>This AEW title setup highlights the central weakness of current AEW booking - lack of guts to just have top stars beat other top stars. Yes, you can construct a tourney to avoid anybody important getting pinned, but what does your world title mean if that's how it's decided?
>Ever since the influx of top talent in the last year and a half, TV revolves around the same 25-40 protected wrestlers beating the same 25-40 unprotected wrestlers. The protected wrestlers only seem to wrestle each other 4 times or so a year so it's completely unclear who's best.
>This is certainly better than just beating your top stars all the time, but you've got to have the courage to pick winners and losers among the stars and confidence you can rehab the losers. A WORLD TITLE TOURNAMENT is obviously a time when that needs to happen in particular.
>Goto's a low middle guy in a different company. Why on Earth is he one of the final 4 in a title tournament? Tana's better but he's still never wrestled in the company he's fighting for the title of. Mox's had 3 singles matches in 3 months. And a battle royal is a battle royal.
