What I dislike is the AEW fanbase. They are the most obnoxious, unwarrantedly arrogant, and aggressively stupid people I have ever had the displeasure to interact with. For the most part even the retards that watch WWE don't fuck with you unless you fuck with them first. AEW fans insert themselves into everything, demand you like what they like, and then immediately default to calling you every name in the book and seething for hours that you don't like the exact same things they do in the exact same way they do.
I didn't watch WWE from the day Paul cut the "My Friend Mark" promo until AEW fans showed up on Noah threads demanding that everyone watch AEW. They were so terrible that I actually started watching NXT just to spite them since it was getting so hyped at the time. NXT turned out to be really good so I ended up making it a weekly part of my viewing habits and ended up subbing to Peacock just to follow the storylines on PPVs.
I don't hate AEW or most of its workers. I lowkey think Eddie Kingston is the best guy in the world on the mic even if he is dogshit in the ring. As a decades long deathmatch fan the last few years of Mox have been pure retard kino, even that hilariously bad no rope barbwire explosion match had its own charm. Hell a few of the C2 matches have been amazing, and I wish Tony would make Briscoe his default Yoshi-Hashi character since he seems committed to burying him all the time despite how good he has been in this tournament.
What I hate is the AEW audience. They are trash. Everything they do is fatherless behavior and their projections of their own failings onto everyone else as some sort of weird ass cope is gross. I am grateful that they will never reproduce. Regretfully AEW fans share the same interest I do so I have to tolerate them until they die.
