I mean they have great PPV buys, sell out shows, and do things only WCW and WWE has done in America. :toomanykobes
PPV buys are an old way to look at interest. Sell out shows in tiny arenas don't really count. And what "things?"

And the fact they get great PPV buys in this day and age is actually impressive since it’s an old way to look at it. PPV is pretty dead and they do great PPV numbers

I think AEW is fine. The matches are fun, and its nostalgic. Though, I hesitate to call a promotion that throws money at disgruntled talent of the top guy a major promotion

how many people in america watch njpw? wwe is a global business. while njpw may be major in japan, they aren't in america (where most of the viewership is), or worldwide
