NXT is so much better than Raw or Smackdown. Storylines that make sense and move along nicely, interesting characters, and more of an old-school feel. NXT is the best wrestling show I can find lately. Some AEW stuff is really growing on me, but Omega as champ isn’t one of them. Really can’t get into Omega, the Bucks or Cody at all. Feels like their real demo is NJPW fans from several years ago. What I like about AEW is that it has a bit of a UFC feel to it where wrestlers may only fight once a month, or have long hiatuses. I actually like that since they have such a monster roster. It gives the fed a grittier and more realistic feel. I still prefer the overall talent in WWE. They obviously have a ton of awesome wrestlers. But overall WAY too many titles for any of them to mean anything. And WAY too many wrestlers in general. For some reason the larger roster with more infrequent matches works for AEW, but doesn’t for WWE. Not sure why that is but WWE could cut 50 + wrestlers today and nobody would notice. WWE ppvs tend to deliver. It’s a much better show when they cut out all the promos and just wrestle. AEW ppvs all seem like more hype than actually delivering so far. I feel bad for impact who is obviously getting the short end of the stick w that AEW deal. From best I can tell they are barely acknowledged on Dynamite. NXT has the most realistic feel, best matches and the best look. The feuds are intense and have really good build up. Like AEW, they also have a touch of that UFC feel. Very little to complain about when watching NXT.

I was gonna comment but Rob crushed it in every way. I think he got every part of my current feelings from AEW to WWE.
I like MLW as well but there new announcer sucks lol.

It's got the same camerawork, same rehearsed entrances, same rehearsed promos, same in-ring style dependent on MOVEZ and making boo boo faces for the camera, the same style of announcing, the same style of storytelling, same GM shtick that got old like 15 years ago, same type of shitty characters you'd find on the main roster (Dexter Lumis, looking squarely at you). There's really nothing "old school" about it. It feels exactly like WWE has felt since I was a kid. It's really not that different from the main roster shows at this point. I'm getting a small notion that you don't like it that much, LOL. All good my man. Different strokes for different folks.
