Ratings aren't a fan's problem and shouldn't be. You should care about the quality of the show. Having come back from 10+ years of not watching wrestling, I can honestly say that AEW is more enjoyable than WWE. Does a lot of dumb shit as well, but WWE is just the same shit on repeat every week, every show, every PPV.
Quickly losing interest in it. Expand beyond AEW and WWE though. Check out the indie shit and Japan shit. Find what you enjoy and watch it regardless of ratings, reviews, ect.
