Look how packed AEW shows used to be.

I'm not trolling, this was legit the era that got me watching regularly.



Man....the devil nonsense should have never stopped the movement. I'm not going to lie, MJF works best with a tag partner or somewhat a stable. Solo, he's mid AF.

Even when he worked with Jerikkko, the chemistry was there despite Jerikkko being a blob of flab :scust:

The problem is he went back to 4ch*n MJF like 2023 didn't happened and the heel turn was never going anywhere.

Had Cole been 100% healthy, it still would've been dumb.

I remember, while the Better Than You Bay-Bay was it's peak, ppl were hoping it was CM Punk.

MJF and Cole should've stayed together and gone after the Tag Team title against the Bucks.

Yeah the whole shock value chan shyt is wild corny. Christian gets a pass because it works with the gimmick of being a father figure. MJF is like a bi polar gimmick that's all over the place. Like how you expect me to believe that you are:

  • A royal blood
  • The devil
  • A disgruntled employee looking for a bidding war
  • A happy to be here face of the company
  • A 4th pillar
  • A movie star
  • And a "final boss"
All in the corse of a fukking year and a half :why: . MJF is the prime example of if it works just stick with it. In this case, its the buddy buddy troll rich prick shytbird heel.

was it "hate watching" when people watched the Giants and Cowboys the other day? :jbhmm: They are 2 mediocre teams, not much to praise about how their seasons have gone this year. Or should people be forced to only say positive things about Dallas and New York? :jbhmm:

the notion that someone should only consume sports/entertainment of people they stan for and nothing else is odd :manny:

maybe one of the AEW superfans on here will finally answer me when I ask why they takeacriticism of the product so personally

Apples and Oranges.Those teams have diehard fans that will stick it out. And casual fans will switch the game if they have a better option.

i feel that there's nothing wrong with criticism if its the proper constructive ones. no show or person is perfect. some criticism is useful, some really isn't. of course none of us are employed by aew or any wrestling company to be able to do much of anything about it.

now looking at it from an analytical perspective, and using cowboys vs giants since its better explained in a sports analogy like most things are. when people turn on sportscenter or any sports related recap show on tv or on social media, the discussion is on the plays on the field or the decisions of the coaching staff at certain points in time. (like whatever the hell the bears were thinking at the end of their game). There's no mention of how many people are in attendance or how many viewers watched on tv. Those are the only numbers that fans can use to criticize a wrestling show tho cuz not everyones perspective is gonna be the same. You may be like, why did this guy win, and someone else may be like, oh I'm glad that guy won. criticism doesn't work if there are two viewpoints that both make sense to different people. unlike football where everyone can agree if a player is hurting the team.

everyone has different views from the most part, except for maybe agreeing that jericho and his stuff is no good. as well as ishii. not everyone gonna agree with your criticism but they also gotta understand that not everyone is gonna agree with their preferences.

i remember a quote from not too long ago where someone said they don't know how people refuse to admit that the company is so horrible or something like that. you can't state your case and then expect the rest of the court to agree with you.

wrestling is a business where we can criticize plenty of things from all over the place. whether its a certain persons in ring skills, moveset or move they do, promo abilities, how they can carry a story, etc. none of it affects us in any way. we just have to enjoy the parts we can and move on. criticism gonna always be there no matter what.

I’ve been to 4 AEW shows the last 4 years:
2021 - regular show, packed house, no tarp
2022 - Shark Week edition, packed house, no tarp
2023 - go-home show, at this point they were getting clowned on relentlessly by fans for botching the Punk/Elite angle that never was, BUT surprisingly one small section tarped off (this would mark Punk’s second to last appearance in the Dub)
2024 - post-PPV show (Okada debut), HALF FULL, if that :dwillhuh:

Witnessing their downfall online and in real time was sad as hell.
:deadrose:

The bidding war shyt died so crazy

I wish I could rep u
Haven’t heard “the bidding war of 2024” once this year :flabbynsick:
