>is faster than WWE slow "wrestling"
>is more real and sports based especially after WWE Unreal exposed WWE for being fake scripted choreographed dogshit
>Is harder hitting and has blood and swearing just like in the Attitude Era

Why can't they make any gains in the rivalry? WTF do they have to do to make people switch over from WWE's fake kiddy garbage that is aimed at children and literal retards?

I haven't watched AEW since punk got fired for the second time, are there any storylines/feuds that rival the best feuds of the attitude era? genuine question

>are there any storylines/feuds that rival the best feuds of the attitude era
There could be, but Tony Khan is a fucking retard who doesn't know how to book. As an example, MJF vs Ospreay could be a good feud, MJF had the "American Championship, which was basically like the US title and he was doing an america 1st gimmick and it was going well. Then after two weeks, that stupid dog fucking retard made him lose it to Ospreay in heatless fucking match at All in 2024.

Nothing, AEW already peaked

It's sad to say but AEW was never gonna be "the company" for the vast majority of wrestling fans, all it ever amounted to was "I'll hang out here while WWE gets less dogshit, then leave"
They could always try to court non-wrestling fans but that usually ends up in pic related
>>
>>19905119
The only people watching wrestling in 2026 are literal retards.

Start out by correcting that bullshit approach, you're never gonna get anyone to change the channel by insulting them
If anything you're gonna make them dig their heels in deeper and google what a tony khan is so then can mock him
>>
>>19905119
I still remember really on for like 3 months when AEW was first trying to paint itself as "New Japan but based in the USA and has USA wrestlers and people you might know from New Japan from 2017-2018"
Honestly if they kept that image it would still be seen as an underdog promotion with respect
>>
>>19905258
*early on for like 3 months
>>
>>19905119
all of their wrestlers are 5'6" jewish manlet libtards who aren't good in the ring
they all do the gay as
>I'm being ironic and breaking the fourth wall wink to the camera
shit
and they all fucking suck in the ring. muh flips per flip. Fucking attitude era matches look so much better than modern flippy shit
>>
>>19905119
AEW peaked with the back-to-back signing of Punk and Bryan, but Tony Khan was too incompetent to capitalize on it. That's the reality.
>>
>>19905281
This is a factor too, the Attitude Era didn't have hecking bangerinos but rather short quick matches
And it's not just the matches, watch any random Raw episode from the AE, they had a fuckton of stuff going on through the show, short segments one after the other to keep you engaged
Modern wrestling feels like shit's in slow motion
>>
>>19905119
Even WWE has "blood and swearing," although they do not overdo it as much as AEW. The one thing that both WWE and AEW are lacking are real characters and good storylines. That is the only way AEW can distinguish itself from WWE but Tony Khan is not a writer. Until then WWE will keep winning by default simply because they have name recognition and better production value.

He capitalised fine. Bryan got a great retirement run compared to Cena & AJ shitter tour. And its not his fault Phil is a huge bitch.

Making excuses for Tony Khan is also not the way to get AEW new fans, most people find him off-putting
And you need to quit your "b-b-but WWE" deflecting, it also turns people away
>>
>>19905358
Bryan debuted, had a huge, acclaimed match with Kenny Omega, and then was just another guy on the roster in a matter of months. The retirement run was Tony's last ditch effort at capitalizing on having him, and by then AEW lost tons of viewers.

Punk and Bryan was AEW's Hogan and Savage level signing, and Tony dropped the ball entirely.
>>
>>19905390
The stupidest part to me was how Bryan vehemently didn't wanna be world champion and Tony Khan just went "okay" till it was time for him to retire
Motherfucker I'm paying you all that money you're gonna be world champion and you're gonna kick shitters in the face like you did in ring of honor and yes yes yes all the way to the bank while you do it
>>
>>19905370
I'm not on fucking 4chan trying to get new fans for a wrestling company. You guys are fucking weird lol
>>
>>19905419
Then what is even the fucking point of this thread?
>>
>>19905419
he's an unpaid WWE shill, and just told on himself
>>
>>19905424
That's another thing that turns people away, calling anyone a wwe shill or a bot
>>
>>19905410
Exactly. Bryan phoned it in for most of his AEW run until it was time to retire.
>>
>>19905422
To discuss wrestling you fucking retard holy shit. You don't work for these companies do you??

Yes discussion on how AEW can draw in fans. Not:
>how do random retards in this 4chan thread draw in fans?
Are you actually fucking braindead? Do you think Tony khan is here in this thread calling you a retard?
>>
>>19905177
Damn, so the same problems still prevail to this day. Tony would really benefit from a writing room or a team of people willing to tell him his ideas are shit, I mean he has some literal wrestling veterans working there, surely he could use their minds to create something more cohesive

Once again, this is not conducive to getting AEW more fans, if you can't keep your powerlevel low in 4channel then you're shit out of luck talking normies into checking out Tony's Toybox
>>
>>19905501
Once again. I am not trying to recruit fans for a company off of 4chan. You dont work for the fed and nobody here is recruiting for AEW bro chill out and take your meds
>>
>>19905517
So why ask here? Everyone already made up their minds in /pw/
Fuck off to reddit to get their imput
>the fed
Way to out yourself as an AEWtranny, you people do it out in the wild and it's fucking embarrasing
Shit like that is why AEW isn't growing
>>
>>19905488
He's literally just rehashing storylines from two years ago. Tony is out of ideas unless he has a new signing to debut.
>>
>>19905538
COOKED
THAT
PIG
>>
>>19905538
Tony is just not very creative period, you would imagine someone who loves ROH as much as he does would remember they did some wacky shit and crazy storyline but all he seems to remember are the hecking bangerinos
>>
>if only the eliteCHADS didn't bully me i would be an AEW fan
fuck you, e-drone
>>
>>19905562
Tony never watched ROH. He's a fake ROH fan that was probably obsessed with PWG instead. He just knows ROH had five star matches, and that's where CM Punk, Samoa Joe, etc came from. That's why he completely fucks up ROH's signature matches because he wasn't really a fan.
>>
>>19905580
What was he a fan of then? All his New Japan cred is phony as fuck and he claims to have watched Hulk Hogan vs Sgt Slaughter live but he wasn't even born yet
>>
>>19905595
He's a notorious liar. He claims to be an OG ECW fan and the reality is he went to a handful of shows in like 2000 right before they went bankrupt.
>>
>>19905578
Every time you say this AEW loses another fan
>>
>>19905410
It was a mix of Bryan being stubborn and Tony being too inflexible. The right call was for either Bryan to jump in front of Hangman and take the title off Kenny or have Bryan take the title off Hangman, cutting Hangman's reign at the knees early to build up that Naito type of sympathy for Hangman where fans want to see Hangman have that big moment without something going wrong for him.

It's dog treats so he can lure in some canines he hasn't fucked yet. Kenny Omega does a similar thing with candy so he can have sex with children. AEW really do be an animal sexual abuse/child molestation ring low key.
>>
>>19905119
Many are saying this
>>
>>19905119
AEW actually has some matches where they call shit in the ring. Choreography won, and that's all that old faggot shawn teaches in florida. You at least get glimpses of pro wrestling in AEW.
>>
>>19905119
how is back flipping over your opponent who’s bent over real and sports based?

The main audience for wrestling is literal retards. Even AEW is "for the sickos" who want 20 minute matches and back and forth contests. The issue is no one is giving them 3-minute squashes which is what they want.
>>
>>19905119
kek. you thing wrestling is a sport

Lmao didn't I tell you guys that smarks think wrestling is real? They actually think these matches have merit and the meltzer star rating is the official score akin to the olympics. They don't realize this shit is a soap opera they legit think they are watching a sport
