Earl Hebner is the worst fukking ref and he's now also in his 70s what's the fukking point beyond "nostalgia" bullshyt. Especially as Cody is cutting promos about putting the Attitude Era to rest.
Jim Ross is the commentator too hmm

How much was All In and what were the actual PPV numbers coming out of that? Traditional PPV is dead now that UFC put theirs behind the ESPN+ pay wall. The last UFC PPV got like 50K buys :mjlol: People aren't paying $60 for a single event anymore.

ALL IN Probably Did Around 20,000 Pay-Per-View Buys

We know there were over 11,000 people in the building and tickets sold out lightning fast like an Eminimen verse when he kicks it into high gear, but the number for the pay-per-view purchases hasn’t been released just yet.

Dave Meltzer was asked about ALL IN pay-per-view buys during Wrestling Observer Radio and he said that he knew the number for internet buys was around 20,000, therefore he would imagine that the pay-per-view purchase number can’t be higher than that.

"I have no guess so I don’t know the number. I’ve asked around and I don’t have a number. I’m sure if the number was real big I would know it. It’s illogical that it’s too small because I know they did 20,000 on the internet and there’s no way that you’re doing more on the internet than you’re doing on television. That’s just ridiculous. But you know, if it did 80,000 on television, I got to think I would know that.”

60 dollars for playfighting when im paying 10 a month for real fighting on dazn and 5 on espn+ :dead:
$60 is wild. They've got no right to ask that of people when they are brand new and when it's 2019. $20 or $25 at most is really what they should be charging.

I'm All Out at $60.

As a group, The Elite has always been pretty greedy and shameless and I hope they rein that in with AEW, but I doubt they will.

They get away with a lot of shyt and their stans are insuffurable to the point they say you a hater for saying anything. I dont watch the E anymore of course i want them to succeed but they pull a lot of shyt that dudes would give Vince shyt for.

The way Omega left and fukked their booking wasnt right after the way NJ treated him :hubie: Should have dropped to Okada at the garden and bounced. He pretty much went Kliq with his title defenses and nobody said anything they gave hbgoat hell for doing the same :hubie: His title reign wasnt that great because of it.

Have an epic rivalry people calling the goat and have your first defense against Cody :dahell: :dahell:

Perfect story there w Ibushi and we need to add Cody :dahell: :dahell:

With that said in ring i fukk w the way his matches are set up

Bucks are corny to me so i dont fukk with them :hubie:


Joey Ryan:hhh:

Cody :hubie:

Page can go if he in there w someone who can other wise he extra average like Cody:hubie:

The carny shilling selling pieces of the ring :russ:

Hopefully that Khan guy can reign in a lot of that fukkery.

His contract expired on January 31st, so dropping it at the Garden in April was probably never an option.

We know how NJ contracts are set up after akkk styles and Nak......breh ate crazy good over there for a foreigner he could have signed some type of extension then go fukk around w his super kliq. They had to hot potato the belt to Tana w Kurt Angle knees and White :hhh: off the strength of him leaving.

It is what it is they should have learned after last time but personally sometimes you just gotta rock someone business wise off how they treat you. NJ was VERY good to him look at a guy like Naito in comparison :francis: thats a guy who has every right to :pacspit: them.

I swear I should be to the point where I don't laugh at the names y'all give these wrestlers, but even the simple ones still make me laugh.

Doesn't make anything better but PPV providers take half the cut so I guess that's why they always overcharge on PPVs.

MITB actually costs 54.99 from cable providers somehow too.

Dave showing how out of touch he is if he really thinks it's impossible that more people watched All In online than traditional PPV, especially when you could get it much cheaper via ROH Honor Club/NJPW World/Fite than you could traditional PPV.
