I usually think the AEW PPVs are pretty good, but I can't really bother with the weekly TV show. The recent PPV had a great Fatal 4-way for the title but I just couldn't get into anything else they were doing.

Maybe Tony was a big ECW fan but I don't get why every other match has to be some silly hardcore stipulation. I'm fine with a hardcore match to blow off a big feud, but AEW just has them to have them. There is nothing special about it anymore and almost no one in the company knows how to sell these days.

I also don't get why you still have guys like Jeff Jarrett in title matches on major PPVs. If you want him backstage helping or putting guys over on TV, fine. But out of all the talented tag teams you have in the company you're using him in a match? Come on. Same goes for the Hardys and a few others. I think Christian is good at what he is but I also don't need him in title matches either.

Just a really weird promotion.
