Please tell me the unique hook that draws fans to each title and can't be experienced in any of their other titles

TNT is the TV title and regularly defended on weekly shows
Continental is the pure wrestling title and interference and bullshit are completely banned
International doesn't really need to exist but it's a much nicer belt than TNT so I'd absorb TNT into it

why do they insist on calling them that stupid ass name instead of calling them the objectively cooler and more intimidating bullet club gold like they used to. i swear this fucking company is anti dimes.

Banning interference inherently exposes the business, because why wouldn’t interferences be banned in every title match

they are and typically would result in a dq and the title holder retaining. the issue is that the monkey brained referees in AEW typically forget to turn their bodies away from said interference and usually witness it happening, but because that's the planned finish they have to just pretend they didn't see it so the match can happen. many such cases.

Replace top left and bottom left and yes.

What's crazy is that even though these people ARE dimes they are currently dimes less. AEW just can't get anything over. I think it's bad delivery, bad production just a bad product.

it's the utterly bizarre insistence on bringing in big names and making them midcarders, immediately killing any star power/hype they may have
you just look at how wwe treated cody (an upper midcarder in AEW, lest we forget) to see how retarded that is

they took the john cena of new japan, put him in a heatless, dimeless angle with two go away heat shitters and gave him a meaningless midcard belt that's already been lost in the revolving door of championships in that company. I think Tony is fuckin allergic to dimes. If I didn't know any better, I would think he's intentionally sabotaging the company and trying to book as poorly as possible, I just can't see why he would do that.

I think AEWs issue is they don't pit their top stars against each other. Literally every week it's a big star versus some literal who jobber or shitter. Every single fucking week. Edge versus ring of honor literal who.

Jay White versus someone you've never heard of. Moxley versus Japanese jobber.

Just fucking put your top guys against each other. It's like imagine if the attitude era you had Austin, Rock, Show, Kane, HHH, Jericho, Taker. And instead of them going against each other we have got an exciting RAW for you folks. Austin vs Funaki, Rock vs one of the headbanger's.

for some reason tinny kin is terrified to make his stars face eachother. might upset someone if one of them has to lose and tinny kin doesnt want his toys upset with him. thats why its always "star" vs nobody who.

Tony is afraid of booking his big stars against each other because then someone has to take the loss
He thinks that if he books some of these young jobbers against bigger name guys it will give the lower card guys the rub and get them over, when it just means no one will care about them because they lose all the time
How many years will Dante Martin keep getting put on tv? He has no character and has developed nothing in the 4-5 years he’s been there

I think AEW could sustain 8 titles across their 3 shows
1. World title
2. Women's title
3. Tag title
4. TNT title can stay as the defacto TV title but come up with a rule like 10 minute time limit or defended weekly or it's the only open challenge title
5. A high fliers title. Call it cruiserweight or junior hvwt or even call it "the aew lucha" champion.
6. A hardcore title somewhere between the OG WWF Hardcore title and the NEVER openweight title. Call it a "tough man title" or "brass knuckles" or "no holds barred"
7. Merge the inter and Continental belts. Call it something beside intercontinental. Make it the forbidden door title. It's different wrestlers fighting each other, American vs Canadian, Japanese vs Brit, Mexican vs Russian, etc
8. I'm not opposed to a trios title but they're not making it work. I propose a mixed trios belt. 2 men, 1 women or 2 men, 1 mini or 2 men and a scrawny manager. Something for opening scrambles with more structure

Swerve is transitional champ. Soulless -
Toni dimes. Female stable in AEW is the best one in the biz +
Willow is ugly. It would be better Skye Blue or Hart -
Young Bucks ok +
Roderick Strong ok +
Edge +
Jay White dimes and deserves more -
Okada should be main guy. Like Mox in NJPW. -

All-Atlantic championship got rebranded as International during Cassidy's first reign.

The Continental championship was added when they ran their G1 equivalent tournament, the Continental Classic. Set time limit, no outside interference, and holder is automatically putting it on the line at next years tournament. Eddie also put his ROJ and STRONG belts on the line, but the three weren't consolidated into one like many assumed they would.

That's just the half the problem. Gayew would give you Austin vs Kung Funaki, but instead of a 5 second squash match, you'd get an hour long BANGER! where Funaki has to eat 20 stone cold stunners before the tiny faggot finally goes down. That shit would kill Stone Cold's aura so fast, because he'd look like a weak ass faggot.

Yeah people have tried to get wrestling over in china & korea and it flops every time. Japan is the only asian country that actually used to like wrestling and even then I think it's mostly due to the big 3 Rikidozan, Giant Baba & Inoki. It's kinda like how gaming in Japan is still thought to be the nes-ps2 era but any era after that, gaming just became a niche in Japan.

>>14511045
kek I still don't understand why Willow gets pushed so much. She's ugly as fuck and she doesn't even wrestle well. I don't understand who she's supposed to appeal to. The average Black doesn't give a fuck about her. At least with Jade, I understood.

Swerve is one of 3 guys to get organically over in AEW, the other two being the acclaimed. Turn Nana face, or have Swerve leave the group, and give him a finisher that doesn't require his opponent do the mortal kombat fatality sell while they wait for him to jump. Could be dimes.
The ladies, are whatever. Storm's gimmick isn't as good as people pretend it is. Keep them barely on TV and in super short segments and matches and it should be fine.
Bucks sucks.
Strong is great solely because he's a product of the 2000s indies and not the 2010 indies.
Edge is fine I guess. I know he has fans.
White deserves more and the trios titles shouldn't exist.
Okada is goated when he tries, he's not trying in AEW lol
