AEW is only a year and a half old and there have already been some amazing matches. With great storylines but with massive long term storylines, come some setbacks. The long storylines do stop some big matches happening. Although the build feels amazing when we get to actually see the match.
It feels like the rating could drop due to the lack of big matches at some points. The big matches should really be in a PPV but after three months between each PPV. It feels like at the moment, AEW is at its worst when we can’t see a PPV in sight. Even though they do usually start the story early, you’d have to wait 3 month or so for the match to take place.
Injury could alway stop the story…
Then there’s the chance of injury leading up to the big match. This has happened with Jon Moxley Vs. Kenny Omega. The match that ended up happening was epic down the line depending on who you talk to. What if the injury was worse and we would have to wait 6-9 month for the match to take place.
Injury in wrestling is alway bad but with the long time storylines, it could be even worse. The AEW wrestling schedule does help though with less injury in the company due to less demanding schedule of once or twice a week.
What if their young talent leaves?
Then there are big ones AEW are slowly working on their young talent to become true Legends of industry like Jungle Boy and MJF. We don’t know how AEW are handling contracts at the moment, we haven’t had one run out. There’s the fact that AEW pours all their time into younger wrestlers then there’s the fear of their contract running out and they leave.
This is where a long story could really hit back at them. The only way this might not happen is loyalty to the brand. It feels like AEW has a more family atmosphere and a lot of wrestlers may stay in AEW due to this. If not though, it could hurt AEW massively in the future.
