Horrible years to be a wrestling fan. I use to at least keep up with it over the years if i didnt watch, but now not even that. Every since the started going to average looking Joes and making them stars it has got real bad.
It’s actually a pretty great time to be a wrestling fan.
WWE has been trash for years now because they haven’t had any reason to put out a good product.
AEW, while not perfect, is doing things the right way now. Consistently beating NXT in ratings and demo every Wednesday night is a great accomplishment for such a young company. Will they ever be on the level of raw or smack down? No, probably not. They don’t need to be though. Just having AEW pull in 700k-900k viewers every Wednesday will hopefully get wwe to try to put out a better product in the future. I can’t wait to watch Double or Nothing tomorrow. Moxley, Archer, Jericho, Matt Hardy, Cody, Omega, MJF, Shida, the list goes on. Plus we get to see Mike Tyson.
If you aren’t watching Dynamite every Wednesday, you’re missing out.
We also have NJPW, which is more accessible than ever now. They have some great matches and fantastic wrestlers over there. After watching Wrestle Kingdom 14 in January, I was hooked.
The indie scene was also making a big comeback before covid showed up. Lucha Underground was putting out some great matches before they got screwed out of a network deal. There’s a lot of great Japanese joshi promotions out there too. Stardom is fantastic and pumps out stars like nobodies business.
TL;DR
Right now is the best time to be a wrestling fan since the Monday night wars.
