Good point. Wwe has the longevity factor and tours worldwide so their marketing game is on point. Plus they have a diverse group of employees. Shows broadcast all over the world in different languages. AEW is mainly only white English folks so I don't think they're broadcast or appeal much to an international non English speaking audience. And marketing is important too. They starting to get into the action figure and video game industry which wwe has been in for years. Those type of things take time to develop and establish a strong position in, plus consistency. They need to work on one thing at a time while they're still young and then venture into new ideas after. To compete with wwe they need to get more experience, and they will over time.I think they were cautious in the beginning, but after the first year they saw what AEW is all about, they decided to offload all those contracts. AEW can grow nationally, but that WWE name is global and until they feel threatened there or AEW is signing billions dollar network deals, Vince is just going to do his own thing
Why would anyone respect a company that has a Jericho vs Nick Gage freak show garbage wrestling match as their main event for the night?
Oh it's even worse than that.
The wrestling isn’t nearly as crisp from those young AEW cats, and the biggest draws are still the transplants.
The Elite were made in Japan/ROH, well before AEW was a thing. Thats not homegrown talent. FOH.
