AEW used to sell more live tickets than WWE. What went wrong?

As it turns out, watching a nepo baby play out his EWR saves in meatspace isn't very interesting. You'd have a better time watching CPU Fire Pro matches.

About 40% of their audience killed themselves.

WWE was still recovering from 2019
AEW came in white hot and stayed hot until Tony lost control of the plot when AEW started becoming bloated in 2021

AEW was the alternative and WWE sucked.

Now WWE is good and people now realize AEW was never good.

Vince had his company taken from him and HHH books a show that more paying fans enjoy. When Vince came back, Ari was like "HHH does this better without you, fuck off."

Tony kept doing the same thing while WWE is at least attempting to improve itself, and it's gaining them more attention.

Shiny new toy mixed with hype from journalists during WWE's shittiest era. WM 2022 coupled with Hangman's shitty title run and the Punk fiasco that led to Brawl out completely flip-flopped the momentum and nothing has really changed since.

There was a time where I made this and it actually fit.
Insane how badly AEW has fallen. Vince getting outed was genuinely a death knell for AEW

The only time AEW was hot was when people thought they were going to make Bryan Danielson their world champ. As soon as people realized that wasn't going to happen they stopped watching.

Tony decided that his fanbase would like it if the shows looked and felt like WWE shows but with flippy no-sell wrestling, and he was wrong.

Freshness factor, it was actually a decent in when it started, then Tony Khan happened.

I will never understand the logic behind this move, Bryan is a great wrestler to put the strap on, he is great and most importantly, not a self mark who will be willing to make retards look like legitimate main event contenders, instead they had MJF as their champion for over a year, during which they literally forgot he was about to pass up Kenny Omega as the longest reigning AEW champion among other embarrassing shit.
