Looking to figure myself out but here to enjoy my life
What exactly about AEW today is different from their first 2 years?

Presentation? Style? Star Power? Roster?

Boo AEW Boo
This should have been in the last round, not the next.
The intensity, the story, it was set in place. The seeds were there……

Honda Civic? Are you nuts!!!
We could get sponsorship from Mercedes

Exactly.
TK gave Sting & Danielson great runs to championships. Allowed them to participate in chaotic matches & pairing them up with other wrestlers in many potential dream matches.
Also the potential to make the Opps into a legit threatening faction for the trios division

To many fans have been conditioned to believe a good championship reign has to be more than 6 months.
I recall some of the GOATs had short reigns & it never affected them in the long run

Giving them the open challenge was the right move

Jericho wasn’t too bad during the feud. The issue was in the spotlight for too long it was clear during his feud w/ Hook. He just needed to be off tv for a while, to let the audience breath

That’s why I think she’s getting a lot of tv time, not only for the tag titles. But to also use her as the catalyst for a Women’s Blood & Guts match.

I do see Top Flight’s momentum is suffering from being booked from stable to stable. They’re currently in ROH in a program w/ STP for the 6 man titles, last time I checked, but I think they should be used to build the tag division in ROH

Aminata was given similar long term booking treatment as Skye Blue & Julia Hart. She wrestled a lot of matches were she was meant to elevate talent. I’d argue her matches w/ Thekla finally made AEW realize she can no longer be seen as enhancement talent. I think next year she’ll be given a big push

Jaime, before she was paired w/ Britt, was another wrestler on the roster in random matches. Then she was only meant to be Britt’s muscle.
Jaime winning the world title truly elevated her on the roster. Right now she’s in a great position w/ the women’s tag tourney & the eventual Blood & Guts match

Harley was simply a valet & side character in QT’s group & then was just meant to take pins when she was paired w/ Sarayaz
The work that was done to present her a serious wrestler & to be over w/ the crowd in the women’s division I would argue is an example of AEW elevating their talent.

Off the top of my head I think of Skye Blue, Queen Aminata, Top Flight, Jaime Hayter & Harley Cameron

Teasing a 2nd Blood & Guts match

I still can’t believe Sting & OC gave each other hairline fractures over that spot.
Thankfully they have the healing factor of Wolverine
