AEW is already better than WCW ever was. How did they even beat WWE when their booking and storyline was fucking basic dogshit. Seriously go watch a nitro from that period when they were beating RAW and it's just 2026 WWE. NWO was the same shit every week and dragged on for too long like the Bloodline is. Then you'll have a dimeless workrate flippy match just because and then their tag division was fucking putrid and completely forgotten. They honestly deserve to die.
Not better. I actually used to watch WCW where as I've never bothered to watch aew even once.
Put down the crack pipe

>>21372604WCW was hot for a reason when it was on top. Their cruiserweight matches were unlike anything seen in North America at that time. Their cruiserwights were phenomenal. The nWo offered a different take. Their was barely any cartoon gimmick character types. They were the first to air backstage segments and the like involving wrestlers. Police nearly got involved when Nash long darted Rey into the side of a production truck outback of the arena. nWo was fresh for a while, new and exciting. Their product was overall quite fucking good for a spell. They were deserved number 1 and that's something AEW will never achieve.And even when WCW was the shits, they never had wrestlers wrestling a pair of trousers in the ring. That's the distinction.
>>21372604WCW was actually able to pull top guys from WWF when they were still in their prime AEW has never done that even once.

>>21372604The only thing its better at is having a much better backer/owner that is going to make sure it continues on because he is a turbo autist superfan that will make sure his dream of owning a wrestling league doesn't die unless he gets completely bored or burnt out on wrestling. Ted Turner appreciated wrestling but he was never a fan or cared much. He worked Vince into a seething shoot though.AEW still has a way to go but at least we will probably see it go on for much longer.
AEW is not better than WCW, it's on par with the worst of 2001.WWE has just gotten worse.
>>21372611>Not better. I actually used to watch WCW where as I've never bothered to watch aew even once.
>>21372669Even TNA back in the day pulled a few WWE guys in their primes (Christian, Angle, Jeff Hardy arguably). Drug problems or not Angle and Jeff were still in their primes at that time.
>>21372604Now watch WWF from the same time period and it's very easy to see.WWF was unwatchable cartoon shit with squash matches, WCW offered a more adult alternative where edgy and charismatic larger than life characters were in hot and violent angles. It's really not very complicated.

>>21373265Turner wasn't an autistic turbofan but he was adamant that his channels should always air wrestling.
>>21372604They had more great matches in the first year alone than WCW had in its existence so duh
