>>11868953what i hated most was the way they shifted from everyone on the roster being able to interact with each other in interwoven storylines like WWE before 2002-ish, to how they then made linear dumbed down feuds just like WWE. very disappointing, any kind of creativity AEW had ran out very early.
some other red flags off the top of my head without reading the rest of this thread yet.
>hiring every WWE reject like mark henry and big show>the way japanese/NJPW talent is used>matches being too long has been a problem since the very start>that period where wheeler yuta and daniel garcia were being pushed and given significant TV time every week while better, more interesting talent got little or no TV time>how tony acted during punk's meltdown>cody deciding to leave a company that he basically created and ran to go work for someone (paul) who he had spent the last 4 years antagonisingthe endless BCC v jericho society feud and MJF's botched return were basically where i stopped watching
