Yeah but AEW needs to have longer reigns at the start to build credibility in the belt

It would have spared us from that horrible WM 34 match and Summerslam 18 match.

AEW also just doesnt do hotshot title reigns outside ONCE i think with the TNT belt and that was an outlier

Braun should have been the one to beat Lesnar and not Reigns.
That. That's what I've been saying for years. They actually did have Braun destroy Lesnar for a bit, but who knows what happened backstage afterwards.

the rumors at the time is that they thought he was too immature or some bs?

WWE is trying to relive the glory days by bringing in old wrestlers to wrestler again, Goldberg taking down the fiend was a joke. Also paying these guys millions to wrestle once a year is bad as well. They keep forgetting that in the attitude era they didn't bring in old wrestlers to ply for the belt, they used the actual talent to fight for it

Also the decision to have Braun lose to one F-5 was dumb ass fuck decision at No Mercy 2017.
