Yup, WWE is acting more like AEW with its storytelling and interwoven plots and more mature style.

Or, you know, like NXT was for years there.

This is the thing that struck me, and I glad I'm not alone in seeing it. WWE is now booking and storytelling very similar to AEW, even including a higher emphasis on longer match times per show.

I can't help but find it funny how the people who crapped on AEW (on twitter, wrestling sites, and elsewhere) for this, claiming casuals don't want this in a wrestling show, are now loving it being done in the WWE. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying the WWE should not improve their product, but I always find the fanboy hypocrisy hilarious.

Regardless if this can lead to a stronger industry, something close to what we saw during the Monday Night Wars, great. Competition is good in any industry.
