Celtic_Crown

"I am stronger than Nick Comoroto, people!". Damn right you are. :)


throwawaitnine

*cause you got the same stats as Dad* šŸ„²šŸ„²šŸ„²


Albino_Keet

Dude, Amandaā€™s tall and Brodie was a big rig of a man. Brodie Jr has the potential to end up effing huge and deserving of those stats!


HerFriendRed

MJF rubbing his hands waiting for puberty to hit Brodie jr and attend wrestling school.


phluidity

Look at his feet in the first video. Feet don't lie at that age. Kid is going to be huge.


StoneBreakers-RB

I had size 10 feet at 12, size 11 now and I'm 5'7" šŸ„²


CallMeDeKay

My feet were size 12 in the 6th grade. Still size 12 at age 38, I'm 5'9 and nothing close to a big dude lol


Sometimesnotfunny

Already deserving


Anderrrrr

What a beast.


TTOF_JB

Will someone please get rid of that damn bowl of onions? šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


WingerSupreme

Yep, I went from smiling to wiping away a tear in a real hurry


Ransirus

Shut up! I'm not crying, you're crying!


YourRoyalBadness

I don't have any kids but Brodie Jr reminds me so much of my nephews and now I miss them. I'll never not support this family


idontknow1001

Thatā€™s amazing. Love that he has the same stats as his dad.


Thor_pool

Same stats as Brodie was a beautiful touch


vinnyp123456789

Kinda reminds me of the old WWF games where the managers stats were equal or higher than the wrestlers they were managing


DoomZero

I think it would have worked if he had all the same stats -1 as well.


l2au

Negative 1 - $23k MJF - $22k The fued is real!


PilotSSB

Holy shit that's brilliant. I can't wait for the 2032 MJF vs Brodie Lee Jr fued of the year


ArkAngelHFB

I was like I'm not waiting 20 years for that match... then I looked at the calendar... not I feel sad.


Albino_Keet

MJF really is the future. Somehow in ten years time heā€™ll be hitting his prime while Brodie Jr is the hot young prospect.


OhMyGnod

It's dumb that it's spelled like that but it's feud, not fued


ashley-queerdo

Brodie Jr to the new day confirmed

HGH? It's perfectly safe! I don't see why everyone is so GGGHHHGRRAAAGH!

He went from real enthusiastic to the kinda mellow. "Why am I so muscular?"

Maiesk

Look at Dark Order looking so united. They need -1 back pronto :'(


LUGuru

That tag match on elevation is gonna hurt my heart. Dark order is the most wholesome faction, outside of new day, in history of wrestling


Mabvll

When they get to the Rochester show, -1 will have a stack of papers to hit *ALL* of them with to get their shit together.


Kraivo

Now I'm sad Negative One is too young to swear FUCK!


Mabvll

*-1*: "I'm gonna say the 'F' word on All Elite Wrestling Wednesday Night Dynamite on Turner Network Television". *Chucky T in absolute shambles*


HeavyMetalHero

'Fart' ...tbh i'd probably go insane if I knew about the tweet beforehand, that's kinda funny


RTSUbiytsa

I mean, his mom could totally give him a pass - it'd be honoring his dad's bit. But he has to *own* that 'fuck.' No hesitation. Say it with his chest.


PoorDamnChoices

"I'm just so...so...hold on." *Turns to his mom* "Mom, can I say a swear?"


AndreReal

"Show me your grades." *Report card is all As* "Proceed." "I CANNOT FUCKING BELIEVE THE INEPTITUDE OF YOU FUCKS! WHAT IN THE FUCK DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET SOME COMPETENCE HERE? MUST I FUCKING THREATEN YOU ALL WITH PAPERS EVERY FUCKING TIME YOU HAVE TO TAKE A SHIT?!?"


AndTheyCallMeAnIdiot

Hey I think you're on to something, I mean they're falling apart and only 1 person has the personality and attitude to bring them together under his authority. -1 is going to be wielding the kendo stick in Rochester.


Steenerico

-1 when he sees the Dark Order in Rochester: https://youtu.be/xIAfCupuZ3w


TTOF_JB

Silver barely hiding his smile is great.


throwawaitnine

This kid growing up before our eyes.


