AEW was much better because they were actually forced to come up with creative segments.

I quit watching until they brought back live audiences. It turns out that wrestling kinda sucks without a crowd.

Smarks couldn't hijack the show and everything went exactly as McMahon envisioned it. It seriously was the last time WWE was good.

I think Moxley was probably the best champion through it. Mox really did everything he could to carry AEW through it.

I'm not sure there's anything more visually unappealing than the Thunderdome shit they tried. The screens suck, it hurts to look at, and the awkward silence outside of commentary and the grunts of wrestlers was lynchian

The title match at the Royal Rumble where they went into the baseball area was kino. The the screens and the employees acting like fans was cringe. The fake crowd noise was unnecessary. They wasted an opportunity to do a lot of unique stuff, like having matches in different places. Wrestling could have been interesting without crowds, but they didn't really give it a chance.

They should’ve used the opportunity to make the product more cinematic. Someone could’ve changed the business but instead they just did a live show with no audience, which is redundant

At least it looked different. You can’t tell what year something is from over the last 15 years. There are years I don’t remember at all what happened January to December, but I remember what happened during the Thunderdome times just because it’s visually memorable.

No clue how anyone really watched this. I only followed the results, watched highlights, and shitposted on here.
Imagine watching a crowdless Royal Rumble.

As someone that works on similar audience setups I was really impressed. It is a cool idea and they did a good job considering the circumstances.

You now remember that the 2+ year Undisputed Universal Head of the Table was so afraid of Jewish lies that he chickened out at the last minute of WrestleMania (in his home state with no live crowd mind you) and instead Braun Stroman - who otherwise would've been left off of the 2-night card - got to be the only nigga in history besides Undertaker and Lesnar to beat Goldberg clean. For the "Universal" title too.
