yea I will say, a lot of hardcore fans migrated back to WWE once triple h took over because for a lot of them it was never about really wanting an alternative as much as it was about them wanting WWE to be enjoyable again

a lot of AEW's initial goodwill was based on vince fatigue and being better than what he offered but they can't skate off of that anymore so their flaws aren't overlooked as much
100%

It was never about having an alternative to WWE those already existed

People just wanted something better than what Vince was giving us it was easy to book better the Vince once Triple H took charge it was a wrap

Hologram vs Mortos in a 2/3 falls match on a PPV:skip:

But Ricky Starks is nowhere to be seen

Miro wants out

You’re Trios division is dead

But that’s what you put on a PPV:martin:

at some point if they want Hologram to actually be something he's gonna have to work with people other than luchadores doing the same choreographed shyt

Take the book from TK. :snoop:


I dont mind the wacky side, the Emi Sakura matches, the back stage silliness etc, I like the fact that AEW can offer that. But TK doesn’t understand time and place. Booking is random as shyt , except to his mind.

Match strength alone ain’t resonating
And feats of athleticism do not automatically make a good match

at this point what do u think can be done creative wise or business wise to recapture the hype and spark AEW once had
Ratings don't matter, not sure the booking/crearive matters either as their fanbase largely doesn't have an issue with it and as they have repeatedly reminded everyone that still has criticism "they got the bag." I think it largely sucks but so does most wrestling. :manny:
