While Ric Flair made that corner bump famous, I'm pretty sure it was 1st done by Ray "The Crippler" Stevens. Stuff in this match is part of why AEW disappoints me. The referee was holding the ladder steady during that superplex spot. Now while I don't want to see anyone get hurt it still makes the thing looked staged, even though it's not even the worse Ref holds the ladder moment in AEW. If you can't do it safely but still look like your in a real fight, then you shouldn't be doing it at all. It's the same as if a boom mic or a stage hand gets in the shot of a Hollywood production. It just makes me sad that Tony has the money to compete with the WWE on a high level, but would rather be like GCW or Pro Wrestling Guerilla. the only reason they are the number 2 company in the US is because of the obscene amount of money Tony's dad let's him throw into the company.

I understand those issues. For me, a lot of it comes down to production value. In the same way Kevin Dunn's zoom-happy style made WWE's broadcasts look a little worse than they should have, I think AEW needs to do better when it comes to planning, framing, and presenting shots. The ladder-holding thing isn't the biggest issue for me (once you start to notice all of the safety things you just never un-see them), but there are plenty of times where a massive spot was shown in a way so that the TV audience got the worst-possible angle and broke the illusion. WWE showed us Roman's confused face during AJ Styles's WWE debut, and AEW showed us the padding used to cushion falls off a big spot. Same basic spot as Shane McMahon took 10 times in the Attitude Era (which also utilized padding), but shown in the complete wrong way so as to expose the trick.

My biggest complaints for the big promotions right now are the unbelievable over-saturation of ads with WWE, and that AEW's production values haven't caught up enough. I don't need AEW to be presented like WWE, but that little bit of extra planning helps in the presentation. I also wish they could give us the kind of hype packages that WWE does (it would be especially nice for introducing Angela to different angles/rivalries), but I'd settle for better. They're certainly better today than in 2019, but I feel like their growth in the production department should have really taken off by the end of the CM Punk era (or even in response to that era ending).

Yeah WWE has their own problems for sure
