AEW needs better story writing to get better ratings and no I do not mean like WWE. I mean like AEW when Cody feuded with MJF, Brodie, and Dustin. When Kenny had the belt, when Moxley was chasing the belt, those were all compelling TV. Good to great matches only draw so much.

I think they should give Ospreay a vicious, giant heel challenger so he can convey that babyface fire he has right now in a way the audience will have to tune in. The Bucks need to be more hateable and not just versions of themselves that idiot twitter marks think they are, that�s getting heat with people who don�t watch. Have them fire someone beloved for bullshit reasons or something.

I love Swerve but he�s missing something too and it�s not his promos or his ring work, his story still feels like wrestling to wrestle and not much else, despite their attempts to add to his chase.

I really wish right now Danielson was a monster heel champion on top because that�d solve a lot of things, he takes too many loving losses in title matches it�s a waste of him, if he wants to lose tell him no, he�s the best wrestler alive and a great heel, make him cook.

danielson is deliberately winding down and trying to get out, the last thing he probably wants is a demanding title run. i disagree with the swerve thing entirely, his goals and journey have been very clearly communicated by him and the company, he's been on this world championship chase for 6+ months now still trying to get a clean 1 on 1 shot with the champ. the only thing i think you could have done to really add some spice to it and extend it longer is probably have had Hanger win it and have him be the one to drop it to swerve but that would only take away from Joe's reign.

Sign Acey Romero.

Strap him up (If physically possible).

Have him squash and then eat every babyface like that elisode of power rangers where the frog eats all the rangers except the coward blue one who no one ever wanted to pretend to be when playing power rangers. this ranger can be played by a nerd bastard like page, cole, danhausen, uno.

Acey eats them too.

Ends in a battle royale taking place inside Acey Romero where you gotta throw your opponent out of his rear end until one is left standing and does a taunt so hard it explodes Acey.

Dynamite draws 5-9 billion viewers, some of which seem to be coming from off world.

Knowledge of other marks on other worlds unite earth and we have 1000 years of peace.

he was in the battle royal at All In.

Survivor 4.72mil viewers and a 7.0 demo hit. AEW was still ranked 3 for cable which is very strong, behind 2 nba games as nba nears the playoffs, but they are head to head against a killer on network tv thats slicing into all cable demo numbers.

aew scores streaming deal with telavisa's streaming platform ViX. probably speaks pretty well to the cmll partnership with that being cmll's tv partner.

short version of the press release: all archives of Dark and Dark Elevation, Dynamite, Rampage, Collision, and old PPVs are available on demand on the app. all ppvs will be added to On Demand 30 days after airing.

It's been said before, but imagine telling someone in 2019 that all of these wrestlers would be relevant to AEW in five years.

i would have believed it instantly.
