Oi bruv, if I don't beat Swerve at All In I'll be a son of a head shitter *Funds Are Approaching plays over the PA system, confusing and upsetting the 37 people in the audience* Shane: Oh no you won't.... that's my role *puts on sunglasses and removes them rapidly*


FunSockHaver

“funds are approaching” popped me, uce


DannyDef

…it even kinda goes with the tune.


FunSockHaver

Oh no, it does


sleepyseahorse

Me too 😂


Bobo_the_conqueror

"Here we go"


AVBforPrez

HERE COMES THE FEDERAL LEGAL TENDER


Ok-Reach-2580

No evidence that Shane or Bryan Danielson knew what was going on. Also HHH 100% knew what was going on.

Please Tony Khan please save wrestling please Tony save us partner up with Shane please https://preview.redd.it/tyvn5zxq80ad1.jpeg?width=224&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a2b690f2513ad2267dec5e2a5982771ae0222525


Defiant_Yogurt9579

Shane in the Dub would be must watch tv. I would love to see how they book him and if he would actually fit into the locker room. It’s already a toxic work environment, why not experiment with it?


AnAnt71993

I mean IF he comes to aew make him gm figure on collision where he starts of a an advisor/friend to Tony, them slowly turn him heel. Maybe he can call upon all previous wrestlers who worked for wwe and make an invasion angle with them on dynamite where he declares he's taking over aew and how stupid Tony was to trust him. Them promote it as old wwe faction vs aew originals. something along these lines. Shave can definitely be a draw if used right. This is probably the only way we can get a wwe vs aew story on tv.


leeinflowerfields

They ain't gonna do this uce, it's too interesting and might actually get people invested.


AnAnt71993

I know, I'm just a mark fed shill fantasy booker.


RobertCroupier

And they should call themselves… Main event Mafia.


BookDev0urer

![gif](giphy|3oFzm6L4mvGEMbSEP6|downsized) He's coming in to run ROH....further into obscurity.


unhallowed90

I'd fucking die laughing if somehow ROH ended up getting on the new TV deal and started doing better than AEW.


BookDev0urer

Make Shane-O-Mac the Commish and ratings will go up


Rum_Soaked_Ham

My Dub is too good for McMahons!!! 😡😡😡😡


GloriousVictor

Please let this happen to appease the jerk gods. 


HarryHaywire

If this happens, it will be the greatest thing ever.


Cautious_Month_6300

He’ll jump off the cell onto a million marshmallows with a black rug on top- AKA the metal entrance ramp 😉


hammertown87

I can see him showing up at all in He’ll be the elites version of Mr McMahon And tk will book himself to be an Austin type character


_yamasaki

we can only pray this happens and Tony give Shane real authority and influence


lanadelashtray

And JR on commentary


Luna_Soma

I hope he shows up with the Not Nice Avenue Crew


vengeancerider

Joseph Abdomen is All Elite™️!!!


CategoryCultural9205

Here arrives the currency plays. Massive pop!


JustAnotherMark604

What did Shane McMahon say to Tony Khan when he saw a half empty crowd? Where comes the money?! Where comes the money?!


theballswalls

If Shane can pull this off it could be the most elaborate jerk ever


deacon05oc

I’m sure Shane’s knees swill hold up.


madvisuals

one step closer to my manifesting of Vince to Dub


Shotintoawork

I want that more than anything just to see the galaxy brained Olympic level mental gymnastics from the people that have spent decades complaining about him. "People are complicated! They were just accusations! He tears up scripts minutes before air, what a genius! Such a perfectionist! Yelling at commentators through their headsets and always giving direction! A hands-on executive that's not afraid to get his hands dirty!"


Glennsoe

I said it for years,the ONLY thing that will get aew back over 1 million on a regular bases is Vince ON AEW TV..


chaosisarascal

Rumors have it that MJF approached him and Shane mistook him for a tween fan, calling him “sport” and “champ” before offering to sign his scarf.


JonathonWally

Hope Shane doesn’t skip quad day this time.


Razzler1973

Shane must be really be angry with Daddy and/or HHH and Steph to what anything to do with the Dub He can't even use the 'for the good of wrestling' line cause he's always been a bit on the outside That said, all that happened is he met Sasha at an airport, haha It *would* be funny though. The stunt booking for the ratings that Shane would bring Can't imagine him being around too long cause not sure Shane is a guy that will sit around and wait to be told 'the plans' but rather really get involved in shit. Tiny doesn't generally appoint wrestling people or anyone with name value that may over shadow him or lead to the boys (insider term) perhaps 'going to them' about things on the show instead of Tony. Better to be Will Washington and podcasters


Username_Maybe_Taken

I mean if TK didn't already ruin his write off angle, hiring Shane as the Buck's consultant or something similar might've actually been money.


Helnik17

Top? Who?


LeChampeon

Ftr bald


snakesbranche

Shane making the move after sabotaging the 2022 Royal Rumble and hiding in the heel entrance tunnel since then.


PhuckCalumbo

Why does it look like https://preview.redd.it/pzjuw96z11ad1.jpeg?width=739&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0ae179012d177e66b3469099ddc7a2ac9c56d846 Lmao

Glennsoe

Shane McMahon as the evil GM will put butts in the seat Imagine him being "mad" at the Balding Bucks and yelling out "If you don't listen to me,then I'm gonna have to call my Father" ! Instant million viewers the next week..


Otherwise-Attempt326

Shane fighting for power of AEW would be a good angle. Have Tony lose it. He already called Vince a Weinstein. Continue off that.


Spiritual_Bit_2692

Tony would put Jungle Jerk to go over Oldberg.


NotHisGo

A 54 year old Shane McMahon is definitely the solution to their problems.


shootstarpress

So we’re at the point where we have Stephanie sitting ringside for the last few shows in NYC and Boston with her kids. Chilling. Being a fan.  And we’ve got Shane talking about appearing on AEW. Is this the upside down lol? 


Head_Evidence4553

are they really gonna do an invasion or takeover angle with shane?


Glennsoe

Wwe vs the original aew in aew - and Russo booking is must miss tv... Shane comes in and "tries" to recrut every ex wwe signing to take over aew booked by the snowman


vinegar-pisser

🎶 ***Ching ching, bling bling, cut the chatter*** 🎶


jaundicemanatee

Shane and Uno noticed in the United States at the same time 


Jamieb1994

I wonder if there's a photo or at least any proof that Shane has been chatting to Sasha Banks. ![gif](giphy|NQhAjOY4uydr0nAqVM)


Crafty_Letterhead_12

But who was the star


Rum_Soaked_Ham

Mercedes Monè.

Most_Victory1661

Steve Austin was in the continental United States at the same time drinking a beer. Confidence ? I don’t think so.


Broncotron

The name on the contract says McMahon....


AVBforPrez

"oh hey Mercedes, how are you? Funny that we're both at the same airport, huh?" "Right Shane? That's wild, how you been?" "Good good, you know, not jumping off of tall structures, it's a nice change. How's AEW treating you?" "Pretty good, pretty good... there's nobody in the audience but I get a guaranteed $500k a month, so you know... win some lose some." "Nice, get that paper.....uhhh.....big gulps, eh? Welp, see ya later Sasha!" (SRS and Dave report that Shane is considering becoming all elite, that'll be $14.99)


funnerfunerals

Shane McMahon needs a lobotomy....


Gigglesandshits11

Just want to see this to hear all the dumbs fedshills freak out. I can smell the Cheetos and Mountain Dew from here


Rum_Soaked_Ham

What's there for fedshills to freak out about? I think it's hilarious he may show up in the Dub.
