They knew exactly what they were doing, the ticket sales were coming up short for the big LA show and that’s been known for a while. It will hurt AEW next time they tease a big surprise and it’s on them.

Even tho it was not as packed as the last Dynamite show here, they sold over 8k in advance and had about 1500-2k available. Plus they already announced Paige’s partner some time ago. What kinda argument is this when it was known Toni was the partner the DAY OF? Fans got worked into thinking something might happen. :dahell:

Doubt it’ll hurt future LA show attendance since LA is top 5 in Wrasslin crowds.

It’s funny that the crowd was expecting Mercedes to come out as a surprise. I never expected that to happen because all you gotta do is look at her IG and see that she’s still in Japan and is having a blast. NJPW seems to be only thing she’s focused on wrestling wise. It’s embarrassing that those fans booed all the women in the match. Tony should take all the heat for that.

Like dude said on Twitter….Read the fukking room. :mjlol:
No one booed the women. They booed because the a$$hole TK had the lights come off after the match and aired a Rampage promo on the screen. :heh:

But that's going to get old quick. Yeah, it's a smart business ploy, but after a while...heads are going to be like :camby: with Tony's"surprises". This is the type of dude that would say "SOMETHING'S BIG COMING TO RAMPAGE"

Fans tune in and line up, only to be greeted with this:

But it’s wrestling, no matter the push back to bait and switches, dudes are still gonna swim to the fish hook whenever it’s in the water. That’s how we built in the wrestling game.

It’s a business model that will never fail



They tease something > dirtsheets run with it > fans bite and expect it > it doesn’t happen > fans complain


Wash, rinse, repeat. It’s a story as old as Bobby Fish my brother, and It will never fail
