How can WWE compete?
>>
>>19905156
>Best booker Tony Kahn
How? I'll admit Triple Gay is just as bad but what gave him the edge?
>>
>>19905156
Embarrassing
>>
>>19905182
Better booking if you can't believe it.
>>
>>19905209
Doubt it
>>
>>19905213
You can doubt it all you want, the results speak for themselves.
>>
>>19905213
And yet he won the best booker award. Your doubt means fuck all
>>
>>19905156
WON Awards are a useless metric. Voters are primarily composed of knee jerk "fed bad" smark contrarians that will vote WWE for all of the bad awards, and anything not WWE for the good awards. The entire Worst Promotional Tactic was just a bitch and seethe fest over WWE's existence. Raising ticket prices is not a "promotional tactic." NXT was awarded Worst TV Show of the year simply because it beats AEW in the ratings week after week. There's no reason to take any of the WON Awards seriously.
>>
>>19905156
compete with what?
>>
>>19905222
>>19905234
Are these Meltzer awards as prestigious as an Oscar or an Emmy? What's the caliber of award here?
>>
>>19905241
You seem upset. You know that you don’t have to defend an inferior product, right?
>>
>>19905156
I'll admit WWE's booking was pretty trash in 2025, but most of that was out of their hands. Clearly they had bigger plans with The Rock and Travis Scott, and something fell through there that fucked on Cena's heel turn.

On the other side though, what the fuck was supposed to be so great about Tony Khan's booking? Keeping the Death Riders storyline going well after it's ran its course? Putting the belt back on Hangman and tanking the ratings again? THEN putting the belt back on MJF, which already failed the first time? It was a year of rehashed, unmemorable bullshit.
>>
>>19905156
>Critically acclaimed
>Draws zero dimes
This kind of stuff makes me not want to watch wrestling.
>>
>>19905253
>inferior product
>record profits
>AEW has never turned a profit
>AEW TV ratings and attendance continues to sink
Something doesn't add up here.
>>
>>19905241
NXT was voted worst show because all the talent has left and the new ones are given garbage packages to work with. Femi was holding it together and clearly was done with NXT by mid last year
>>
>>19905251
It’s not the Meltzer Awards, friend. It’s the Wrestler Observer Newsletter Awards, Wrestler Observer Newsletter being one of the longest running pro wrestling publications.
>>
How can AEW be so great if half their roster from when they started is in WWE now?
>>
>>19905266
Yeah, and I'm sure it has NOTHING to do with Ricky Starks debuting in NXT in early 2025, and the "Tony Fumbled" chants that resulted. That one moment mind raped so many AEW marks.
>>
>>19905274
Imagine paying $14.99 a month for an autistic, senile weeb to email you shit he made up.

It absolutely is on them for not having a plan b with Dwayne’s history of flaking.

Do you think NBA 2k and CoD are the best games yearly? Are fast and furious or capeshit the best films? Brainless take bro
>>
>>19905264
It’s okay, buddy. Maybe you’ll get it someday. I believe in you.
>>
are e-drones going to spend the entire year crying about this or are they just going to admit AEW was better in 2025 and move the fuck on?

Ricky "saints" lol. Cope chants by dronies then got fumbled even harder but the fed had to hard push because Femi was leaving. Yeah perfect example of the shit booking.
>>
>>19905156
>The WON awards gaslighting Tony into thinking he's doing good so he can continue to do the wrong things.

I'll never complain about AEW winning all categories because it just means they will continue to be a train wreck forever.
>>
>>19905315
Again, what was better about AEW in 2025? Focusing the whole year on putting the belt back on Hangtard and watching the ratings tank? Watching MJF bent over, presenting his asshole to Bandido for a solid 5 minutes?
>>
>>19905255
WON subscribers are leftoids, so they support the mere idea of AEW. The actual quality of the product (shit) is incidental.
>>
>>19905329
Another toy escaped Tony's toybox and you spent a year bitching and seething, just like Mariah May.
>>
>>19905331
week to week booking
matches
ppvs
all far superior to the shit WWE churned out, as evidenced by the awards
>>
>>19905341
>as evidenced by the awards
Again, the awards voted on by "Fed Bad," biased contrarians. This is just like you retards parading around CageMatch ratings. Meanwhile AEW's attendance and TV ratings are in the toilet because it's a show aimed at two people (Tony Khan and Dave Meltzer).
>>
>>19905349
if that was true, AEW would sweep every year. WWE won most in 2023 and 2024 when it was actually somewhat interesting. glad to know you are in fact going to be melting down over this for the whole year and not just accepting it and moving on like a normal functioning adult.
>>
>>19905341
None of that was good, from either company. They should have just cancelled the awards for 2025.
>>
>>19905340
>"STOP NOTICING WHEN NXT FUMBLES AEW TALENT"
Holy shit you dont actually think Blake Monroe is booked well right? Almost universally agreed that its been a wet fart at best
>>
>>19905349
why did WWE win most awards the previous 2 years?
>>
>>19905376
Jesus Christ, how are you retards still seething like this? Get a life.

