#1: Taking shots at WWE

From the moment AEW was announced back in January this year, they have always stated that they are not a competition, but instead, are an alternative to the WWE. If this truly is the case though, then the new promotion is certainly doing poorly, as AEW have gone out of their way to take cheap shots at WWE and their higher-ups.
Fans only need to look at Cody Rhodes' entrance at Double or Nothing, attacking a Triple H throne to show just how silly these attacks have gotten. Whilst some fans might find that funny, all it does is serve to prove that WWE is still the number one game in town, and that is something that AEW must stop doing, instead, putting the focus on themselves instead of their competition.
