I think it also helps that TK seems to very hands on and knowledgeable of business and has good relationship with people that matter. From what I heard, Dixie had some alterior motives for running TNA and it caused some disconnect
I think Dixie loved the business more than most people. She just was in over her head. She needed strong leadership she could trust. Which is why I don’t hate her as much some do when she brought in Hulk and Eric to do that for her in 2010.

All that aside, I’d still put up their middle years against AEW talent wise and whatnot.

Check out some 2007 shows. They were pretty fire back then like AEW is right now. Top to bottom to. I. Top you had Angle, Christian, Sting, Jeff Jarrett, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles and then you have the X Division guys holding up the undercard and they had both a great tag team scene and women when no one else cared about women’s wrestling.

The one thing I think original TNA did better was they had more original branded stuff. AEW needs more stuff they came up with. Stuff that sets them apart. TNA had the six sided ring and cage, the ultimate x match, king of the mountain match etc.

Who is criticizing blood?

I haven't seen anyone doing that, this is like Baker posting about "fake thumbtacks" another thing I haven't seen, either creating false narratives or searching for criticism.

Either way.....My only critique was overusing props that have been played out since the 00s. And they both seemed to have lost that chemistry they had in that death match a year ago(?)

Thunder Rosa says the Brock Lesnar mariachi band segment from 2004 was an attack on her culture. Strange how she has never mentioned it till now. She had plenty of opportunity to speak out about it, waited till now.

“I can tell you, I read about me bringing the Mariachi and I remember Brock Lesnar making fun of Eddie Guerrero with that. And that hurts because they were making fun of my culture before. And on Wednesday, I represented our culture properly; with honor and with respect. Because people were, ‘oh, Mariachi, fun. Like, let’s make fun of Mexicans.’

Oh it seems it was mentioned because she also did a mariachi entrance :lol wow it's amazing what context does to a story on the internet

If MJF thinks he’s going to become the highest paid wrestler, he won’t have that in WWE…. Because they aren’t wrestlers :jade

in all seriousness, I doubt WWE pays him more than all of their already acquired talent, and AEW probably won’t as well…. So he’s not going to become the highest paid wrestler in the industry. Big dreams, but that’s all they will be, dreams.
