When they turned Perry heel, I had the sneaking suspicion he’d be done with wrestling in a few years. He didn’t have the chops to pull it off, but his “friends” still threw him to the wolves by encouraging the heel turn. There’s a lot of sabotage over there. I kind of figured Perry would end up leaving the business bitter, complaining that everyone is an asshole because he can’t pick his friends. We’ll see if that happens.
But yeah, I think he’s gone again. No one really seems to miss him. He isn’t very good. The whole “Scapegoat” thing was weird, because it didn’t really make sense as a gimmick. But he was gone for a long time before that because apparently he was fighting with Tony, but then Tony brought him back. But why exile him in the first place? AEW is just a giant mess lol.
Maybe TK just gave in to pressure from The Bucks? Now he’s just getting paid to sit at home and is probably cool with that, but it doesn’t give the appearance that you back your talent.
It’s crazy that they even tried to make him a big star in the wake of it. He looked like the silliest little bitch coming out of it. Then they were like “he’s going to be a bad ass on our TV.” Lol wut?
If he ever got a shot in WWE (and I don’t know why he would be brought in), I see him as a white meat babyface in a tag team (like he should have been) or as a lackey heel carrying Drew McIntyre’s bags or something.
