    EP 191: Why AEW & WWE Fans Don’t Agree

    Why do AEW and WWE fans seem to argue about everything? Is it brand loyalty, tribalism, or are they simply looking for different things from professional wrestling? This week on Beyond the Junkyard, we kick things off with Drop That Promo, where we break down the fundamental differences between the two fanbases—from storytelling and in-ring action to presentation, pacing, and what each audience values most. Then it’s time for Push or Pass, as we decide whether we’d build around or move on from names like Blake Monroe, Maya World, Bang Bang Gang, Baron Corbin, Roman Reigns, Kyle Fletcher, and Darby Allin. Finally, in The Junkyard Challenge, we fantasy book Hangman Adam Page’s path back to the AEW World Championship. How would you make “Hangman” the face of AEW once again? 🔥 Let us know in the comments: Why do you think AEW and WWE fans disagree so often? Which wrestler would you push—and who would you pass on? * How would you book Hangman back to the top?

    EP 190: AEW SHOULD NEVER HIRE AN EX WWE STAR AGAIN

    Should AEW stop signing former WWE talent? In this episode of Beyond the Junkyard, we dive into one of the biggest questions surrounding AEW's future. After comments from Saraya (Paige) about her time in the company, is it finally time for Tony Khan to rethink his approach to bringing in ex-WWE stars? We also take a look at the current state of AEW's Women's Tag Team scene. Why has the division struggled to gain momentum? Is the talent there but the direction isn't, or is something bigger missing? (This portion is purely my opinion and speculation—not based on insider information.) Topics include: What's holding back AEW's Women's Tag Team scene? Saraya's comments and what they reveal about AEW. Why constantly signing former WWE names may be doing more harm than good. What AEW should prioritize instead to build its own identity. Do you agree, or should AEW continue pursuing established WWE talent whenever they're available? 👍 Like the video if you enjoyed it. 💬 Leave your thoughts in the comments. 🔔 Subscribe to Beyond the Junkyard for weekly wrestling discussions, analysis, and hot takes.
