Keep in mind I'm not trying to argue that AEW doesn't have a much better chance of succeeding than TNA ever did.

Just that I don't really think that right now they're a bigger brand than TNA was at its biggest. Give them a few weeks on TNT and barring some catastrophic blunder they're all but a lock to be bigger than TNA, just saying that I'm not really buying that they are right now.

...ah, i think i get it. i'd say AEW is currently bigger but it is part of the times. there's a vacuum right now that TNA didn't have, distribution and advertisement have both gotten so much better and easier to do, and management is just so much better, both publicly and internally. TNA at its peak managed to reach the level it did without the opportunities that AEW has as a byproduct of 10 years of internet, therefore it was actually a bigger deal - that the general argument? it was harder for them to reach that level than it has been for AEW to reach their level. time needs to be given for hype to die down because the internet knows how to be extremely focused and then disappear.
