This is how you debut a main eventer coming in from another company. A big flashy entrance after some anticipation so even the fans who don't recognise them can instantly tell that they're a big deal. Not have them trot out in their street clothes with zero pomp

Alexander Reed
Benjamin Robinson
Didn't you hear Excalibur exclaim "OH MY GOD" and Jim Ross point out that his name is Okada?
Owen Price
You couldn't find a higher-resolution image to start your shitty console wars thread with?
William Hughes
Ya seethe?
Nathaniel Gomez
No pomp?
Adam Scott
>Not have them trot out in their street clothes with zero pomp
that is the shit that gets me kek'ing
aew is clueless about presentation or maybe more accurately, nuJapan doesn't know how to build anticipation
but what you don't do is stumble out like some geek off the street
Cameron Turner
By putting him into a 3 PPV long, boring ass feud with an midcarder on a losing streak.
Wyatt Richardson
codester, the codeman, the american nightmare, love the bleached blonde bleacher of brandi rhodes, love his dog pharoah, love the whole brand, to include brandi.
Asher Anderson
Actually the best way to debut someone is to have them come out in their street clothes and then instead of letting the moment sink in, immediately cut to a backstage women's promo
Bentley Jackson
...
Owen Richardson
cody is so cool
Thomas Taylor
Nooo you debut him on a throwaway Dynamite with Adam Cole and Jay White
Kevin Flores
I agree, but having the lghts go out is right up there
Alexander Taylor
Tyler Jenkins
>main eventer
Cody wasn't a main eventer in AEW.
James Cox
Except the times he did main event... And they drew huge ratings.
David Martin
That says more about Tony's low IQ. It's undeniable that Cody had alot of buzz when he debuted and before he got injured.
Austin Ward
Unironically yes, AEW only copy the bad things wwe does tho
Liam Taylor
This. I fucking love Okada, but this "debut" was just embarrassing. It looks like a complete joke even compared to something like Nakamura's NXT debut.
Never giving the tranny fed a shot again.
John Reyes
And that was enough for you? A real promoter wouldn't have Okada debut in fucking Milwaukee on a random Wednesday you fucking mark.
William Howard
It is so disappointing. Have read aewtists say what an epic monumental moment it will be when the coin drops. And then it happens in the worst possible way and is not special at all. Why does this company this have to be this way? It's frustrating.
