You yourself wrote the difference
WCW 1998
>young guys couldn't do anything in that company

AEW 2019
>Young wrestlers will feud with Jericho for the title to gain popularity off him

Jericho is a complete carny what do you expect. It's all about getting yours

Its pretty clear Cody is booking himself as the Hogan beating every heel till hes eventually champ

hey chris

sup, how am I wrong?

because jobbing to a fat 50 year old doesn't get people over

The top stars in WCW refused to work with young Jericho, top star Jericho literally had a main event match with young Page last night

>opening up the debut episode of AEW on TNT (a national network with a larger reach than the one RAM is on) with an indie literal fucking who nobody ever fucking heard of as your inaugural world champ instead of Chris Jericho, the absolute biggest name in the company who people are going to recognize from the biggest wrestling company on the planet
>believe this is going to get casuals to watch

why are smarks such idiots?

It will in the fucking rematch, holy shit.

People would be ripping on Page if he had won last night as well. "Literal who?!" "Who is this jobber as champion?" etc.

I love and hate this fucking place, but its getting so tiring hear fucking 27 year old fuckers complaining online about how their fake sport isnt being booked in a way they want, when they dont even actually have an ideal outcome. THey just want to complain. Fuck off already

Page is a shitter tho

>opening up TNA with a literal fat samoan jobber and a manlet redneck who nobody ever fucking heard of as your world champ instead of Sting vs Hulk Hogan, the absolute biggest names in the company who people are going to recognise from the biggest wrestling companies on the planet
>believe this is going to get casuals to watch

When he has the belt for a year then you can talk, he's clearly just a transition champ to whoever they plan on making the top guy of the company

I’m 24 and I’m a jericholic

>being legitimately retarded

That doesn't matter at all to the mark fanbase apparently. All that matters is that he is 'young' so he automatically deserves the world title belt on that basis alone

Exactly! Fucking thisssss.

If in a year hes still champ, then they are being hypocritical. Even if they have him lose and win it back, that would be even worse (and more like WWE)

RIght now they should have the benefit of the doubt, where we can assume that they are building this to something. He's a big name, and the 1st, not the 68th who is hot potatoeing the belt with Sef and Roman. The 1st.

Even has the weight belt and all. He’s stealing the gimmick to a t

You Twitter people are the absolute worst; there's a world of difference between those timelines. New company wants to get over, using the platform Y2J built for himself over a grand career, is that not clear enough?

>established company at its peak vs brand new company
Ok retard

The absolute cope hahahaha!!!

TNA's first champion was Ken Shamrock you fucking retard.

You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

the absolute cope of aedrones

Jericho is the most famous wrestler they have, he is going to put their best wrestler (Omega) over as champion and then there will be a feud with their second most famous, Moxley.

It's not a massively clever strategy but it's fairly sensible.

Jericho has became Scott Hall literally

And all the while, Page is going to be built up more and more. He will probably feud with whoever Kenny previously feuded with, to keep momentum going.

Exactly. With hindsight we see Joe and AJ could have led that company to great heights but every time they got the ball and took a few steps, it was taken and given to the newest WWE release. And we see how that ended. AEW apparently thinks history won’t apply to them.

Hi Chris

it would have been better if page's finisher was protected, but you're right

AEW is incapable of "passing thee title around grandpas", unless Jericho drops the belt to Goldust or something.
