The company was fine when "The Elite" left. 2019 was a great year, good enough to pull me back into watching after 15 years of not watching wrestling.
The problem was when Tony started poaching home-built talents. And the rationalization as to why that was okay is, "well, at least WWE didn't get them."
WWE would have never poached all the guys Tony did. They didn't need the talent whereas Tony absolutely did. And these were the talents who were being built for the current point in time, which is why it's been difficult to build solid main eventers the past few years. Takes time to credibly build guys for that spot
