It’s a shame two veterans can’t behave in the locker room.
Hopefully our fearless EVPs Nicholas Lee and Mathew Ronjon Jackson can have a meeting with them

There’s a big line of older wrestlers or people who know the business that have expressed that the culture at aew is “we’re already amazing so you can’t teach me shit”. Meanwhile you have 40 something years olds like the young bucks, calling themselves the new generation when they’re at retirement age
40 is the new 30!
That long line is totally overblown as there’s just as many stories about talk about the relationships between some of the vets and some of the youngsters.
And in defense of some of those at AEW, it was setup to be something different to WWE, and the top of the card had plenty of folks who had got over and made money outside of the WWE. I think there’s a reasonable case that they might not have needed to learn as much. And any WWE vet coming in may well have needed to pick their brains; at least in the early days anyway.
Whatever aew set out to be, I just see mid 90s wcw all over again, there’s a glass ceiling and you won’t get through it unless you’re liked by a certain clique. And if you ever rise and take away any of their spotlight, you’re now their enemy. Anyways, I give it another year or two before aew is down to impact levels of viewers, if they can even keep a tv contract
Don’t hurt yourself moving those goal posts, buddy.
Aew and the bucks is like watching GLOW with guys. It’s just a bunch of clowns doing the fakest shit, while winking at the audience, and doing bad sketches. it’s cringe, it’s a garbage show. There’s really no reason for me to worry much about it.
The NWO was 1996.
And WCW 1996-1998 was possibly the best 3 year stretch of any professional wrestling company ever, and is certainly by far my favorite period ever.
So I sincerely hope that AEW becomes “mid 90s wcw all over again.”
Yeah exactly, and what happened to wcw? But actually I do take that back. Wcw was actual competition, they beat wwf for over 80 weeks and then for a solid couple years back and forth. Aew isn’t competition. Aew would like to think they are, but that’s like saying ECW was competition for wwf, it wasn’t.
