NXT only won with Cody

So it took an AEW guy to beat AEW

I'm saying Cody is working an AEW gimmick in WWE and has become their top babyface

Therefore, WWE = AEW = WWE.

WWE is an established brand, AEW is not. Compare the views the Hardy Boys got during their last WWE run with the views in the AEW YT channel. Their fans didn’t evaporate, they’re simply not booked in a program with a wider appeal.

Correct, AEW draws like shit.

But none of this takes away from my point either.
WWE's top guy is an AEW gimmick so WWE = AEW = WWE.

The last 800k was from airing the CM Punk footage which, made Perry look like a bitch

The Codelander gimmick was never worked in any other promotion but AEW. Not on his post-WWE indie stint, not in NJPW, nor anywhere else.

The tattoo, the red white and blue, the over the top pageantry, the extravagant entrances.
AEW gimmick.

Unironically, the different temperament of fans. More kids in the audience, more people who are willing to go with kayfabe.

AEW's audience is routinely the worst thing about AEW, if you ask me. It's a collection of the most jaded fans in the world, the people who got so sick of all the bullshit in WWE and now believe they've found a show where they can dictate the booking with their self-mark chants and retardation.
Gimmicks that don't work at all in AEW will work in WWE and vice versa, depending on the gimmick.

The 'American Nightmare' version of Cody Rhodes that exists in WWE now is just the face version of Cody that feuded with the Authority and tagged with his brother in 2013 with an American Flag paintjob.

>Projecting your personal sour feelings about a fanbase and calling it business analysis

Many such cases on here. AEWs failure to draw are down to three big things - poor consistency in stories/starmaking, poor marketing (there was a noticeable change this month due to some new hires. Only took them 5 fucking years) and due to having far inferior production values and crew than WWE. At the end of the day WWE looks like a million bucks and AEW has about a cool a look to it as 2018 WWE
