I do not equate AEW with WWE in any capacity. I see two wrestling companies who go about things very differently, and I like that. When I am watching AEW, I am not hate-watching out of spite for WWE, I just typically like what is on. Their women's division is shit, and a lot of the lower/mid-carders are super green, but the majority of what I do tune in for is very fun.


I stopped watching WWE when I was just bored and didn't give a shit about what was happening anymore. I don't watch either company because of something the other does or doesn't do.


Also, who gives a shit about what has historically worked. it's great to buck the trend and even greater when it is successful. There's more than one way to do nearly all things in life, and more power to those who make it happen.


Overall, I view it as a chance for more talent to have more opportunity, and at the end of the day, that's a net positive for the industry as a whole. I hope that AEW continues to grow. I think the industry as a whole would be better off for it.
If everyone has their views, why can’t I have mine? Why are they immediately intrusive and threatening to other people’s? You say you don’t care about the ratings, which may or may not be true, but you KNOW that isn’t the case in general. Stop with that.

They don’t go about things very differently though. You are allowed to have an “opinion” about that, but when people point out how they do things exactly the same, those people get shit on. And it’s not just me.

You can profess that you don’t give a shit about WWE or whatever. Again, you KNOW that isn’t the general attitude the hardcore fan has about AEW and the WWE. To tie it into ratings, that’s why you have forced news stories about AEW beating WWE in men 18-34 in cities beginning with “B” if you take the rating against the football against the one from three weeks later when everything else had a test pattern.

And to whoever said it about Smeat: I don’t jump on him for dropping news. Wtf? I used to defend Smeat, but my issue with him now is that he takes “news” that can clearly be dismantled in a heart-beat, and regurgitates them as true, throwing his hands up with no ownership over it. THAT’S my issue with him and he knows it.

God help you if you come to TPWW for the news, lol.

As long as he’s unwilling or unable to see the issue here it’s just a never-ending circle. Noid desperately comes up with ridiculous things to shit on AEW about, he gets called out on it, claims bias, rinse, repeat.

Stick to actual gripes with the product. There’s plenty. Or keep coming up with stupid ones but do it with a wink and a grin.

The asinine, bullshit points mixed with “YOU ALL CAN’T HANDLE THESE TRUTH BOMBS” smugness is the problem. And even when you do actually come up with a fair gripe, that stink remains tied to you.
You cannot see how AEW signing a big, tall Indian athlete to gain attention and traction in India is in any way like the WWE signing a big, tall dude to gain traction in the same market? This is really the “ridiculous” thing you’re going to cling to? Odd hill to die on.

See, I like discussing things re: wrestling. But you love to argue for the sake of it, to the point that you actually lose any firm position and often argue based on semantics or a projected interpretation of what you want to respond to. You’re not a dummy like so many people, but you’re a giant sea-lion just waiting to say “Well, actually” to people, regardless of whether or not you authentically believe what you’re saying, or that even they said what you’re saying.

Yes, AEW signing a green giant from India is very similar to the same business decision the WWE made to bring in Dalip Singh. That is not a ridiculous claim to make, lol.

Also like how it basically turns into “You’re right, but because people don’t like you, they won’t admit it,” which is basically what I’ve been saying all alone. Thanks.