>>19905412
Do you always resort to "seething" when you have nothing to add to a discussion? It makes it clear you can't refute the points about how shit NXT has been for a year now.
>"b-b but remember how popular they were when they arrived"
Yeah when they came in with heat from a well booked company.
>>
>>19905156

>bringing back lesnar
Reminder AEW employs Taz and brought in convicted rapist Mike Tyson.
>>
>>19905446
yes and hhh had the office next to the sex dungeon room vince kept janel grant. he doesn't win either because it's not a "promotional tactic" ya illiterate pinhead.
>>
>>19905446
The whole Disgusting Promotional Tactic award category has just been a Fed Bad bitchfest ever since the Monday Night Wars. It's something Meltzer should have ended in 2001, but of course he never did because he's a gossip queen that lives off drama like a homosexual.

The entire point of AEW is console wars. AEW fans for the most part hate WWE more than they like AEW. It's just so offputting to me.
>>
>>19905156
Probably by paying off Dave.
Or even better, propping up their own "neutral" award show.

Don Callis family.

Tony Cunt is the biggest fucking mark on planet Earth

for like half the year everyone hated him , his gimmick , his faction and keeping the title off screen for so long that they where begging for it to end.

>Wrestled 2 matches in 2025
kek, fuck off, Brock did nothing last year

Who started this meme that Jon Moxley is good?
>>
>>19905417
"award season" and it's just an online poll for the sweatiest and nastiest of marks
>>
>>19906289
Objectively drew more than moxley
>>
Nothing sums up the state of pro-wrestling better than Jon Moxley being the best brawler. The guy literally cannot throw a decent looking strike and he's the best brawler.
>>
>>19906302
It's actually appropriate because it's the "Bruiser Brody memorial" award and he wasn't even the best brawler in his own tag team.
>>
>>19906301
>Wrestlepalooza
Didn't Main event, didn't draw

Awards are useless, unless you win.
>>
>>19905241
>The entire Worst Promotional Tactic
I think the most insufferable aspect of that award is the fact that no matter what happens to any company throughout the year, unless WWE themselves do something that Dave specifically notes is horrible, "WWE/TKO/UFC relationship with Saudi Arabia" will win every year, up until the point where the Saudi PIF decides to throw a few tens of millions of dollars in AEW's direction and Tony graciously accepts, at which point I fully expect the option to disappear off the rankings entirely and the de-facto winner will become "WWE/TKO/UFC relationship with Donald Trump/Republican Party"
>>
>>19906397
Well brock being employed somehow won this year, even though he did nothing wrong.
>>
>>19905156
Dickhead Dave lost his mind many years ago, he has become completely insufferable and his dirt sheet has become the ramblings of a total nutcase!

>The Daveys got 'em fuming again
Remember, every accusation is a confession. WWE fans are thin skinned weenies
>>
>>19906293
He's always near the top of the card and wins a million titles. It's easy to trick retard fans into thinking that means he's shoot good.

>All in

Brock drew more than Moxley, your cope is retarded and you are a delusional fuckwad who think's whatever Meltzer says is the reality of the wrestling world but he caters to about 25% of the overall wrestling fandom and you all need to accept that. His awards are for his cult and what they like, nothing more. They don't mean shit to the people buying tickets to WWE events.
>>
>>19906398
We don't even know that Janel Grant is a real person and yet libtards are mad about Lesnar supposedly pissing on her face. Also, if she was real, she was fucking 40 and had complete agency. She chose to be a whore until the money stopped flowing.
>>
>>19905156
Is this what BT is trying to slide?
>>
>>19907968
The results were duly roasted this morning. We've moved on.
>>
>>19905241
You’re right but it’s a trash award but AEW was pretty clearly the better product all around this year.
>>
>>19908051
Seems like you haven't
>>
>>19906690
Trev ignored this post like it was his shower. The AEW cult really doesn't like reality checks
>>
>>19905156
Why did they leave out their win for Worst Feud of the Year?
