This isn't a good tone at all if he wants to get people who love good wrestling regardless of brand to feel goodwill toward WWE's strengths and its vocal leader. "Buddy"? "Little guy"? Disappointing and character defining condescension. This is heel Corbin promo content. :-/

Saying that fans complaining about bad WWE TV shows is unfair because it's hard to create TV each week is ridiculous. WWE is raking in record money and they could spend it to expand writing team. Upset fans should be applauded for taking time to provide feedback, not scolded.

AEW couldn't ask for any better publicity, and WWE couldn't be any more short-sighted, then to continue to force fans to remove AEW t-shirts. This makes WWE the petty bad guys in this, and they shouldn't underestimate how much that actually costs them in goodwill with fans.
