Acknowledge 2 different head skuplts on AEW Dr. Britt Baker DMD figure from Jazwares. Variant 1 is the very rare and short ship of the two. Variant 1 was discontinued after the final product was not acceptable. Some Variant 1's did make the market.

Thinking we can do without the women's division in general. It was a fun trend for awhile but now it carries far too much representation in the overall product.

It's time to be extremely picky about which guys to bring in, and while they still need to be picky about which women, the current women's roster is stronger than any one wwe roster, and really not that far off all three combined. Hell it might actually be better than all 3, I've kinda lost track of how many women keep getting fired there. Couple recent releases from both WWE and ROH that can come in and do big things. Rok-C especially. Just gotta find one good stardom contact expiring to make a splash there too. And get Maki Itoh a long term Visa for good measure.
But the guys just be extremely picky for who gets on the big shows. Dark roster is slowly evolving into its own roster largely seperate from dynamite and rampage, and that's not a bad thing. They can still work indies, get paid to be in aew, develop, and still get seen by more than they would in impact.

Oh I’d definitely take QT Marshall off tv. That dude shouldn’t be in a prominent role on a major wrestling program in 2021. Comes across as some carny on a no named indie in the mid west who thinks he’s some gift to pro wrestling despite hitting his ceiling a decade ago. Anyone that’s worked an indie knows the type. He looks like Alex Jones if he was a wrestler.

1) Purge the roster- There's just way too much dead weight or people that fans have no desire to watch. Only hire new talent that brings "something" to the table. Not just a random Indie body.
2) Stop with the tournaments- They're as poorly done as WWEs "championship contenders matches"
3) Hire wrestling minded creative team- They need to actually book story lines. Pro Wrestling has been 50% match 50% story line since its inception. If there's no meaning behind the match then the match isnt as good as Meltzer tries to tell you that it is and you're just watching gymnastics.
4) Fix your title designs & stop promoting other championships- From the inception Rhodes said "our titles are actually going to look good"..The world title is fantastic. The Tag titles are ok but the rest are complete garbage. TNT? TBS? Who thought that crap would be a good idea? How can anyone take a title named after the network they are on seriously?
Also, why should I take your championship serious if you tell me "this title from (insert company) is just as equal. Cant win the tag titles? Well heres the Impact or AAA titles. Here's are AEW champion but here he is losing the Impact title to a lesser competitor. The "forbidden door" is great. Rotate talent but you dont need other companies titles.

Unless pro wrestling began in like 1995 and literally only in America that ratio is way off.

He's a good hand. You'll always need guys like him, Scott Armstrong around the place. Granted QT is better as a babyface. As a heel I get the impression he could be pinned off a hiptoss.

I'd get rid of all the managers. It seems like every tag team or faction has one and it takes away from the group itself. Get rid of the managers, not everyone needs one.

Three hours of wrestling a week isn't enough for a roster this size and quality. Too many people have been poisoned by Raw's terrible 3rd hour, but AEW could pull it off. There are always a number of guys who don't get on tv because there's no time. Team Taz could/should be on TV every week. Ricky Starks, Brian Cage, Powerhouse Hobbs. Taz on the mic. There's never adequate time though. Hobbs should be a monster heel. Brian Cage looks a freak of nature. Ricky Starks is a god. That should be guaranteed action every week. But no.
Adding a second hour to Rampage would accomplish the same goal. One extra hour either way gets another 8 people in the ring every week. They easily have the roster and talent to pull it off. A 10 - midnight time slot is toilet worthy though. They'd have to go 9-11 and go head to head for an hour with Smackdown. That would be interesting.

If 3 hours isn’t enough for you, Dark and Elevation are free on YouTube weekly.

Big Swole and AEW "mutually" decided not to renew her contract. I know she's had health issues, but I'd be shocked if it was entirely mutual. But if her contract just expired, I have to think there may be some other Day 1 wrestlers who are moving on shortly.

Hate to see anybody out of a job but I never saw anything in Big Swole,tbh I forgot she was even on the roster(don't watch much of the YT shows). Now since they have a roster spot empty how about bringing in Rok C or Nox or both when you can.

A lot of those guys who signed before the company started or right at the beginning got deals for way more than their worth basically to hold them. A lot of those mid to lower card tiers are either gonna have to take less on their next deal or are gonna be gone. They have been able to sign talent that are now way higher on the card for a lot less than some of these people there from the beginning that are regulars on dark etc making six figures.

Yeah, there was also the element of "take who you can get." I'm sure there were some situations where they had to go to their B/C lists because first choices didn't want to sign with a brand new company with zero track record. Today they pretty much have their pick of talent, and ROH/WWE have flooded the free agent market. Just like any sport, it's only natural that some folks are going to move on in favor of new talent. And while it sucks for anybody to be out of a job, it's just a part of the business.

That would be like saying I want more Raw back in the attitude era, and then tuning in to Shotgun Saturday night to get my fix. No thanks.

By all means, keep complaining then By complaining I'm guessing you mean posting and making suggestions in an AEW thread asking, "What Would You Do?" Yes, yes I will. I'd also like to see a full time return to the covid set-up with the entrance ramp running to and being attached to the ring.

I don’t mind the large roster. It keeps it fresh for me, rather than seeing the same guys doing the same stuff week to week. I always liked on WCW when you’d have a random Marty Jannetty match or Rick Martel just show up on a Thunder for a match. I don’t know, it keeps it fresh and more of an organic show rather then here’s this guy in the same part of the show he’s always on.
