I have said this for 3 years now, Tony needs a PPV in January or something, because EVERY YEAR Winter is Coming to Revolution is stagnant and slow. Last year Punk vs MJF was carrying the show at least though because it's too long between PPVs. It was the same between Double or Nothing and All Out but at least now there's Forbidden Door (presumably) to help with that.

Its the same match every single time. Who cares about it anymore. Bucks only work on small doses, when they were in the indies, they had the same match but there was more time between them so it didnt get stale. Now its stale. When it comes to Kenny, he doesnt care about the american audience. See hin wrestle at japan and its like you are watching a completely different guy, its a damn shame because he is good but he just doesnt care

this is the dumbest board on 4chan. notice how one the retards replying to you actually says they should have booked something better. these idiots would insist they could book better than tk, but their plan would be "just book all the top guys against each other". and they're so dumb they don't see any problem with that. of course, the problem comes when you ask them to book another show now they've burned all their top matches.

"Winter is coming" is just a normal episode of the TV show with a shit name stuck onto it. Don't pretend it's a real event, Tony. The show has been consistently bad all along. It had the benefit of the doubt, it had goodwill. That's all gone now. It's not bad because of when events happen, it s bad because the guy in charge is incompetent.

Because we said as much years ago and you decided to spam the board to death as revenge for any slight criticism of your god. Now we are basking in the fact your smark god is admitting the smark cult had it wrong this whole time.

Unfortunately thats true. A lot of matches in AEW don't really mean anything.
It's either
>No one gives a shit who wins
>It doesn't mean shit who wins
>Everyone knows who wins
>Everyone knows the feud continues anyway
>Match is just a random match between 2 people that is just there for someone to run in at the end
This shit pissed me off. Sure the matches are kino a lot of times but it's such an easy thing to fix. Especially the last one. 70% of the storytelling is just
>X has a match with Z
>Y interrupts X/beats him up after the match/cuts a promo on the big screens after the match

He would have never gotten over, not without being a heel first.
There are two types of wrestlers: Gokus and Vegetas.
Gokus can naturally be over as babyfaces without much trouble and Vegetas need to be a reformed bad guy to get over. Roman is a Vegeta.
