They divided into 3 units and the 3 units are all selling merch like hot cakes. The original unit is literally just KENTA, Chase, Ishimori and Fale and it still keeps drawing.
The original reason why it got successful is because the name/logo is cool and gaijin heels going full cheating was a breath of fresh air in NJPW and Devitt was pretty charismatic when he was just swearing like a sailor. Then it got the perfect storm of AJ Styles, Kenny Omega, The Young Cucks with their PWG popularity, and cool name/logo to merch it to America.
There's a lot of people with Bullet Club shirts that just like it because they think it's a gun rights thing.

Smark wrestling itself was at its best, but on the other hand, a lot of the annoying AEW trannies you see now were NJPW fans, so it wasn't great.

2011-2014 was the perfect time, 2015 was good but already clearly not as good, 2016-2019 was bad

This post is proof that AEW fans are just poser smarks that think they know wrestling because they watch AEW. fucking pathetic.

>>14392523
same reason why the Shield was so successful. you had credible heels in an age where the template for your average chicken shit heel was the Miz
