Competing with WWE is the reason that TNA was never able ot sustain as a major brand. They tried to force the issue by putting Impact on Monday nights and signing a lot of big price established names. The company is still technically around but they're at best the 4th biggest promotion in America now.

WWE is great ! AEW is going to be great ! TNA is great ! NJPW is great ! Etc... And no need to create war between them All (In) 😉. Just appreciate things. When a Wrestler go to the WWE, be happy ! When a Wrestler go to AEW, be happy ! No need to say oh this Wrestler will be ruined in the WWE cause you can't know in advance and the WWE doesn't try to ruin Talents. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's just hard sometimes to use Everybody, the competition is BiG in the WWE ! And when a talent go to AEW, no need to say Ah ! In your face WWE ! And when Wrestlers leave the WWE, don't think that it's always the WWE'S fault. For some it doesn't work in the WWE for different reasons : Timing, competition, language barrier, culture, Wrestling style, the crowd too can make or break and sometimes some Talents are just not good enough compare to the others Talents ! Gotta be honest about this too !
