Imo The Elite had a lot of loses to important matches early on.
I watch AEW every Wednesday, and PPV (not like Raw or Smackdown where i'm not that focused on it)
I think they need better storytelling, and better booking. Simple as that. I think they have the talent, but they have to improve on making us care for them. Sometimes i feel like all they focus on is match, after match. Spot, after spot. Storytelling, and promos take a backseat. With everything currently going on in the world. I'll give them a pass. But they were doing this before the pandemic.
One thing i loved about the attitude era is they'd for example have Stone Cold start off Raw with a promo. We would still see, and hear from Austin throughout the night. At least again for the main event or something. Shyt back then was always developing live.
Darby should be TNT champion. Definitely not Cody.
I think Cody (and maybe the rest of The Elite) should be a heel, or at the very least a tweener. I feel like Cody, and Omega could be heels, while Hangman, and Young Bucks are faces, and all of them still remain a team.
Luchasaurus should be competing for the AEW title. Not win it, but at least competing for it. He can still do tag matches with his boys and do his own thing to (Rey fenix is in the same boat). I feel like they don't do that in wrestling enough. If ever.
Stop giving camera time to Colt Cabana, QT Marshall, Brandon Cutler, Luther, Nakazawa, Blade & Butcher etc.
Push that Ricky Starks nikka he has potential
MJF and Wardlow should be tag champs
I think fans could get behind a face Lance Archer. They put him in the title picture too fast.
Omega should be a heel, and feud with a face Hangman.
They could do the obvious AEW vs The Elite
Most of their titles look trash. They gotta do better designs.
One of their biggest problems is their Women's division. It's like they don't mesh well with each other in the ring sometimes. Their attire be looking cheap af, and their gimmicks be trash, or non existent. WWE kills them when it comes to these things. I mean it's not even close. There's legit only like a handful of women in AEW that has a decent gimmick, promo skills, and in ring skills.
That's just some of their problems, and thing they can improve, or should be doing imo. I got a lot more that can improve the show, but i already wrote so much
