I'm rooting for WoW

To get good and take all their players back.

I'm not even kidding

Can't stay on top forever, even the most long-held dynasties eventually get dethroned (unless we go into freemason and conspiracy 13 families, but WoWs devs are too stupid to be anything conspiracy related.)

Personally to me WoW felt alienating. It was too big, too old, and thus amongst other players you would never be anything. Just another face in the crowd. While FFXIV you're also 'just another player' it feels like you're actually someone, amongst the story, amongst your friends, amongst the world of other players.

And there's not a lot they can do to fix that feeling.
