WCW wasn't actually bad at the chase, or the build up. They just didn't know how to finish. WWE's issue is the opposite. They haven't got a clue how to build up anymore, but some how stumble into these amazing finishes.

I meant to respond to this but forgot, but you basically made the point I was trying to make but you did a better job writing it. I don't have an issue with dusty finishes and shenanigans during the weekly shows if it leads to pay off down the line at the big shows. I would say AEW is knocking their "blowoff" matches out of the park for the most part. No one is ever going to bat 1.000, but I've yet to feel let down by an AEW PPV.
All that is to say, they've built up enough good credit with me that I'm willing to see where all of the latest nonsense is going before passing judgement. The reason I'm not willing to extend WWE the same is because they've blown all of that goodwill with their awful booking (e.g. Goldberg going over the fiend, various god-awful PPV finishes, etc.).
