Competition is good.

It's healthy, and it's why so many fans, critics and wrestlers cheered when AEW launched back in 2019. Finally, everyone reasoned, folks would have another major company to watch and wrestlers would have another major place to earn a living. Things have worked out well on that front.

Chris Jericho led the way by ditching WWE for Tony Khan's upstart group, but Cody Rhodes has since made headlines for leaping in the opposite direction. Forget playing favourites though, because this is good for the wrestling biz as a whole. That competitive spirit creates a buzz-filled marketplace for everybody.

Then, there are others plying their trade and showing the way over in New Japan as well. Mercedes Moné has kissed the Sasha Banks name goodbye and is living out her teenage dreams in NJPW - every bit of this tells the story of an industry that's thriving across the board.

Long may that continue.
