Creating AEW was essentially based on the premise of a wrestling company run by wrestlers which included Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks. And that essence has been retained even after the growth of the promotion.

During an interview with Yahoo Sports, Cody Rhodes said that AEW cuts out a lot of the bureaucracy that WWE has and that AEW’s overall focus is fun. He explained:

It is true that wrestlers within AEW have more creative control, and perhaps that is the advantage of creating a new promotion from the ground up. That said, it remains to be seen whether this model can deal with the challenges that come up in the long run.
