I don't even care anymore who that'S supposed to be because at this point it doesn't even matter anymore as they already have multiple championships. So why would whoever that is improve their situation beyong that? Same for the Action Andretti and Lio Rush heel turn. They teased that for months and never pulled the trigger and now once they finally turned heel, they are feuding with private party instead with top flight who they've turned on. Turn them immediatly and have them feud immediatly when there is still heat from the turn. There are several other examples and I get it they had bad luck in some cases like with the Adam Cole injury, but still they often did that without any need as well.

      It's baffling that people feel the need to attempt to force other people to enjoy what they enjoy in order to validate their viewing experience. Ospreay vs Danielson is objectively a phenomenal piece of in-ring artistry. At the same time I can personally say it left me cold because I don't follow AEW week to week and watch wrestling for the bombastic soap opera overtures than I do for wrestling agility (in fact, if I'm really honest I used to fast-forward the matches during the attitude era so I could get to the storylines unfolding). We all consume media differently and all get something unique out of it. How I wish we could celebrate difference as opposed to gatekeep similarity.

    The bigger issue with social media is so-called fans who fanboy on things without any critical thinking. The worst example is Logan Paul. People who know far less about the sport than they think blathering on about how great he is without putting his circumstances into context. He's had 15 total matches (including Royal Rumble and Elimination Chamber) in more than 2.5 years with the company. He had weeks to practice most of them, has only wrestled two TV matches and has never wrestled a house show match. But because he hits spots and was given an undeserved U.S. title run, somehow he's great. Take it from someone who's watched wrestling a long time, he isn't. That's the most egregious example. And it's been my observation that no matter how bad an idea there has been in wrestling (Raw Underground anyone), there's always someone who professes their love for it without putting it into context. More knowledgeable fans (smarks), fewer marks. Or at least fewer marks whose markness is exposed by their social media postings.

    I agree with Gareth that cards should have fewer matches but for a different reason: more matches makes a lot of them feel rushed. Fewer matches would allow the wrestlers to slow the pace and allow the wrestling to breathe and evolve naturally to tell a story. That way we will have people like Ospreay and Ricochet able to showcase their talents to the full.

    @ChaseSchleich Месяц назад

    There's some decent points in here, but AEW's problem is they don't know how to push someone to that true next level. We've seen so many wrestlers get to a precipice and they're right on the verge of breaking into the mainstream and becoming the biggest thing in wrestling and.... they fizzle out. Booking a wrestling show is easy. Booking someone into superstardom is really fucking hard. It's the one thing Vince was really good at. Vince sucked at so many things, but he knew how to make someone a star. AEW needs to figure that out. Getting them to the mountain top is one thing, but lifting them into the stratosphere is another. AEW has 5-7 wrestlers on its roster who could get there. They just need someone who knows how.
    Oh and wrestlers need to stop being too cool for catch phrases. Look back at every star in wrestling history over the last 40 years. Every one of them had some sort of catch phrase that the audience could repeat. The most over guy in AEW is probably MJF and guess what, he's also one of the only ones with a fucking catch phrase. Not a coincidence. You're not going to get over on wrestling ability alone. If Jon Moxley had some cool catch phrase a few years ago, he could have become the next Steve Austin.

    @2:17 YES!!! Preach!! I cannot stand these stories, and the current death Rider's gimmick "I'm gonna take over and change this company!!" is just passe and 100% completely takes any suspension of disbelief and/or emotional investment and just throws it all way. It just doesn't make any sense, it isn't "cool", and it makes everyone involved look like complete idiots. I hate to say it, but this currrent Moxly incarnation reminds SO much of the last gimmick he had in WWE right before he left. It has the same "get a group of people together, act like everyone is wrong/bad and you need to "clean" it all up by beating everyone up" feel that old gimmick did.
    The only good thing about this whole thing, is the interaction between OC, Jay White, and Hangman. That's it IMO and even that is kinda getting swept away in the horrible vortex that is this story line. They need to end it and start something new ASAP. But seeing how The World's End PPV ended, it seems they are putting it on life support by adding Adam Copeland and Christian Cage into the fray. Hoping that addition will keep it from building up too much hate and fan resentment for a few weeks.
    I mean, I get it, they don't want to stop the story short and make it seem like they made a mistake, and have written many weeks of TV/PPV's around this whole storyline, you know that whole "sunken car fallacy", but sometimes you gotta know when enough is enough and to stop something that is doing more harm than good. Moxly is a huge fan favorite and not someone you want fans to get tired off or even start to hate (and not the good hate a good heel generates), and right now they are overexposing him in a horrible gimmick that's wearing out his welcome rapidly.

    1. Drop Marina Shafir from the deathriders. At least Pac, Claudio and Yuta have a purpose and add meaning to the group. Marina is literally just there 😐. Most useless person in wrestling right now.
    2. The Hurt Syndicate would've been a more believable group to take over AEW. MVP is a master on the Microphone, Lashley and Shelton are far more agile, intimidating and skilled than Moxley tries to present himself as.
    3. It's time to drop the Rhea and Liv feud now. Give Liv some variety in her opponents. She was fantastic at Saturday Night's Main Event and proved despite what some may about her in ring skills, she can go the distance.
    4. It's time Adam Copeland retires for good. Yes I said what I said
    5. Dirty Dom should break off from Judgement Day and become Intercontinental champion.
    6a. Overly choreographed matches where you can predict every move they're going to do
    (B) AEW wrestlers need to learn how to sell and make moves matter instead squeezing in every big move in your arsenal and the excessive spot fests.

    What turned me off of AEW was the fact that it feels like it's run by Twitter and Internet elitists. The storylines rarely make sense, when they do they're phenomenal but when they don't they're hard to watch because I just don't care. Getting Tony Kahn away from the wider internet wrestling community so that he can stop pandering to the loudest minority of fans I feel like is the best way forward. Ironically, not doing what people say you should do and actually plan out the year is why WWE has been so successful. Yes they cater to the fans, but they also subvert expectations all the time (just look at the New Day heel turn for example) and its minimum watchable TV and at maximum incredible to watch and get invested in.
