They don't, most people like AEW or are neutral towards it. There are a small number of perma online jobless smarks who seethe about AEW 24/7 and they formed a cult echo chamber which repeats talking points to each other and these people crave attention and visibility.

It is nonsensical wrestling, there are no storylines, there are no gimmicks, no characters, you might start seething and claim I am biased, or you can look at their ratings cratering week after week and see that I am being objective. One of the funnier ways of describing pro wrestling is calling it a gay soap opera, and you know what soap operas have? Stories, twists, characters, all things AEW (and for what it is worth younger wrestlers in WWE) lack.

NXT had already been airing on Wednesdays for years on WWE Network. WWE didn't counterprogram AEW, AEW actively chose to air its show at the same day and time as NXT.

NXT moving to USA Network was an unrelated decision because USA wanted more WWE programming after losing Smackdown to Fox.

I don't like fags.
I don't like trannies.
I don't like the marks in the front row thinking they can get n the ring.
I don't like the shittery.
I don't like the botches.
I don't like how a good portion of the roster look like 10 year olds looking like they are trying to impress their parents by flipping off the diving board.
I don't like manlets.
I don't like flippy shitters.
I don't like The Bung Yucks in the slightest and how their matches are just them playing slap ass and tickle taint with their fucking friends.
I don't like Tony's rats nest hair and his flavour of autism at all.
I don't like the fans. Like, at all. You would find more testosterone in a petri dish full of estrogen than you will at an AEW show. They are without a doubt, the biggest fucking faggots that would find in and outside Pulse nightclub.
I don't like and condone and condemn its parasitic one way relationship with New Japan and how its very creation cut the legs off the reconnaissance they were in the midst of in 2017 and they haven't recovered since. I don't like how the talent exchanges results in the talent becoming complacent and lazy or ultimately not used on television but they don't care; they're getting paid.
I don't think any of their championships are prestigious.
I don't like the empty fucking venues.
I don't like MJF. Period.
I do NOT like any of the fucking discord troons that defend it and the asinine cringe faggotry they shit all over this board and the business in general by their proximity and their petulant stupidity.
I don't like Dave Meltzer's gayness for it.
I don't like Kenny Omega and feel that he wasted his best years in an enterprise doomed from the start. I wish he either went to WWE or ultimately, stayed in Japan. He would have had a much higher star power by now and a prolonged career longer and father than what he ended up getting in the end: a blown out shitter that makes Nash's look virginal.
It hurt the business. Its just fucking rotten and not for me.

It's a parody wrestling company and embarrassing to watch. Everything about its presentation and booking is done in a style of "*wink wink* haha you know this is fake, and we know, that you know, that this is fake, so enjoy this great performance."
No one in the company is an actual heel or tries to be an actual heel. Two guys who have no feud, no motivation, and no reason to fight each other will have a 45 minute long cage match because it's a "dream match" for fat online smarks. Barely anyone has a character or storyline, so the only reason you're actually incentivised to like anyone is that they have "great matches." The booking comes off as completely asanine because its just Tony cycling through bangerinos to pop fat smarks with thought of consideration behind it. Ospreay debuted as a face, joined a heel faction, the leader of the heel faction made Ospreay wrestle everyone else else in the faction, Ospreay beat them all, and then left the heel faction, but the leader still helps him randomly every 4-6 months? Just absurd retarded bullshit. And finally for as much Vince derangement syndrome as most of the fanbase has, they seem incapable of realizing the average Young Bucks or Daniel Garcia segment or match is just as embarrassing and shameful as "Donald Trump" vs "Rosie O Donnel" match, having God as a tag team partner,or a Mr. Heiny segment.

Tony Khan's Twitter is a monument to WWE... and speaking of monuments, how about Cody smashing HHH's throne at one of the first AEW events?

It's fine, WWE counter-programs to a pathetic degree as well. Vince would have suffocated them with indifference like during the TNA-pushed "Monday night wars" but of course HHH is a cuck and couldn't help revealing how shook he was.

When I was a kid I was staying the night at my friend's house one Saturday which meant I had to go to church with them the next morning. Now I'm not against church, my family had our own church we went to but my friends church was fucking weird. I'm talking about people speaking in tongues and people falling on the floor when they got booped on the head by the preacher. You know, one of those mega churches you see on TV. When they passed the collection plate around I noticed my friends dad put a considerable amount of money in despite them being incredibly poor (they had ranch style beans with hotdogs cut up in them for dinner the night before). I thought the whole experience was the most bizarre shit I had ever seen at that point but it was completely normal to them. I don't know where I'm going with this. Fuck edrones though.

They are bad. I can go into detail about that if you like. But by being the second most available promotion in the United States they prevent there from being new challenger brands. When you can barely compete with nxt and have a limitless budget, it prevents other people from wanting to invest in a large scale wrestling promotion. So it’s not just that they are bad, which they are, its because they are also a huge failure making any potential investors who don’t understand wrestling enough to understand why AEW is unprofitable beyond them not being WWE.

I do not hate it but AEW will probably go down as the biggest missed opportunity in wrestling history. It could have been a true alternative but it is literally just an autistic kid copying (badly) everything that he watched growing up on TV from WWE, WCW, ECW etc. I doubt someone with the resources of the Khans will come along again and form a wrestling company any time soon so this was the last chance to "save" wrestling for awhile.

I would even say Tony waited too long. The talent wasn’t there in 2019, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to get any better. 2009, maybe 2012 at the latest could someone with unlimited money buy up the top indie guys and steal enough contracted workers to put one a watchable 2 hour wrestling show.

People who hate AEW typically fall into two categories. Those who watched at the beginning and started to hate it because it didn't live up to what they thought it could be and those who never watched it but parrot common internet talking points.
Those who used to watch it typically have valid points about it being indie or wasting Kenny Omega in his prime or Tony Khan's mismanagement of talent when Punk was there.
Those who never watched it generally stick to criticisms that were valid in the creative drought of the Brawl Out era like the lack of stories and general overabundance of heatless bangers. These are the types of people you can just outright ignore.
Current AEW is probably the best it's ever been unironically. People pine for the old days, but it's just like when boomers pine for the attitude era or the 80s.

Your problem is with leftists, not liberals.
American conservatives represent liberal values better (which are based in freedom and the ownership of property - not libertinism, which the word "liberal" has been perverted to mean) than the American left does, which is based in socialism (an entirely illiberal philosophy given that it rejects property ownership).
Don't take my word for it. Look it up for yourself.

There's lots of reasons. A lot of it is undeserved and dronie seethe/projection. You've got fans of other promotions who hold resentment too and some of that is fair, but you can't fault guys choosing big money over 100k for 20 dates a year. It's a business bro. I can't remember the last time Tony had a sperg-out either desu, but he's definitely still a dork. There's definitely some obnoxious and cringe AEW fans, which is just like any other fandom and internet community so it seems silly to hate them for that. Would I go to the pub with them? Probably not unless there was some lookers in the pack, but I try to separate the product from the fanbases. Just like I don't let someone's politics or personal business influence the media I consume.
