>>17457000AEWs entire thing since conception has been that they're not out to give respect just because you were in the Fed. So many "controversies" happened because some out of touch vet came in and got a sore bum because they were treated as older lower card guys as opposed to wrestling Gods like WWE has instilled this entitlement to them.
No one is looking to Mark Henry, Bubba Ray, Scotty 2 Hotty, Tully Blanchard, CM Punk, Big Show, Arn Anderson, literally any of the people associated with the Fed who did stints in AEW, for advice on how to get a wrestling show up off the ground. And why? Because their entire mentality is "The WWE way is the only way" despite them being completely devoid of the fact that WWE isn't a wrestling company, it's an entertainment company.
