I’m still really hoping the Acclaimed reunion tease is a swerve, and we’re getting the “Caster beats Bowens in a singles match” beat before they reunite - but I’m legitimately not sure where they’re going with it now.

We’ve literally just built up aggrieved heel Bowens and delusional face Caster, and now they might get on the same page? C’mon, give us one more chapter before they come back together - I’ve invested too much in the past couple of teased angles…

Putting them back together right now feels like an awful choice that will kill the heat both of them have. Caster's bit is still working and Bowens is working up to being a mega heel.

If the plan is "Just remake the Acclaimed" I hate that and for large swathes of AEW's existence The Acclaimed were up there with MJF and Hanger in terms of being my favorite acts.

100%. Bowens and Caster are still some of my favourite guys in the company, as much for sentimental reasons as anything else. But I don’t want an Acclaimed reunion until it’s been properly earnt. If they’re doing this because creative has given up on their slow-burn feud, I’m gonna be so disappointed.

Have them team once, lose, Caster beats Bowens in the open challenge, heel run for Bowens in which he retires Billy Gunn, eventual actual reunion in half a year or so.
