I'd sit on the hard cam side if they'd let me seems like a fun place to be

Same tbh it’s the side everyone plays to so way better for watching than the other side

The only reason to be on the other side is if you’re real eager to be on tv in the background to show off your clever sign about some dead game franchise nobody cares about

I was tempted to try and sneak into some of the empty hard cam seats when the crowd started to empty out for the ROH matched the two times I went to Collision but I chickened out :(

I did this in Phoenix last year for Rampage and had the time of my life. 10/10 highly recommend.

have you seen the roster, i’m not sure they could get much smaller

What is the correct number of wrestlers per minute of television?

The rule of thumb I had always heard was an average of 3 per segment/15 minutes. So 24 per 2 hour show, or 60 for the 5 hours of TV that AEW has weekly. AEW could get away with more as they have a heavier focus on tag teams/stable and don't have anyone who can justify multiple segments of attention on a regular basis, like Austin back in the day.

Counting people on the IR I'd say AEW's ideal roster size should be about 75-80 people. Big enough that people won't get overexposed and can be cycled off TV as necessary, but not so big that people are signed and forgotten about. I would also say that people on prospective/developmental deals wouldn't count against that number.

If AEW really does have 160 people under contract, they genuinely need to cut about half the roster.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

on the way up we thought Wardlow would be like a break out hoss similar to Batista in Evolution getting over with his charisma... and then it turned out he didnt have it and now hes a glorified Tyson Tomko
