>Never took anything seriously. Every angle was done with a wink-wink and a nudge-nudge.
>Hey guys isn't wrestling so fake and silly? It's okay when we do stupid shit because we're in on the joke lol
>The ring announcers aren't serious, the production isn't serious, nothing is serious or sacred.
>The 7 star matches are so obviously choreographed. Wrestlers care more about working together for their heckin' high spot then making the match look like a fight
>Garbage death match shit. Even Jim Ross on payroll couldn't pretend any of this shit was good. Now every match in any company without a bucket of blood is seen as disappointing because of how overused blading is.
>Vince tier booking and gimmicks throughout despite AEW being the "smart" promotion, the Bernie Sanders of wrestling. Even Vince didn't put internet meme wrestlers on TV or push them like fucking Goldberg.
>Fans literally headcanoning in angles (see Hangman) because of the lack of storylines. Storylines that do exist were awful. Riccochet is threatening to slit peoples throats with scissors rn. And it doesn't get any heat because fans would rather say "He's SUCH a good heel" then actually get emotionally invested.
>"Best roster in history" only if you ignore that the undercard is filled with some of the worst wrestlers to ever get on TV.
>All ovErrated Wrestling. Every wrestler that signs with AEW is the second coming of christ and then gets sent to ROH to die.
>The "amazing" PPVs get forgotten about in a week because everything is heatless.
>Tony Khan embarrassing himself and the company on twitter constantly. The fans enabled him, and now even they can't defend his booking or behavior
AEW was always trash. Fags bought into Tony's underdog mission (Much like the wrestlers) only to realize that he sucks and his product does too. Once the KILL EVIL WWE mentality faded, AEW had nothing left to distract you from how bad it is
