So we are 2 weeks in and hopefully still a ton more to go but thus far with the TV show and a few PPVs under their belt, what do you think they can improve on ?

Same thing that I like and dislike about WWE
They post some fund post-match interviews that show A LOT of character and make it online only. Just add it to the show it is like a minute.

- Vignettes telling people more about wrestlers that they might not be familiar with. Give people guides on MJF, A Boy and his Dinosaur, Riho and others that folks that came for Jon Moxley are unfamiliar with.
- Some shorter matches to get a dudes offense over. Nothing wrong with a 5 minute match if it really showcases a dude. Send Billy Gunn or Curry Man out there to do the job.

They have done a good job telling characters in ring but some characters will definitely need it. Also,they definitely need better non-japanese female wrestlers |

Lose the mood lighting during matches.

Women's wrestling. WWE and NXT both smoke them in that regard.
And once they're out of the growing pains phase, more time dedicated to non-wrestling ways to showcase talent.
They STILL haven't explained anything about Evil Uno and Tiny Kratos and their man harem.

A way for people without cable access to watch the show legally (in the states) as it airs. I have zero interest in cable tv. I would not mind paying a reasonable fee to watch on my computer or smartphone.
Aside from that, more fleshing out of characters a la the 'road to' series, but on the show.

Outside of the joshi, the women's roster needs some work. And much less Bea Priestley. She's way too reckless.
Audio is still a mixed bag for hearing entrance themes, though the DC Dynamite taping was a vast improvement over the early PPV shows. But then it kinda reverted for the Boston taping.

We need a CARELESSNESS but with Cody |

I would try to find more time for post match interviews. I've seen them post some great segments on social media that could really further their characters more if they were on TV.

-Sound Mixing.
-About 4-5 more signed talent on both the men's and women's sides.
-More effort put into explaining who the talent are and their motivations.

I think the reality of AEW of having only two hours of TV a week is going to make watching stuff like Being The Elite and Road To... more crucial for weekly story developments. And if that's going to be the case, they should do more advertisement for both on Dynamite so people who aren't already in the know can go and watch.

Make the women's division seem more important in general.
Louder entrance themes.

A lot of BTE has focused on Kenny, basically slowly descending into madness the last few weeks. So that's why they do indeed need to put something about the youtube channels on the show. Even like showing Matt and Nick filming for BTE during Dynamite would be good.

Squash matches. NWA Power made squash matches an absolute art this week. NXT can also be really good at it.
If they are dead set on these wins and losses records, start padding that shit. I wanna see some 7-1 dude take on an 8-0 dude, not 3-2 vs 3-4 cause everyone is being booked to be on the same level. AEW needs local jobbers.

If they're going for a win/loss emphasis, something like Tale of the Tape use could go a long way of adding legimitacy and giving people unfamilar with certain talents a clearer idea on who they're watching.

-Sign more women, and more than one match/segment with them. AEW could use some better ones to wrestle each other and the joshis on TV and PPVs. That would prevent the Women of Honor comparisons.
-More pre-taped promos, vignettes, and interview/training segments
-Champions don't always have to wrestle every week, but should be featured in some way (promo, hype video)
-Improve the audio and themes
-No more crowd mood lighting
-A few shorter matches and squashes
-Merchandise commercials and wrestlers shilling sponsors
-Website photo gallery, like WWE.com has
-Push The Dark Order Jurassic Express
