AEW has one merely ok show and suddenly it’s the end of everything. people, especially reddit brained folk, love their Brands and want any excuse to love Brands again and project the failure of the enemy of Brand. the sexual predator bad guy is gone and now Papa H, the best guy that we respect, is making the best wrestling show ever. well the sexual predator is back and H has been blatantly pathetic in how everything he's done shows he's a shithead bully that needs everyone to think he's cool but whatever one of the funniest parts of r/squaredcircle is their dedication to terms like Superstar and Premium Live Events because they love to feel like they're insiders and part of the Brand like how Marvel dipshits talk about Phase 4 of the MCU and poo poo.

Breaking incumbent brand loyalty can be tough and any sign of the incumbent improving (even if it's just smoke and mirrors) can bring people back

Just remembered Cody Rhodes went through a phase of wearing a plastic face mask and putting people in paper bags. Cody was always great

Remember Cody’s moustache? I liked the moustache. If he grows another moustache I hope it’s blonde.

Ariel is a huge loser goober who should just be completely ignored. Also the Bloodline is a great storyline, but anyone acting like the rest of WWE is on fire should be forced to watch the other 6.5 hours of WWE programming per week Clockwork Orange style until they break

Ariel Helwani is a goober and has always been a goober. Just because he parlayed his gooberness into getting hired by actual sports orgs doesn't make him any less goobery.

I'm half-shitposting here, but there is a large tendency here to downplay problems AEW has because it's Not WWE. Tony Khan is a billionaire, he doesn't need you cheerleading him.

People talk about AEW issues all the time. The difference is that their issues are minor and also the company has only been around for 4 years. There’s no such thing as a perfect wrestling show. It’s wrestling it’s going to be sloppy and weird at times. Wwe has been a near unwatchable show for two decades and they accidentally stumble into the first decent angle in ten years and people all suddenly ignore all the major issues in the company.

That post would read better if it wasn't quoting one where one of the WWE problems is that it's owned by a rapist and nothing in it defended AEW.

Hence why I said downplay. Every Dynamite is either a 10/10 or an 11/10 show, and any problems are 'wait and see' while people Always Bad performers who are not being used. I dunno, it rubs me the wrong way when people act like WWE Brand Loyalty is some unique phenomenon while engaging in literally the same behaviour with AEW here. Gumball Gumption posted:That post would read better if it wasn't quoting one where one of the WWE problems is that it's owned by a rapist and nothing in it defended AEW. Where did I defend WWE? Or are we 'what about-ing' things? Being a brand stan isn't just bad because Vince is a monster. Marvel also came up in that post, and I don't think Feige has covered up a murder or paid hush money.

Reads like a weird false equivalency for the point you're making. Saying wait and see is not quote:engaging in literally the same behaviour with AEW here. ^^^Ok, but it's pointing out how people use the WWE or marvel approved language and no one does that with AEW because it's not really a thing that they do.

AEW gets the wait and see treatment because they’ve earned the benefit of the doubt, and when you wait and see with AEW they usually end up giving the people what they wanted. Therefor keeping that trust from their audience.

Therefor keeping that trust from their audience. *shrug* I just feel like some of that benefit of the doubt has been exceeded and yet people still give it a pass. I still enjoy large bits of AEW, but there's definitely more cracks than I think people want to admit and it looks, to me, to be pretty much the same as a Marvel stan defending Phase 5 or whatever.

Nobody ever shuts the gently caress up about all the problems AEW has. You are reading a different forum. It is constant and pervasive.
