Sorry, but AEW going more "NJPW Lite" with tournaments and stats is not gonna boost TV ratings and attendance, which is what they really need right now. Getting rid of storylines and focusing on matches will not draw in more viewers.I actually agree with this. I always called out AEW early on for going back on their original promise of being more sports based, especially when they basically became WWE Lite. I may actually watch the product if they do this.
Storylines in wrestling have always driven people to watch the matches.
All it does is cater to the hardcores who are already watching and going to the shows.
Hearing TK at the press conference rattle off the structure of this upcoming tournament just gave me a headache.
A "sports-based" wrestling promotion should resemble an updated Mid South type promotion
This must be an old pic, she's slimmed down since then. She still fine though.
