The cynic in me believes he's latching onto what's popular with smarks to maintain his userbase.
But more realistically he's always had bad taste and wrestling has finally gotten so bad that it's more obvious. He liked southern and Japanese wrestling over WWF not because they were they took wrestling more seriously or told better stories in and out of the ring, but because they were doing the cooler moves. The only reason he didn't go nuts for the 2000s indie boom was because he was trying and failing to be taken seriously as an MMA journalist.
