In my opinion, the first and second years were the worst years of AEW as it had bad indy wrestling and bad creative. We had to deal with Best Friends, Brandi, Nyla Rose, Sonny Kiss, Joey Janela, Marko Stunt, The Dark Order as a serious group, The Elite were all over the show and the women's division was a lot worse.
The booking still sucks but the roster is a lot better right now. I do feel like they are slowly figuring out that you need to have ongoing storylines, you need to have recaps and you do need to tell people about upcoming events.
Full Gear is one of the worst PPV's they have put out there though. So many of their pushed wrestlers are not on the show for non-injury reasons - Okada, Hobbs, Christian, Wardlow, Starks, FTR, Darby, Danielson, Samoa Joe, Kenny, House of Black, Jericho, The Bucks, Toni, Britt Baker, and Mariah. It's not a card focused around good matches. MJF is being wasted with Roderick Strong. OC is being pushed as a serious main eventer. Garcia vs Perry is one of the most dimeless matches ever amongst other issues.
