Jim Ross critiques WWE Worlds Collide vs AEW All Out

Jim Ross is pretty clear on why WWE scheduling Worlds Collide against AEW All Out in Chicago feels off. He says the timing and location check every box to compete directly with AEW rather than actually trying to entertain fans. It’s not about growing the profession when there are too many coincidences lining up like this. Ross argues that wrestling people are often ignorant to the idea that everyone can help each other instead of just fighting for market share. If the motivation was really to put on a great show and have a big house, he’d be all for it, but he doesn’t think that’s what’s happening here. By booking CM Punk on the show, you already guarantee yourself a big house in Chicago regardless of any other intent. That specific move makes the competitive angle even more obvious since attendance isn't the question anymore. #JimRoss
