AEW has certainly come a long way since its inception back in 2019. This has the most to do with its overall change in tone as well as improvement in their in-ring product.
However, with Triple H being in charge of WWE Creative since July, the company has gone through a lot of positive changes as well. In fact, it has come to a point that many prefer WWE over AEW now.
While speaking on a recent episode of Superstar Crossover, WWE Hall Of Famer Road Dogg talked about WWE and AEW’s current products. He claimed that WWE has stronger PPVs now.
“We just booked a mixed card where both brands are on like a super card. Every match had a great talent. I thought ‘Man, what a freaking show.'”
On top of that stack is The Bloodline and Sami Zayn, Sami and Roman in some of those backstages were priceless. And I mean award-winning nominations. I just think there’s some magic there. And it’s commonplace for me to say ‘Well this company’s the best and the other company’s not’ but their television show is not fluid. Things don’t connect. And when I watch now I will admit three hours on Raw used to be a challenge. But for the last three months it’s been a joy to watch and a breeze to get through.”
We will have to wait and see whether AEW will be able to improve their product in order to compete with WWE or not. Either way, the pro wrestling world will eventually have an answer.
