And even if you can watch without being distracted by the shittiness of the company in totality, you also have to deal with a really abrasive production style. I can only watch a couple WWE matches at a time because of that - especially NXT, with Booker T being easily the worst announcer in wrestling by a massive margin.

Collision Kevin Kelly is the worst announcer I’ve ever heard. At least Booker T occasionally says some absolutely insane poo poo that gets a laugh.

Kelly hasn't fully adjusted to working American TV after years of just doing his own thing; he's been improving, even if he's clearly the worst AEW announcer, I think he'll get more and more comfortable as time goes on.

Punch Tominaga having the same revelation that Kanda had earlier in the year that he can just wrestle good and have great matches.

+1 to all of these. Man, I need to watch more Dragongate. That main event was SO MUCH FUN. I'm also glad that Shun Skywalker is back from his tour of the indies. He's my favorite. (Watch these matches here.)

Misao's antics and setting her two rookies on Aja, good times.
