That's my main criticism of NXT. Everyone whines how NXT stars get buried when they move to the main roster. It's because the vanilla flippy midget shite that works in NXT doesn't work on the main roster. The mainstream wants to see big men on the main roster. It's why an arm wrestling match between Bobby Lashley and Braun Strowman has 5x the views on YouTube than videos featuring two "workrate" focused wrestlers wrestling in the ring
I think smaller wrestlers have their place but you need big men to be your main eventers and make up the bulk of your roster, not the other way around

I'm going to pass. I am not into "wrestling" enough for all of this. I wish them well though as competition is good for all.

Kenny's lost almost every match he's had in AEW. They're actually using that to play up his storyline on BTE. Page lost to Jericho and almost had a time limit draw against Kip Sabian. Brandi has only made an appearance in one of the battle royales and did not win. I don't know how much Vince is paying you to keep spouting this nonsense but its probably too much.
It's one thing to lose in spaced out, one off events. It's another thing for the Elite to lose on the weekly TV programming.

I’ll probably check out AEW... we’ll see how long it can hold my attention

Amen. I don't know why some people feel the need to diss the other. Be glad there's a big alternative now and WWE has to step up their game again. It worked out pretty well last time.

My issue with AEW is part of their brand building strategy has been to build it on the back of a woke social justice warrior platform. Makes sense since their target audience is liberal white SJW males. But it just turns off people like men who don't care much for that.
(I know some one will point out that Vince is good friends with Trump, but I never see politics come up in WWE programming or off camera shoot interviews from the talent)

Show me on the doll where AEW touched you.

What’s on the agenda tonight for All Elite Social Justice Warrior Wrestling?
Will they focus on sports entertainment/Pro-wrestling? Or will they continue to focus the majority of their attention on pandering to the radical left and SJW crowd.
My guess is tonight will be combination of both since it’s the first show, but ultimately the main goal tonight will be promoting and worshipping mentally confused men pretending to be women. That’s the only reason they have a tranny on their roster.

Tony Schiavone's voice calling wrestling on TNT just sounds right

And Lana making out with Lashley for 5 minutes while her husband watches on was better entertainment? GTFO. If Mondays raw was any indication, AEW is gonna wipe the floor with that nonsense.

And I guarantee you that segment generated more buzz than anything AEW will put out. I bet no AEW Dynamite YouTube video will get as many views as the Lashley-Lana kiss either.
It's the storylines, not the in ring workrate, that draws viewers and fan interest. AEW is trying to make themselves a promotion all about in ring workrate with a "real sports feel", and that is why they will ultimately come up short.

Fox has told WWE to make SD more of a "sports" based show when they start on Friday
we'll see if that has any change

And that is why there are two separate audiences. The people who want to watch AEW don't want that WWE bullshite. There's some crossover, but it's just not the same crowd. Go make a NXT thread for you guys to hang out and fellate WWE in.

Meanwhile WWE's top stories are an interracial relationship, a cuck angle, and a vegan soyboy telling you to stop eating meat.

Is it just me or does Cody look like the Albino Grinch these days?

it seems like DB's turning back face... which will probably end his "Captain Planet" gimmick

I hope they do something with Omega and Jericho in a turn on Young Bucks tonight
That would be awesome how Hangman and Omega start funding to keep Jericho Champion all the whole breaking up the “buddies”
