1. Not Sure How To Feel About This

Jack Perry's future as a character remains fairly unclear, but Tony Khan might be left with no choice but to turn him full-blown villain sooner rather than later. Fans in attendance for the Rampage taping booed him heavily during that main event against Douki, which is actually rather worrying.

Douki won't be around once this Forbidden Door stuff calms down, whereas Jungle Boy will be on programming every single week. So, it's hardly great that AEW's core fanbase rejected him in favour of somebody they barely even know.

Yikes.

There's a strange disconnect going on with JB generally - people still sing his theme tune before and after matches, but sprinkled boos turned into visceral blasts of hate on Rampage. Over to you, Tony. You've certainly got a big decision to make here.
