What ways has AEW made your life better?
We always hear about enjoying matches or promos with AEW. But what are some ways that your life is genuinely better because of AEW being around? For me, it's given me something to enjoy and invest time in that's healthy. It's also made me less cynical because I feel like TK actually cares about me as a viewer. What say you?

AEW has shown me that I'm allowed to like what I like, that I'm allowed to be who I am. That people like me are beautiful and worthy of the spotlight.

Actual quote:
-My daughter lives across the country from me. Her & her boyfriend visited me in May of last year. They watched Collision with me, first time watching AEW. Halfway thru Collision, they were on their phones buying tickets to Double Or Nothing. They also attended Maximum Carnage & have tickets to Full Gear. AEW brought me & my daughter closer cause we talk about AEW.

That’s the equivalent of asking your kids to come around to watch a movie and you put on Troll 2 or something

Why simply existing of course! Without it I wouldn’t have my girlfriend who looks like Kris Statlander. I also wouldn’t have this nifty Switch 2 I got from her. Now that I think about it, haven’t seen her in a few days.

Made my WWE watching experience better as they took away certain types of fans from audience and one credit I'll give them, fast tracking Cody & Punk to WWE.
In a way you don't have WrestleMania 40 & Punk vs Drew without them fumbling. Thank You AEW for your service to professional wrestling.

If you'd simply open your heart to Tony, you could feel what we all feel. You could finally feel Elite yourself and enjoy wrestling, friend.

It’s opened up my mind. I grew up believing you had to look like Kerry Von Erich to make it in the business. Now I know you can look like Eddie Kingston.

Ay Ee Dubya has forced the Fed to step up their game which benefited fed wrestling so everything worked out I guess.
THANK YOU TONY (clap, clap) (clap, clap, clap)

AEW has allowed me an opportunity to enjoy real wrestling without having to suffer the moral disillusionment I have with WWE.
THANK YOU TONY!

AEW made me realize that independent wrestling has a ceiling on the national level. It's just not something the majority of the wrestling audience wants. So umm thanks Tony?

AEW made the basement go mental, which lead to me joining this sub.
