The one thing AEW no doubt, unquestionably has over NXT is crowds size/energy. Even the shows were the crowd had been fairly low energy, there still was way more enthusiasm and henergy in the air than there can be for like 800 at Full Sail every week. Even I can't find a way to spin a negative about the crowds and in fact the AEW crowd energy has really carried a lot of the weak/inconsistent booking.
Darby being the prime example when they give him some big star making role for a show and then do nothing with him for 3-4 weeks, yet he's still about as over as anyone but Cody and Mox. I would also say the crowds singing Jericho's theme has added a real shot of energy and specialness to his segments that were already running stale 2-3 months ago.

) forming, Jake the Snake (
) still cutting money promos 30 years later and managing someone (Harper? Archer?) against Cody, Page and the Elite split widening, plenty more. the only real negative I had was Archer being advertised then inexplicably not being mentioned. My biggest knock on them before was no connectivity week to week and building things up but it really feels like they’re hitting their stride and getting the hang of booking a weekly wrasslin show. Great show, definitely motivating me to cop tickets for the April 15th show in Boston
