Britt Baker lacked any type of substance to drive the feud until All Out. Let’s not forget the failure of a strong women’s feud and how disjointed the All Out card felt.
This would’ve helped The Pinnacle could’ve off as a huge threat, that way the rematch at All Out would’ve had higher stakes and a less predictable outcome. That way, Jericho and his crew could’ve sold their “injuries” for a month or two while The Pinnacle dominates AEW Dynamite. Imagine if the blood and guts match took place at Double or Nothing. Yet, less than two weeks later the entire crew makes their triumphant return. Chris Jericho was tossed off the top of the cage in what appeared to be a serious injury angle. These guys came out fast with the blood and guts match. The Inner Circle rivalry felt like a rush job. The face or heel dynamic was never clear and the story behind it was weak. As great as Shaquille O’Neal’s match against Cody and Red Velvet was, the entire build-up was bad. There have been too many times when a writer could’ve been used to fix or enhance feuds.
There’s nothing wrong with AEW having talents script their own feuds, but not everyone has a creative mind like Kenny Omega or Chris Jericho. I know, I know, one of AEW’s main things is the creative freedom that the company has over WWE. If AEW can fix these problems then the promotion could easily hold the claim of the best wrestling in the world. Granted, the Japanese promotion doesn’t have the hype that AEW has, but there’s no denying the level of skill and craft that goes into their stories and matches. However, one can argue that New Japan Pro-Wrestling is the best promotion going on at the moment. Of course, financially, WWE is the top promotion, and that likely won’t end any time soon. However, there are a few issues that prevent AEW from truly being the best promotion in the world. Since the company’s debut in 2019, All Elite Wrestling has constantly received high marks for its exciting storylines, fantastic matches, and incredible depth of its roster. It was a hot show capped off with an amazing moment. On September 5th, AEW held arguably one of their best pay-per-views to date, All Out, which featured the in-ring return of former WWE Champion CM Punk, the debut of Minoru Suzuki (more so a one-off), Ruby Soho, Adam Cole, and Bryan Danielson.
