Jonathan Coachman Thinks WWE Has a Hot Product Right Now, Critiques AEW

– During a recent appearance on Busted Open Radio, former WWE broadcaster and on-air Raw General Manager Jonathan Coachman assessed the state of the wrestling industry, including WWE and AEW. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

Jonathan Coachman on WWE having the hot product right now: “All the AEW haters are gonna come out of the woodwork right now. I think the WWE is hot, because of the stars that they have, the storylines that they have. There is no substitution for star power and I think right now in the WWE, you got these gigantic characters. When you look at a place that now are running three nights in a row [in the same city], running Friday, Saturday, all this stuff. You’ve gotta be hot to be able to do that.”

His thoughts on AEW: “When I look at AEW, you gotta have a company and talent and people at the top that understand the good and the bad and are willing to talk about it and not just walk by. I was there [in WWE] when it was red hot. I was there when they had 2,000 people sitting in the stands. And you gotta be able to kind of get through all of that. And AEW right now, they’re just starting that process. WWE is red hot. I don’t think AEW is.”
