And weren't they just valued at like a billion dollars? How do any of these things equal the company is dying? I don't even think that hard about about it. did I like the wrestling y/n is pretty much the deepest I go with it because wrestling doesn't make me money. If I was a business person inside the sphere, I'd pay more attention to houses and gates, whatever. Life Advice: Go watch baseball if you get horned up about spreadsheets

You mean the company that used the huge stadium show for a champ who's a hulk Hogan tribute, a ppv for an outlaw mudshow bleedfest that scares off the women and children, and the latest show had a fat slob as the feel good moment? Uh yeah I think they're dying

These folks are going to have to face a truth eventually that I had to face when WWE kept succeeding despite me hating it. Just because you don't like something does not mean it will fail.

Ticket sales are down but this seems to line up with them raising prices similar to what WWE charges when they used to be a bit cheaper. I’m not sure what the math is on whether they’re actually bringing in less money via gates or whether the increased cost makes up for the lower number sold. But while losing Punk again probably will hurt them a bit, they’re not exactly panicking.

Where instead of selling at about the ssme price point the whole time they presale at high prices then adjust down to hit the sweet spot. I heard that's how All In and some shows following have been.

I feel a lot of the doom and gloom about pre-sales is because of this new AEW pricing strategy which may have damaged AEW ticket sales a bit but not as much as people think

It wasn't 20k people in there like 2 years ago, but it definitely was over 7k in there.

I'm guessing there is not a lot of crossover between box holders and AEW.

Yeah, I really hope that Stevie doesn't start to pander to the worst types. His other videos have all been very fair and really fun, and he's a likable guy. But, well, rage generates clicks I guess.ARMBAR A COP posted:It’s amazing to think that the people who just really want AEW to fail have all this disposable income to sit at the front row at AEW shows It's so wild. Like drat I wish I had the money and time off work to go to one of the shows they're running an hour away but I just don't right now. I can't imagine the mentality of wanting to go to a show just to fold your arms in disapproval at the product lmfao. Go do something you like instead.

bebaloorpabopalo posted:https://twitter.com/EliteClubS0B/status/1704917721895616788 I love the replay on the dance, it really makes it. Stevie has always seemed like a decent guy but I don’t know what his podcast covers. It feels like these videos come from a genuine place of caring so I get why he’s mad looking from the outside in as a retired wrestler with neck injuries and poo poo, but obviously everyone made the decisions that were right for them. I don’t know that Tony has a second in command who would even run the show the way Vince does even if he did want to leave to join Mox at the hospital. But also, you can’t just leave every show and go to the hospital if someone gets injured. Vince didn’t leave when Owen died but did when Undertaker got hurt. Make a video about that if you want to complain.

It's the same reason that if you watch one wrestling match from a Japanese microindy suddenly the YouTube algorithm is insisting you really want to watch these Vince Russo and Jim Cornette clips, unless you are sensible and hit the "don't show me poo poo from this channel" button Right now Youtube has decided I really want to watch Maven's channel.
