2K previously got bogged down with overly-complex control schemes pre-2K22. Changing that up was one of the best decisions they've ever made; WWE 2K22's intuitive control layout helps give matches better flow, and everything seems a little less clunky than it once did.

Wrestling gamers out there wouldn't scoff if the developers borrowed from classics like No Mercy on N64 or SmackDown: Here Comes The Pain on PS2. People adore those games for a reason. They were simple to pick-up-and-play, and they didn't take months to master.

AEW's game has to make sure that everyone can pull off big moves/spots/moments at the drop of a hat. Nobody should be fiddling around for hours trying to figure out how to place a foe on the top rope then hurricanrana them to the canvas. The same could be said other things, like putting wrestlers through tables or diving over the ropes to the outside.
