    The biggest issue with AEW is that the prioritize the wrong things.
    They spend so much time chasing star ratings and Best of the Year accolades, that they've devalued all their titles and gimmicks, and seemingly forgotten how to connect with the wider audience.
    Swerve Strickland and Toni Storm got over by being engaging personas and characters. They should be the example to follow instead of trying to fill every episode of AEW television with 5 star matches.

      That is exactly the reason why they collapsed, they went for more casual audiences with sports entertainment instead of keeping their focus on what brought them to the table in the first place. Casuals don't go for stuff that is made for casuals, casuals go for stuff they are told by friends which are hardcore fans what is good. Like children don't want to watch or play stuff made for children.

      Stop with these foreign talents everywhere, stop focusing on gymnastics, the weekly shows shouldn’t be about the in ring wrestling as that’s for the PPV.
      Focus on characters and storytelling, not gymnastics and how many 5 star matches you can get.
      Us casual fans just want a promotion (just 1 promotion) to be similar to the Attitude Era or Ruthless Aggression Era in style and presentation.

    AEW's main problem is that they have too many titles. Then you have ROH titles when nobody cares about those on their main show. It's too much wrestling, matches go super long & you barely have segments to watch where they build story lines. The wrestlers are look & feel the same with their matches being the exact same. A lot of the AEW wrestlers I can't even tell who they are or know them well.

    @JustAlyx IMO Athena shouldn't be on ROH, Tony Khan need to make ROH AEWs developmental system similar to what NXT is to WWE not a place to dump talent because of a bloated roster. ROH becoming developmental will benefit AEW in the long run because i want them to be less, not more reliant on former WWE guys and former NJPW guys, i want AEW to be largely carried by its own original stars that they built up, with their own performance center.

    I personally don't have a problem if AEW somewhat gets back to their 2019-21 hype. What my problem is they are more wrestling match heavy instead of storyline heavy. Yeah WWE is Entertainment Heavy and they rely alot on storyline driven stuff. You can do storyline driven stuff in AEW,but you have to have something for EVERYBODY.

    With AEW I feel like it's slowly getting back or somewhat maybe 70% back to their 2019-2021 hype but a main problem is mainly the presentation of some wrestlers to where if a non wrestling fan were to be interested in AEW abd wants to know what the Story is with Swerve and him being world champion abd why they should cheer for him to win the belt it'd be hard to explain why besides oh he wants to win the belt cause he wants to. Meanwhile someone like Cody I can easily explain it as Cody left WWE then returned many years later and wants to finish his story of doing something he didn't do in his first WWE run and that's doing something his father and never did in WWE and that's winning a World championship in WWE. I like AEW but it needs improvements

    2 things I wanna add.
    1.) I agree with JDFROMNY and Andrew Baydala when they said that WWE / HBK in particular will make Lexis King FKA Brian Pillman Jr an NXT champion in the next few months maybe by the end of the year, they have been building him, and giving him the platform to thrive and show what he can do and they have showcased him as one of the coolest characters in NXT right now which is something AEW was never able to do or never even tried to do with him.
    2.) You know what they could've done and what AEW should've done Alyx? To continue this BCC vs CMLL feud why not have the BCC show up to the Fantasica Mania PPV which is the event CMLL were doing which is why they haven't showed recently, have the BCC show up at Fantastica Mania and cost these guys their match, and have them do a beat down on them during the event, and then on the Dynamite the same week or the next week, show what happened at the event. Is it great? No. But hey at least youre able to continue the storyline that you started, you'll get the BCC on the show without them being on the actual Dynamite show, and then do the same thing the next few weeks while the CMLL guys are there. Then when they can show up on Dynamite everyone will know what is happening because AEW showed clips of the BCC down in Mexico doing what they did to the CMLL guys. That's what they should've done. And not just stop this feud and have the BCC come out and say "we wanna fight so whatever tag team wants to fight come out here" and here comes out FTR

No one is telling WWE they fumbled 3 free agents. I feel Triple H is riding the same wave TK had from 2019-2021. What do you do if your AEW going into your TV Rights deal?
