Reminder that they're not and it was actually the return of CM Punk after 7 years that boosted the ratings during that time period.

Considering that AEW Dynamite's ratings remained higher than they were before Punk's debut on average i'd say that some people did stick around.

pre-Punk/Danielson/COle, they were getting 1m+ with matches like Mox/Archer and Christian/Blade.
they have tripled the pay roll in that time and are getting the same results as they were back then.
tony just keeps pissing in the wind

That's because AEW was still fresh and still had some residual hype, not because people actually wanted to see Harpo and Stunt on TV.

Have you seen him? Lel, he is the most popular guy just because he was big in WWE a decade ago not because he is any good now.

Not him, but how are you refuting what he said? It's not fresh anymore. The company has a completely different feel now. Punk, Cole, and all the other NXT washouts have their fans, but they're all a huge turn-off to a significant segment of the audience. No different from Cena or Reigns.

A better feel since its not a complete outlaw mudshow like it used to be, they could do just fine without shitters like Luchasaurus and Atom though.

kek Punk couldn't be rejected by the fans as badly as those shitters if he actively tried, dude literally noped outta the business for over 7 years and people still lost their minds for him coming back.

Reigns can't even get a babyface reaction for going over cancer!

It's not better. It's Tony Khan rebooking WWE in his vision. The format and presentation are completely different. There are even more shitters on the shows now than there were before. A guy like Christian Cage, since he was mentioned in the OP, felt like his TNA self and fit in, whereas now he feels like the WWE version and is out of place. You're lying to yourself if you believe that the post-All Out changes have been for the better.

WWE has the talent and prestige, they just have shitty booking and even worse presentation, if he is trying to offer a better WWE then good for him, better than CHIKARA 2.0 with a bigger budget like in the beginning.

The first year or two sucked, but spring and summer 2021 were hot and much more entertaining than this post-Phil/-Atom period has been.
