I think AEW tries too hard to be the “back to the basics” rasslin’ show while also trying hard to appeal to a specific, “new age” part of that crowd that doesn’t give a fuck if anything makes sense. It’s a turn off. I don’t like it.
WWE does the same kinda thing where they try to appeal to both casual fans and hardcore fans at the same time and it becomes a muddled mess.
That being said, I am able to find things in AEW that I enjoy even if I can’t make it through an entire show without cringing.
I can’t really say the same for WWE.
