AEW now have 4 midcard belts. Why Tony needs this much?
>>19567659belts are good as long as they don't look gay like the modern e-slop belts
>>19567659>Why Tony needs this much?SAAARR
>>19567659It has 5 when you include the women's one. It has 8 when you include ROH which often gets their titles defended on gAyEW TV. >inb4 WWEYes, WWE has a million belts too. It's retarded and Tony wanting to be like WWE in this regard is fucking retarded.
>>19567659>>19567662This is the same person, isn't it?
>>19567659Booking crutch
>>19567659all pointless slop titles besides TNT
>>19567669It gets worse when you consider Tony also actively shows when his wrestlers hold titles from other companies so it's common to see NJPW and CMLL belts too.
>>19567659The TNT and International ones were fine. The Continental one is dumb and the national just stole the International's supposed gimmick
>>19567659Need to spin off the All-Atlantic belt from the International and bring back the FTW belt. Also keep the unified championship as a seperate thing from the continental and international. Between those 7 plus the heavyweight belt, the tag belts and the trios every single match should have a belt on the line.
>>19567659there's too "much" in AEW. there's too many wrestlers on the roster, too many titles. there are three shows when there should probably only be two.i think there's actually 5 midcard titles, the unified title too no? because the continental and intercontinental titles continued their own lineage after their supposed "unification." and then there's the tag belts, and the trios belts...imo>men - world title, upper midcard title (unified), lower midcard title (TNT), tag titles>women - world title, midcard title, maybe think about tag titles later but not essential>fire legit like 50% of the roster>dynamite 3 hours, ROH takes collision's spot on tva step towards unfucking AEW
>>19567659>national>defended internationally>international>not defended internationally>continental>only defended in a tournament with no entrants specifically from other continents
>>19567689They should keep them but make the belts follow strict rules. >National is the upper midcard belt that is defended on every PPV and at least twice a month on TV maybe main event of the b show>Continental has to be defended against guys from Canada and Mexico and the Continental tournament is tied to it. They send it out to be defended in foreign promotions in North America>international is the same thing except it is Japan and Europe and maybe gets a tournament of its own yearly.>Unified is when someone wins those two belts which makes them #1 contender and they can get a guaranteed title match if they relinquish the belts >TNT has to be defended every TV taping, it’s the workhorse lower midcard belt to give guys exposure but doesn’t get defended on PPV.
They had the perfect set up when it was >World title for the legit top guy>TNT as the open challenge belt that is held by more sports entertainment type guys>International as the belt that travels to other promotions I swear this current mess is all because he just always wants to have a belt for okada to hold
>>19567659>bottom rightWait a fucking minute
>>19568467correct, the AEW national title takes its name from an NWA belt and took its image from another. nobody ever accused tony of being the most original guy in the world lol
>>19567659Continental is a world title.The only belt that does not make any sense here is national.I’m a belt autist and see the reason for practically each title AEW has unlike much of this board. Even then, I see absolutely no difference between National and International.My assumption is that national is supposed to be the traveling belt since All-Atlantic/International became their workhorse belt but they’ve done fuck all with it. I hope it’s role is made more clear in the next year
>>19567659>TNT beltMidcard TV title, defended on TV>International Title Defended against international talents in places like CMLL>National titleDefended on the Indies to increase exposure to the main promotion>Continental titleDefended under strict rules (unless you're Okada apparently)
>>19567701>there's too "much" in AEW.Yep. It's pretty much their M.O. Too many dangerous moves. PPV's that are too long. Too much of a focus on in-ring. Fans that are too into the product to the point that they actively drive away new fans. Too many titles. Too many wrestlers (except rookies, the one thing you want to have too much of). Too many commentators.
Just wait until Tony going to unified National, International and Continental belts and calling it Triple Crown Champion
They will unify all the belts and say it's poetic long term booking
>>19568650Who is Ricochet's next opponent for the National title?
Speaking of midcard titles
>>19567659Because aew is full of dimeless midcarders they can't elevate
>>19568994WWE midcard belts have way more prestige than this county fair tier prop.
>>19569015True
>>19567659Look I hate gAyEW as much as anyone but caring about belt “lineages” and whatnot is fucking stupid. It’s fake dude. I could decree that my living room fed belt was held by inaugural champion Jesus Christ 2000 years ago and that’s it’s the oldest belt in pro wrestling history and literally nobody could refute it