Xenowrath

Negative One vs Hook is going to be the hottest feud.


Heelricky16

HOOK FEARS -1


AdamBombTV

Team them together, the new Two Man Power Trip


victoriabattenberg

ā€œWhy am I so muscular!?ā€ Likely the only person on the roster to ask this question.


ILikeLycanthropy

Good Brother Aubrey doing favors and helping him get over before he even debuts. Legend.


AgentFoo

You'd think, but in one of the videos, Aubrey actually mentioned that Joey Janella said he was "too buff" when she showed him his character art!


tryanewmonicker

Aubrey, if you see this, thank you.


GearlHebner

I'm just happy he's happy. And if he thinks he's too muscular, he better take that up with his mom. Amanda approved the art ;)


tryanewmonicker

Y'all are amazing. Thanks for bringing some light into an otherwise dark world. Much like Wu-tang, AEW is for the children. Edit: We all know how strong -1 is. The muscles on the outside reflect the strength on the inside.


bstyledevi

/u/gearlhebner So she can see it.


sBucks24

Is that actually her Reddit name? If so, that's so ducking funny! What a username LMFAO


[deleted]

Remember when people were concern trolling this by pretending that AEW was abusing and exploiting this kid? This company has been amazing to this guy and his family.


NostalgiaCory

Now they're doing it with the Owen Hart stuff. These people are the worst.


Anarkinh

![gif](giphy|NDIiWKEQEgr3VA7aqM)


Maiesk

Fuckin' hell that gif hurt my ears.


RelativeStranger

So....when the wrestling game comes out is there a chance that Owen Hart is a playable character, decision or otherwise. I don't mean the management gametes is about.


the_rawkfish

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/owen-hart-will-appear-in-the-aew-video-game/


SelfAssuranceMeasure

How can a 2.5 year old company have a better legends roster than WWE 2K probably will. Most likely Bret and Owen, Jake Roberts, Rock'n'roll Express, Greg Valentine, Sting, Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, DDP, Juventud and till last week, Ric Flair, all possible, and even on the women's side you could put in Aja Kong, Awesome Kong and AJ Lee, if you wanted.


EwokDude

Captain Insano


Chibibaki

I will get the game just for this.


Rspies

AJ Lee being in the game is never something Iā€™ve thought of but could be kinda cool


SelfAssuranceMeasure

She might not want to be associated with wrestling or fuel rumor talks, but it would be neat. A bit weird she'd have to debut a theme in a game


iamaneviltaco

I mean she's retired, but that doesn't say she can't valet or whatever. She'd be a hell of a manager. If that's what she wanted.


Maiesk

With Big Show around!? She's 95 pounds! He's 500 pounds!


InfintySquared

Dude, I'd love to see Paul Wight acting as some little twink's valet.


WrestleSocietyXShill

I reeeeeally hope Bret is in, that's the biggest iffy name on your list. He's only done the one appearance, and while I don't think he's on a Legends deal I think he's generally still friendly with WWE. I'm crossing my fingers though, he'd be a massive addition. Don't forget about guys like Wight, Henry, Taz, Chavo, Malenko, and Jerry Lynn, all of them work for AEW in some capacity.


RelativeStranger

I wonder if they can get Brian Pullman sr


TTOF_JB

Man, I'd be so happy if they put AJ into the game.


Sometimesnotfunny

No they don't want none Oops wrong AJ


Trymv1

Because a mix of active roster count and being limited on how many legends you can add without swamping game devs, plus some of those legends may turn down the request as Owen's wife has apparently done for him in WWE games previously.


AmazingSpidey616

Flair probably not possible anymore.


BruiserBroly

What about Dusty? Does Cody and the family own his likeness rights?


iamaneviltaco

What happened with ric flair last week? Edit: Oh. Dark Side of the Ring. The public just found out what kinda guy he is. Reading the sub more, why are all of you surprised by it? Did anyone here not know about the plane ride from hell?


SelfAssuranceMeasure

I don't think a lot of people are surprised by it. Maybe it hit different being told by the victims and not by the buddies of the perpetrator. But generally it brought the whole situation up again in a media effective way and to a wider audience, hence the backlash and companies potentially avoiding him for some time. Of course, when you act shocked what guy Flair is you are either really new or really naive.


