AEW is beyond awful right now. Tony Khan is the worst booker in the history of the business. Dave Meltzer is also the biggest cheerleader for the worst booker ever 😂

[@justinmichaels7856]

So is WWE but marks don't see it 💯 the problem is the 40 plus yr old marks like these channel talks about stuff like this to get there channel out there instead of talking about how to fix it just crap on it . That's the problem 40 plus year old man that can't fix your life talking about a company to make themselves feel better

[@DavidDexterGaming]

@justinmichaels7856 Jim Cornette has been giving REALLY solid advice to Tony for 5 years now. Eric Bischoff has been giving solid advice to Tony for at least a couple of years. Even JD and Disco & Konnan give advice to Tony Khan. Dutch Mantell has given advice to Tony Khan but Tony ignores it all and literally does the complete opposite to what they say many times and thus here we are in Tony's vision of AEW but the vision sucks, there are no good stories and a lot of bad Indy guys who shouldn't be pretending to be pro wrestlers, like Orange Cassidy for example . Good talents are wasted and over less the longer they stay in AEW.

[@Jinzo9988]

AEW right now is what happens when the people responsible for the show leave their foot on the gas pedal in a McLaren for 3 years and then they wonder why people aren't excited about being in a car that's driving 300 MPH. It was exciting at first... but it gets old once you get used to it. Nobody's over, and regardless of what anybody on the show does, it feels like you've seen it 15 times before on the same program... and sometimes you've already seen someone else do that exact same thing on the same episode of the show. Not to pick on anyone in particular, but Komander is the perfect encapsulation of that promotion. Dude debuts, he does his rope walk spot, and it's like... wow that was awesome. His second match, he does the same spot again, and it's like... okay, cool. His third match, he does the same spot again, and now it's old hat. That's a spot you do maybe once a year at a big PPV. The circumstances and situation in the match is just right and just perfect, there he goes, he nails it, and it's a real highlight of the night. But no... three matches in, I've seen it three times, it's no longer cool to me, and I'm sitting there like "okay, clearly the only reason they signed you is for this one spot, and you seem to have nothing else to offer", and three matches in, I'm done with this guy. That's what that promotion feels like. You've done it all 15 times over and nothing means anything anymore.

WWE ECW brand was like WWE putting up their middle finger to everybody that has grew up with ECW before they closed down and bought out by WWF in 2001. even in 2001 that trash invasion really put a bad taste in my mouth, y'all seemed to praise NXT half ass tribute to ECW at this point i just want them to leave ECW alone. TNA hard core justice ppvs and all of other TNA's tributes to ECW that included new jack - the heart and soul of ECW (RIP New jack) they're still infinitely better tributes to ECW then anything WWE has done with it. WWE needs to just stop trying milking the dead cow. WWE tarnish the "ECW" name from that shit WWE ECW brand that's now attached it, and leeches from it. kids today can't tell the difference and don't know that ECW was a company bcuz they're only familiar with ECW bcuz of the 2006 WWE ECW brand. sorry but i disagree wwe needs to stay far away from ECW and they also need to stop calling them "ECW originals" it's a stupid branding. "WWE's ECW the new breed" is trash just as much as WWE ECW brand. just leave it alone and leave the past alone.
