MCU has become such a huge brand that people aren't even Marvel fans they are MCU fans, that's why so many people were happy that Fox got sold to Disney and didn't want Sony making a Spider-Man film. I like MCU alot, but they make a very specific film and 9/10 times I enjoy it but I don't want only style of superhero film.
A boom in indy wrestling talent getting more exposure and eventually becoming big time audience drawing promotions? That forced the entrenched company to sit up and take notice.

This isn't sports, but it's also not just one sport. Marvel vs DC has been done to death, and so much good comic content is being put out year after year, and being adapted to movies and TV shows year after year. Looking at comic book movies as this superhero universe vs that superhero universe and this media conglomerate vs that media conglomerate ignores the vast majority of great storytelling out there that is comic related with nothing to do with superheroes.
