AEW, My Opinion.




AEW, My Opinion.

Whilst this blog is intended to focus on less popular Indy scenes I feel that it's important for us to cover what could possibly become the most popular wrestling company in the world. Whilst I feel that a lot could go wrong with the company, if it focuses on delivering unique, high quality content it may be able to resist the forces that  will hold it back. 

One fear I have about AEW is that it won't appeal to casual WWE fans or even people that don't watch wrestling. To most people the main selling point of AEW is the fact that Cody and the Young Bucks are running the company. Whilst you could say that these are the early days of the company and that they haven't had their first show even and so it is impossible to say whether it will be able to draw in viewers from WWE and make new wrestling fans out of nowhere. I believe that whilst AEW might be able to draw new people to wrestling it seems it'll mostly just take viewers from WWE and other companies.

Whilst the idea of having very well payed wrestlers seems great and it'll lead to happier wrestlers this plan may cause the company severe money based issues. Unless if AEW is somehow the most successful wrestling company ever I believe that the company will suffer losses for a while until its able to build up a bigger name. However this could be countered by a deal with a large Tv channel or deals with toy and video game companies. I feel that money wise AEW is going too far too fast and I fear that this will end up harming the company.

On a more positive side I believe that AEW will bring in a new era for wrestling where we'll see more companies rise to the level of WWE. This increase in competition might harm certain companies but it is guaranteed to lead to more high quality content for the viewers. Companies like WWE and NJPW need to firstly book certain wrestlers better but also try to draw viewers in by delivering some of the best wrestling you can see so as to compete with the threat posed by AEW. My fear with this though is that less popular companies will die out due to their viewers being drawn away by these bigger companies.

Overall I feel that whilst AEW is likely to deliver good quality wrestling I feel certain factors will hold it back and these factors could potentially cause it to have to restructure. I fear that a restructure might involve a decrease in payment for talent and restrictions on talent especially in the creative department. If the company restructures like this I fear that certain talent will leave and maybe those who want leave WWE for AEW might need to keep this in mind and if they do move to AEW they may later leave in case of a restructure. There's a reason for few companies on the scale AEW is trying to reach that allow for their talent to have creative control and this is because it can lead to issues with booking and most importantly it's appeal to investors.

Neville in ring return, WWE Super Show Down, WWE working with WXW and more. WoWB 13

World of Wrestling Blog 13 Yesterday Neville made his wrestling return by appearing at at the first day of the Dragon Gate Gate. of Victory shows. He returned to join the group Red after the company was teasing a big return on the build up to the show. Whist some questions are yet to be answered one very important question has yet to be answered, why is Dragon Gate Wrestling ubsessed with gates. Anyway it seems that DGPW doesn't have exclusive contracts so it is possible for him to work for companies like Progress and ROH however I don't think that we will see him with NJPW due to it being a rival to DGPW.        On Sunday WWE will be going to Australia for Super Show Down, the biggest WWE show in Australia ever. Whilst the show has a generous amount of trow away matches there are some ones to watch out for. The main draw to the show is the Undertaker vs Triple H with Kane and Michaels on the side, this match needs has become more interesting with the rumours of DX vs The

How heels should be done in wrestling

How Heels Should Be Done In Wrestling  Heels are the backbone of Wrestling and are arguably some of the best characters the buisness has to offer. Tommaso Ciampa, Triple H and Mr McMahon are some of the best I. WWE but what made them so good. The key is the three main stages of being a heel and each one is necessary for a heel to be the most hateable and annoying person ever. The Introduction: Whether it be a debut or a heel turn, the next introduction of a heel character is very important. The basics for the introduction of a heel character is to do something absolutely horrible detestable and then either cut a promo or leave and start ranting on social media. The promo should center around why you did what you did and must feature you saying that the crowd should have expected this. This paired with great acting really makes hate you and whilst the promo formula can be modified it should be modified with caution as for example saying you did for the crowd and make it seem like

ROH star backstage at Raw, ROH star Debuts on NXT, Tyler Breeze going to NXT, NXT UK Takeover, Huge European star to NXT and more

World of Wrestling Blog 19 At this weeks Raw, ROH star Silas Young was spotted backstage. Whilst I'm not familiar with his work from what I've seen he's a very WWE style wrestler as in he sort of reminds me of Triple H for some reason. He also seems to be good on the mic and could be a good addition to the roster but I hope he starts off on NXT as I feel that this is best way to get him a fanbase in WWE. I recommend looking at his match with ACH on YouTube as whilst it isn't the best match you'll ever see I feel it's a good introduction.        Onto another ROH star being joining WWE, Punishment Martinez made his debut on NXT at the recent tapings. On his debut he faced Matt Riddle and after the match Riddle was attacked by Khasius Ohno. Whilst ,like Young , I'm quite unfamiliar with his work and I think seeing him on NXT would be a good introduction to him.       Talking about the recent NXT tapings, Tyler Breeze returned to the place that made him.