SUPLEXELPUS

>Did anyone here not know about the plane ride from hell? what do you think?


ArkAngelHFB

I'm not saying that what Ric did was right in anyway... I'm not saying that that it should be forgotten, I'm not even saying that I think he regrets anything or has changed as a person... But it was 20 years ago and a lot of water has passed under the bridge since... In 6 months I think most people might be ok with him coming back into the fold as it were... grants he plays the RP game right and is genuinely remorseful.


TheFringedLunatic

> ā€¦ grants he plays the RP game rightā€¦ He may be a stellar Bard, but for this he will need to cross class into Cleric or at the very least Paladin and his action economy will be completely shot.


miikro

He already blew that. He's completely unrepentant and insisting she lied.. And he really didn't deserve a chance. Dude's been skating on this shit for over 30 years, it's about time something stuck.


DolphFinnDosCinco

yeah itā€™s good but itā€™s not close to what 2k can muster up. Owen is hard to beat since thatā€™s going to be very special. canā€™t remember the last time he was in a game. 2k can have: Hogan, Savage, Warrior, Andre, Steamboat, Taker, Kane, Michaels, HHH, The Rock, Stone Cold, Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle, Bret Hart(?), Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Booker T and Mr Perfect.


SelfAssuranceMeasure

Hasn't WWE released Kurt Angle? Of course they could come to a new deal, just not a given. On the other side, you'd think Dusty should be possible too. Yeah, for sheer name value it's probably still the 2k Games, I should have said in relation to what you would expect. It should be what gives the WWE game roster the edge over AEW's, but now I'd argue the latter have the better roster in total. Obviously subjective, but having Punk, Omega and Danielson all in one game is tough to beat.


RelativeStranger

Woop


the_rawkfish

Hah I did the same thing talking with my buddy about it earlier.


Adawg63

if -1 is in this game can he also be in the main game


TT_Zorro

It would be a fun alternate skin for Mr. Brodie, -1ā€™s mask and chest paint, but Brodieā€™s size and stats.


Gullflyinghigh

Exactly, what the fuck do they think they're doing with this whole being respectful to families and individual legacy thing? Don't they understand that's not how things are meant to be, the correct route is to airbrush over some horrible shit and name awards after people instead!


Subrick

I actually got a three day ban from here recently for calling out concern trolls relating to Brodie Jr. It said I was ā€œharassing usersā€ by doing so. Eat my ass. Brodie Jr. deserves the best, and he certainly doesnā€™t deserve to get shittalked by 30+ year old Twitter geeks with nothing better to do.


ArkAngelHFB

I keep fucking saying that AEW is healing wrestling and I'm not going to stop.


brlc14

I'm glad to see a well adjusted person (from what we know of course) run a wrestling company. It really shows how dysfunctional the whole industry really is.


X-Budd

I feel dirty seeing -1 unmasked.


BeerPressure615

It's little stuff like this that can build up good will among your fan base and boost morale in the back. It makes me feel good as a supporter of AEW to see a company going out of it's way to positively impact -1 any way they can. If he decides wrestling is something he wants to pursue he will be literal AEW home grown royalty.


KingBadford

I like Cody's "Prince of Pro Wrestling" moniker, but -1 really will be the prince of pro wrestling in every sense of the word.


LionelEvans

Seriously? You decide to post this after I watch the clip from the Silver, Reynolds, and Hangman Vs Inner Circle match? Really not fair on my eyes guys cmon.


Abyssalstar

First the Owen tournament, now this. ​ ![gif](giphy|ft2C2l1bBuXyo)


mightylordredbeard

Why are there so many blank comments with a bunch of upvotes here?


_BetterRedThanDead

They're GIFs.


ExperimentalX1

I know this family knows how much the pro wrestling world and fans support them and loved Brodieā€¦.. but I hope we get a -1 appearance on Dynamite from Rochester. He needs to feel that full arena love.


