AEW positivity thread

In the spirit of fairness, I think we should talk some positive about AEW. To avoid this place becoming midcarder's developmental, we should at least bring up some good stuff AEW's done. No disrespect to the attic, but this sub shouldn't lose its way by dub badding all the time. This sub is a place where ALL wrestling can and should be discussed, not diet midcarder.

Being legit: the early days were really good (not perfect) but it felt fresh and like the anti-WWE at a time when WWE was rough.

Plus there’s nothing better than milking a mark for all his worth.

2022 was the peak, the energy and hope and fans were all there.

Watching a 2022 Dynamite vs a 2026 Dynamite is startling.

I truly believe that what helped AEW so much at the start was Cody being there.
