People saying to let Nakazawa go are forgetting he doesn't just have an in-ring role.

If 3 hours isn’t enough for you, Dark and Elevation are free on YouTube weekly. That would be like saying I want more Raw back in the attitude era, and then tuning in to Shotgun Saturday night to get my fix. No thanks. Worse, it's like going to a Superstars or Wrestling Challenge taping every week and watching 5 hours of Virgil vs. Barry Horowitz. They're cheap content filler for YouTube monetization and roster reps. The best use of them is checking in when a ride-or-die favorite has a match, or sometimes if there's a young wrestler showing a lot of promise. But, like, I'm not AEW's talent scout. So for me the YouTube shows are, "Well, Shida's not on Dynamite this week but at least she's here."
AEW's in a weird but kind of enviable position where they have a barely-changing baseline of fans week to week, but nothing they do for a ratings bump seems to stick. So I guess just stay the course for long-term but extremely gradual growth? No matter who they bring in, it pops a rating for like a week and then settles down again. The good news is that they have a fanbase that will follow them through preempted episodes, timeslot changes, and likely even a full network change. So at least they've got security.

I would bring back Norman Smiley to win the AEW world title.
