AEW VS WWE: A CATEGORICAL RANKING

 

 

PRODUCTION QUALITY:

-WWE IS LIKE WATCHING A HIGH BUDGET CINEMA EVERY EPISODE.  AEW JUST DOES NOT SEEM TO GET THE LIGHTING RIGHT. 

WWE WINS THIS CATEGORY AND IT IS NOT EVEN CLOSE

WRESTLING STYLE:

-AEW HAS AN AVERAGE FASTER PACE, WHILE WWE SOMETIMES SEEMS LIKE SLOW MOTION.

AEW WINS

BELTS:

-BOTH COMPANIES HAVE A NUMBER OF BELTS, ALONG WITH SISTER COMPANIES ROH AND NXT.  HISTORICALLY WWE BELTS ARE HELD LONGER, MEAN MORE, AND LOOK COOLER.

WWE WINS

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT:

-WWE GIMMICKS ARE USUALLY BETTER.  AEW HAS A MUCH LARGER ROSTER AND HAS ITS SHARE OF INTERESTING CHARACTERS.

TIE

FEMALE WRESTLERS:

-THE WWE HAS SO MANY WOMEN WITH SO MUCH PERSONALITY.  AEW IS DRAB.

WWE IN A LANDSIDE

TAG TEAM WRESTLING:

-THE USOS HAVE BECOME TIRESOME AND HAVE HELD THE BELTS FOR FAR TOO LONG.  THERE IS JUST NOT ENOUGH TALENT TO CHOOSE FROM IN WWE.  AEW HAS THE BEST TAG TEAM IN THE WORLD WITH THE BUCKS, PLUS THEY HAVE TRIOS TITLES WITH A TON OF STABLES.

AEW IN A LANDSIDE

STAGES:

WWE HAS ALWAYS HAD A BETTER ENTRANCE WAY AND BETTER PYRO. AEW HAS MADE HEADWAY SWITCHING TO BIG SCREENS FROM THE TWO TUBE CODY ANOINTMENT, BUT WILL NEVER COMPARE TO WWE.

WWE IN A LANDSLIDE 

RINGS: 

THE WWE RING HAS A LOT CLEANER LOOK.  THE AEW RING OFTEN HAS ADVERTISING ON THE MAT.  THE ORIGINIAL WWF RING IS THE GREATEST.

WWE WINS

CAGES: 

AEW'S CAGE IS MUCH LARGER THAN A TYPICAL WWE OPEN TOP CAGE.  BOTH HAVE THE SAME WAR GAMES CAGES.  THE HELL IN A CELL IS THE BIGGEST, BUT IT HAS A TOP COVERING.  WWE HAS MADE THE HELL IN A CELL INTERESTING WITH THE TOP BEING USED FOR MANY HUGE SPOTS.

WWE WINS

TELEVISION SHOWS:

-WWE KEEPS IT COOL WITH 2 SET SHOWS A WEEK, PLUS AN EXTRA 2 HOURS OF NXT.  RAW IS WAY TOO LONG AND NEEDS TO GO BACK TO 2 HOURS.  AEW SOMETIMES FEELS WATERED DOWN WITH TOO MUCH INTERNET PRODUCT THAT GOES UNWATCHED.  IT IS HARD TO WATCH RAMPAGE AFTER A 2 HOUR SMACKDOWN.

TIE

PAY-PER-VIEWS:

-WWE PREMIUM LIVE EVENTS, BUT SOMETIMES RUN A LITTLE LONG.  AEW HAS FEWER EVENTS, SO THEY MEAN MORE. YET WWE STILL HAS THE GREATEST SHOW OF THEM ALL AND A NICE CORE OF RUMBLE, SUMMERSLAM, AND SURVIVOR SERIES WHICH DATE BACK TO THE EARLY 80'S.

WWE WINS

PROMOS:

-MJF vs WHO? WWE HAS A NUMBER OF WRESTLERS CAPABLE OF HANDLING THE MIC AND TWO CEOS WHO HAVE A MUCH STRONGER PRESENCE THAN TONY KHAN.  PAUL HEYMAN IS THE GREATEST PROMOTIONAL MANAGER.

TIE

SO WHO WINS IN THE END?

TIE! THEY BOTH KICK ASS
