Dude you started with ":-/ People jump on me if I breathe wrong in AEW's direction, but it took two posts to turn this into an AEW vs WWE thing" so its hard to see it as even keeled. Like I said, my comment was meant as an overall observation of how many (especially on twitter and wrestling sites) would say no one wants a show heavily focused on wrestling and with longterm storytelling have now changed their tone. I can list countless people (again from twitter and elsewhere) who claimed "casuals" don't like this, but have done a complete about-face now that the WWE are going in that direction. Hell even bringing Gargano back has been very positively received, a guy many of these people would have refereed to as a "vanilla midget" only weeks ago. I was just pointing out the hypocrisy (which all fanboys partake in to be fair). You opening response to me definitely came across as if my original comment bothered you despite the fact I was responding to someone else who brought up AEW. Seriously, I would not have brought it up if I didn't see someone else point out how the " WWE is acting more like AEW with its storytelling and interwoven plots and more mature style." I mean good lord my comment was a RESPONSE to this comment. I wasn't trying to start an AEW vs. WWE war, just agreeing with someone else's comment and giving an opinion after. |
If you see that comment as too over the top, you and I have a very different definition of even keeled.
I haven't seen any significant people claiming long term storytelling was a bad thing. I'm sure there's someone in the vast world of social media saying something like that, but at best it's a vocal minority. I have seen people saying that AEW's style of storytelling is not good and not going to appeal to casuals. Happy to explain the difference, or happy to drop it. Up to you.
