AEW Stars Mock WWE For Complaints About Violent Content

And now, the response. WWE and AEW have been rivals since the latter came into existence three years ago. AEW certainly has caught fire since then, with the company going from barely existing to the second biggest promotion in the world today. Both companies present themselves in different ways, and it seems WWE does not care for AEW’s style. Now it is time for AEW to fight back.

Earlier this week, the Toronto Star published an article comparing the two companies. WWE sent in a statement for the article, criticizing AEW’s violent content while promoting its own family friendly content. The statement included a reference to a No DQ match between Tay Conti/Anna Jay vs. the Bunny/Penelope Ford, in which all four bled. Conti, Jay and the Bunny have all sent out photos on Twitter, showcasing the results of the violence in the match.

Opinion: I can get either side of this, as there certainly is an audience for such violence, but at the same time, there is something so strange about seeing it in modern wrestling. The violence has been toned down in a good way and seeing people bleeding like that is a little off putting. If AEW can use it sparingly, it isn’t as bad, but hopefully it doesn’t become the norm.

What did you think of the match? Was the blood too much? Let us know in the comments below.
