Not exactly, but in that example yes.
Using Moxley as the example again, what exactly is his character? Answer is, he is a former WWE star, made famous by them, who says he is so much better than WWE let him be.
But howso? The only thing different is now he talks about how he is better than WWE let him be. Other than talking about it, and being allowed to use more props, he is the same guy.
I said it a while back, I mostly enjoy the 2 hours of Dynamite, but it is the rest of the week where everything they do as a company is just to me, a detriment to putting out an enjoyable product.
Instead of thinking nice swerve on Jericho, because of Moxley himself, I think "I thought he hated all that goofy shit, how is this any different?" and that makes it less enjoyable to me.
It's the phrase "if he could just get out of his own way" that is the perfect description of how I view AEW.
