Vince coming back to WWE is the worst possible news I could think of for that promotion. And it was already struggling. Yikes.

Wall Street disagrees though - which is what this is all about.
Shares are up 22% today and are the highest they've been since October 2019. (Which is about half a billion dollars for Vince if you look at how many shares he has)

It's just not a good product right now. Even if you don't like the product, AEW was at its best when it was doing long-term, old school storytelling, and building up its young and homegrown guys (e.g. Darby, Jungle Boy, etc.). Now it seems to be all about booking dream matches for smarks and worked shoot after worked shoot. They've become as predictable and repetitive as they used to make fun of WWE for being.

It really is bad right now.
Honestly the product has really been trending downhill since Punk Debuted...I feel like that was probably it's peak and downhill since.
