All Elite Wrestling/ALL IN 2 - paperwork been filed, in a positive sense. :ohhh:

One thing I thought about after the recent Fox TCA that nobody is talking about

They interviewed the head of Fox a couple of days back about Smackdown and its place on Friday. Currently the ratings are down on USA and Fox's Friday Night shows currently have gone up. He said that Smackdown on Fridays was a short term move. Now Meltzer and them speculated that may mean they may move them to another night but also to another channel like FS1

Is it possible that Fox might put Smackdown back on Tuesdays over on FS1 and then they end up competing and even taking viewership for Tuesday Night Dynamite?


I dont know if I see Vince changing the TV road schedule to Friday, weekend gap for house shows and then Raw on Monday when Monday/Tuesday is already a force of habit and may want to go back to that.


They gotta be careful over at AEW cause as much as they aren't trying to compete with WWE, theres nothing stopping WWE from competing with them

I always assumed they'd hire a second production crew now that they're getting 2 billion over the next 5 years. The only reason they do Monday/Tuesday is so the production crew is to save costs.

Just read that Fenix and Penta are sticking with MLW. Don't know if that's because of the AAA deal though.

It looks like the only people exclusive to AEW for the moment are The Elite. I wonder how things will shake up once TV comes, not gonna be possible for the Lucha Bros to be at Impact, MLW AND AEW.

I really don't know if this is good or bad. Should stars be exclusive to build their mystique or not?

I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it plays it. The important thing is if the product is good.

Idk. Part of All In's appeal was also that it felt like an indie All-Star game.

It would be nice for them to have exclusives deals but I have a feeling the first year or so, it's gonna be Elite members and everyone not signed to WWE, ROH, or NJPW.

Right now they're golden, Meltzer just announced that 12,000 people have already signed up for presale codes for Double or Nothing so they can ride the wave for a bit.

The great thing about NXT is that people come and go and matchups don’t get old (aside from Gargano v Ciampa). They used to bring in guys like Jushin Liger, Kota Ibushi, Cesaro, Tyson Kidd to work programs with their regulars then they went on their way. AEW can make it work if they want

Thats pretty decent i guess

Which wrestler is hooking up with Nyla Rose?

 

[Jmare007]

"WWE casuals" isn't their audience, though. I don't think they're even on the radar. They're competing with NXT head space, but I don't think they really need to "compete" in the sense that I'm pretty sure people watching NXT are going to watch AEW and aren't going to be picking sides or anything.

Yup. And AEW needs to cater to it's core audience, specially at first. They don't need to worry about "casuals" until they have a established themselves as a real player.

That's the landscape of the business nowadays though, it's really gonna suck when someone in a big angle on AEW tv gets injured appearing for another company.

I can't get over the fact that CIMA went to China and taught Shaolin Monks to wrestle

This sounds amazing

Pretty sure "Change The World®" meant change the landscape of pro wrestling, which they've actually already done. No one thought they were talking about world peace, global warming or solving world hunger. I fully believe Kenny OmeGAWD could do all of those things if he put his mind to it though.

WWE is the epitome of safe and vanilla.

You wanted Omega in the E and you're salty about it.

Yep. Omega himself said on Wrestling Observer Live that going to WWE WAS the safe choice for him. Why would anyone think otherwise?

Some people mad a group indie wrestlers started a new promotion. LMFAO

"But Kenny would've change the world in the wwe..."
