Edge said his contract isn't up until September. He'll come in for Full Gear at the earliest (if at all).
Chris Hero is one of the least interesting guys to me. I always hated his schtick on the indies especially before he dropped the shirt and pants. He seems like an interesting guy IRL (I can't shit too hard on a registered member!) but I don't see any value in old and even-more out of shape Hero taking up a major spot on a show. Give it to Umino or another NJPW guy.

Umino is Mox's son so he deserves it on that alone.
I don't want Hero in the slightest. I found him overrated even when he was at his peak, and his work in the last ten or so years has been nothing special whatsoever. But he makes perfect sense and already works there, while also no doubt being a bigger star to TK than most people. Personally I want at least one NJPW dad, specifically Nagata.

I follow Santana and Ortiz on Instagram. Notably in recent weeks, Ortiz has been posting stories with photos and clips of when those two were teaming, while a lot of Santana’s posts has been vague stuff about going alone.
I could see Ortiz’s posts being interpreted as hints of them returning together to help BCC at All In, but given the tone of Santana’s stuff, it’s entirely possible that they still aren’t on the same page and Ortiz is trying to make a peace offering.
Either way, I do hope they work out whatever issues they were having and make a comeback together at some point. They’re a good tag team that probably should have had a title reign by now, and AEW’s tag division could use the boost.

Jericho will be playing himself down to the ring live as Fozzy performs Judas at All In.

Danielson, Hayter, Pac, and now Fenix… This show is trying to give Forbidden Door 2022 a run for its money for number of wrestlers who will have to miss the show.
that's really not that many people missing given how many wrestlers are always out hurt or have to miss international shows. AEW has a gigantic roster without even tapping into all the other companies they work with. I really don't see them having a big issue here.
They can plug in anyone from Gravity, Kommander, Vikingo and a half dozen others and you won’t miss Fenix at all.
The way AEW operates they can plug in god damn Dustin Rhodes and the fan base is forgiving and patient enough they’ll accept it.
If only Chucklefuck had visa issues and couldn’t work anywhere.

When the strike is over everyone is going to be back to being best pals and acting like nothing ever happened. AEW/TK needs to suck up to him because wrestling lives and dies by their tv deals. It isn't a great look but what do you expect from someone as oblivious as tk really.

Well maybe now CM Punk will star in a crappy DCEU property.

There is no doubt in my mind that in Double J’s mind, this match is one of the top 10 if not top 5 highlights of his career.
Who else would have been as believable in portraying a crazy deranged lunatic in that company more than him, really?
Edit: it’s TK as leatherface for those who didn’t want to click on that link.
