Wasn't just Andrade that FOX wanted since they also wanted Brock Lesnar (barely for a month), Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch and/or Charlotte (only had Charlotte for a week), and Rey for their core of top stars. Only star they managed to actually get from their list was Reigns.

Also didn't get the sports-like presentation WWE promised for SD nor the sports-like talk show format promised for WWE Backstage.

Problem with AEW's sports-like promise was people thinking that meant it was going to be just like NJPW when that quickly ended up not being the case. They have added some sports-like stuff with post show press conferences for events and the rankings and records system even if those could use a bit more tweaking. Plus once Taz joined, they started doing breakdowns of moves/spots just like what you'd see in a sports game or sports news show.
