Heres my only pushback and it’s not really simply a “oh trynna defend AEW thing” before anyone jumps to that.

But I think from watching how the Es been doing it for decades. Then watching how LU and NJPW does. I’m fine with the long matches from unknown guys to build them up.

Squashing most of your roster consistently and only elevating 12 people does nothing for your company. And makes it hard to believe later when you brag “but we have the BEST talent in the world”

Looking back at LU, one can make a case they had the strongest roster in modern times as they didn’t destroy or ruin talent for the sake of it or to spitefully get another top guy over.

That the main reason why you can get behind and believe Pentagon can take on 4 women

See I like it when Moxley doesnt mow over a newer guy like Darby...but these other guys just show no promise so it looks weird. I know what you're saying though, not everyone is a jobber for sure. But some people are legit enhancement talent.

Compare Cena doing a dark match against the likes of Roman and Nakamura after main events strictly as a special bonus for the live audience to Moxley wrestling no name jobbers for a tv show, brehs.

[Reality Check]

The only beef I have with Cody or the TNT title is I don’t think it needs to be featured every week.

Like I feel like that’s the problem with the WWE. When the same guys are shown every week, they start to say the same thing, do the same shyt, and get stale. Also the lesser used people just begin to feel less important, than it feels weird when they just randomly and inorganically start using them again.

Seth hasn’t said anything new in 3+ weeks
As cute as the SPs vs VR competition games been, nothing from them week after week been new or innovative

Im not saying guys need to be gone for weeks but every other week or “2 on, 2 off” I don’t think that would hurt the talent and plus it’s a great way to continue to show more talent.

Truth be told, I’d rather see Michael Nakazawa, The Librarians, etc occasionally get on than see one single talent get spotlighted every week.

It's named the TNT title so it should be a TV Title and defended weekly. Obviously Coronavirus fukked up everyone's plans, but Cody should not have been the first one to hold that title. Should have gone to Sammy Guevara or Archer.

And people really complaining about the length of matches on secondary shows? To use Kenny Omega for example, I'd rather see him in a 5 minute match than one where he v-trigger's someone and hits a one-winged angle in 20 seconds. If anything these shows help some of the younger talent get more experience and exposure for the most part.

I'm ready for another Cody title match IN!
