Dave & Bryan were super negative on Bandido's look last night. Neither recognized the tribute. Which is fine, I get that. It wasn't meant to appeal to them. But to say he looked like less of a star is just wrong. From what I saw it got over huge w/ who it was meant to appeal to.

Every time AEW does a decent # (high 800K/in the 900K range) - the replies are full of the usual folks saying "hahahaha couldn't even hit a million." WWE used their machine & threw out everything they had except Roman but couldn't hit a million. Isn't that something...

AEW has a perception issue. Had it from day one. It isn't just to be accepted at the WWE level in the mainstream, it's also to be taken seriously within the pro wrestling bubble. Both continue to be equally hard to overcome. TNA/Impact was never able to do it.

I don't like the WWE/AEW or WWE/WCW comparison re AAA vs CMLL The former is/was very much a business rivalry. The latter has involved sabotage from within, death threats, deportation, guns, man on woman violence, the Mexican FBI & fathers disowning sons. These are not the same.

Sting in AEW is the prototype on how you use a part time legend. He's not the star. But he still gets his moments which pleases the crowd. And everything he does is to benefit someone newer. Of course it takes a very unselfish guy to make this work too so kudos to Sting.
