There's still some aspects of WWE that I love, I mean CM Punk is my favorite wrestler
understandable. I don't like Punk in the slightest anymore but it has nothing to do with his on screen character. but i also understand why he is a lot of peoples favorites and remain so, especially if you had no vested interest in aew's success

Yeah, I try to stay as self aware as possible. The last thing I wanna do as a wrestling fan is be bitter. I feel like there's already a bunch of negativity in the IWC already and I don't wanna add to it, especially bc I've never been a negative person. I like to be as fair as possible.

Honestly, that's fair. I personally like him as a wrestler and person but I can 100% see why he's so divisive.

i was a nasty jerk for a long time because i was too into it myself, and I agree shit is too negative in general. it's much healthier to talk about the things you love and ignore the things you do not

Used to be. Currently, WWE hasn't been impressing me in the slightest recently so I barely watch anymore. I've watched a tiny bit of AEW and TNA but that's it. Now I just have NJPW, but I don't wanna fall out of love with the sport so that's been my driving force to joining
Well if you ever wanna watch more AEW, you're always welcomed to join the Live Discussions each and every week. Any questions you have, most of us will be happy to answer

I agree 100%. I'm happy to be on this forum bc it really does seem like the best of the IWC gathers here. Everyone's been really nice.

See I felt the same, loved his return in aew, hated his exit, got too personal and hated him, got over it, but then then saudi and corporate boot licking stuff just...it's hard for me to respect him anymore, especially as a fan of punk rock and the punk rock lifestyle. he just kind of feels like a phony to me and it's ruined the fantasy for me if that makes sense? sorry to rant lol, trying to state my opinion in a respectful and non attacking manner lol

With some of the storylines this year, idk if I could say right now WWE has better ones. At first Triple H was doing pretty good however

see for me I don't think WWE's storylines are overly great or impressive, and I have liked some of the aew storylines a lot this year. I would like MORE good storylines in both