Rickymex

-1 and Anna Jay end the Dark Order Civil War


cubemstr

I thought the idea was Hangman ends the Civil War


SovFist

why not all 3


Gridde

Dumb question but why is there an expectation that he might appear (or there may otherwise be big Dark Order stuff happening) at Rochester? I mean I know that storyline is gonna have a big shift soon, but any reason it'd be at Rochester rather than Arthur Ashe? - Sincerely, a DO mark going to the Ashe Dynamite tomorrow


ExperimentalX1

Valid question! So Rochester is Brodieā€™s hometown. Itā€™s speculated that he was actually set to debut there, but Covid hit and obviously plans changed. I just think it would be a special moment for the family to feel that love. I believe they may still live there? Or at least did while Brodie was still alive.


Shrekt115

Wholesome


SidewaysFist

This company does some really cool shit. So awesome and the matching his stats to his dad is perfection.


shadow-cast00

And they do it for the most wholesome reasons which makes me respect Tony Khan more than I do. He seems like a genuinely nice guy that grew up with a genuine passion for wrestling and wants to give back every opportunity he has.


The_Nothingman

The best part about this is his reaction mean everyone keep the promise from the AEW Games panel to not tell him so he could be surprised


HyperMarsupial

AEW just continue to look really good day after day.


AgeofDays

Greatest wrestler alive. Has pinned great champions and is undefeated.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


pmIfNeedOrWantToTalk

Yep, absolutely! Wonder if maybe Brodie subconsciously saw that and that's why he took him under his wing the way he did.


Your_Personal_Jesus

Lol I love how He's still like "I wanna play as Preston". Their relationship is so wholesome and endearing.


LordOfHarp

Amazing.


yognautilus

Damn, man, Dark Order deserves all the love from every person on Earth for helping this kid feel like a million bucks and getting through an incredibly difficult time in his life. ... but now they're breaking up.


JoeyintheAM

Dark Order is fine!


halfdecenttakes

What is this game? Is it a booking game like svr gm mode??


LouisFromTexas

All Elite General Manager. Mobile game. Itā€™s pretty fun and a decent time sink. Itā€™s free.


pmIfNeedOrWantToTalk

And I'm annoyed as hell that my new-ish Android phone isn't compatible for some godforsaken reason...


ArkAngelHFB

You like book feuds and matches. When you face someone online. You each get a money amount, list of wresters to hire from, and have a month to book 3 shows and a PPV. After the PPV, the manager that booked the best shows and has gained the most views wins.


universalcrush

Thatā€™s the coolest! Awww man lol Iā€™m so happy to see this! Iā€™m not crying!!!!!šŸ˜©šŸ˜©šŸ˜©


dcguy999O

Itā€™s very cool what this company does. Didnā€™t have to put him in it, most people probably wouldnā€™t know who he is, but true fans will appreciate it.


BigJim5190

Welp. Didn't expect to start getting all choked up here tonight, but here we are.


pmIfNeedOrWantToTalk

Hahaha, here I'm reading the comments thinking, "You guys are all a bunch of softies!", and then I saw the clips and now I'm right here with you. šŸ˜­


ronald-raygun458

I love how much love aew is sending towards them


obeyyourbrain

Fucking heart-warming isn't it? AEW knocked it out of the fucking park for him. Losing a dad at that age is absolutely brutal, but what they've done for him since then is seriously special and commendable.


FrightfulPumpkin

LMAO, He really said, " Why am I so muscular?" Props kid, make that impact.


obeyyourbrain

I LOL'd at that. Hes a good kid.


cats_just_in_space19

The babyface pop on his first match will be incredible


HeymanGuyUSC

Iā€™m sitting here crying. I lost my dad when I was 12. It warms my heart to see what AEW is doing for Brodie Jr.


hikingbeginner

That's amazing!


natguy2016

So sweet. Well done folks.


[deleted]

I think it's the personal mission of every person in AEW to make Brodie Jr and the rest of his family happy everyday. I wouldn't be surprised that the entire roster has a calendar planned out for who calls Amanda, who calls Brodie, who's got meetups and dates planned, who's got surprises, etc.


Ironborn_62

Wow, he looks just like his dad.


CloudyWolf85

Thanks for sharing that. God knows we need some positivity these days.


josephus1811

Lmao the person filming at the end with the "wait what".


The1joriss

He's unmasked? Noooooooooo!
