Yeah. That’s a good starting point. I think it all changed there.

Was also Sting's debut too and that run ended up being their biggest success in Tony's opinion and I'm inclined to agree

I think that’s also when Tony said he took the reins of creative.

There’s nothing wrong with criticism it for some reason if you have creative criticism about AEW(on here or anywhere else on the internet) the fan base will attack you like you want the company to die.
That's almost a fair point... if there just were actual "creative criticism" in the very post that started this whole debate, which there is none.

Opposite site, same sentiment behind the "criticism", really.

The Christian and Omega rivalry for both AEW and Impact titles was awesome. First rampage title change was nuts.

From December 2020 through the rest of 2021 was my favorite time for AEW, as well as some of 2022.

peak was the year long kenny run
That’s what most are saying. That started it and I’d say Hangman’s run is also part of it. It ends at double or nothing in 2022.

My peak was the hanger build and title win personally
That’s part of my peak. It starts before that, but I do think that’s the zenith of the peak. I think that was AEW’s greatest story. From the moment omega won the belt, AEW was basically painting the seeds for it to end this way and it helps that I saw hangman win the belt from Omega live.

The omega and Hangman title reigns combined are the start and end of my peak.

Punk coming in was my peak time as an AEW fan.

The Hangman story with him finally winning the title was the best story ever told in AEW imo. I mean no disrespect, but nothing has ever come close to it in my opinion.

I agree but like I’m biased
And I’d say the Hanger Swerve saga might be the second best
