Is Kenny Omega a bigger draw than Sting? Davy Smeltzer seems to be hinting so

[The Great One]

I think he just posted that to show that they did travel outside of the impact zone, it's clear as day that the ppv hasn't even begun yet.

It doesnt say anywhere in that picture they travled anywhere.

Hes Trolling lol

I mean, the tweet Dave is responding makes no fukking sense in the first place. Of course Dave follows it up by full retard because that's what he does when it comes to AEW/The Elite guys


Not really, they did sell out a huge show (King of Pro Wrestling at Sumo Hall) without a card 1 week before the event. Kenny vs Cody vs Ibushi main evented that one

That was in Japan. Im talking us shows. They were struggling to sell out that cow palace show if i remember correctly. Again that wasnt all on Kenny but its just proof hes not the draw Dave would make him out to be.

NJPW has proven themselves to pretty pretty shytty at promoting in the US, running the same area 4 times in a year likely had something to do with the Cow Palace numbers. Their upcoming Dallas show is going to be a disaster if they don't announce some big time matches in the next few days (like Okada vs Moxley, KENTA vs Ibushi type shyt) because they don't do any promotion in the US for whatever reason. Just leaving it up to Lance Hoyt to sell out a 20,000 seat arena by wandering around town like a bum.

Omega is good but overrated

Don’t @ me

 

[Crimson_Dynamo]

No? I mean till this day my mom and uncle still talk about how much they loved sting. Who outside iwc and japan knows who omega is?

 

[Amor fati]

Send this old dry face Lykan looking b*stard to the nursing home already. fukk him, his double talk and his spot fest fetish

Not sure if you can compare today to like twenty years ago, especially using TNA that never had much of a crowd and stayed in one place. I also think WCW didn't go too many places either. Didn't they have a handful of arenas that they did most of their shows in? How big of a draw was Sting in comparison to like the NWO, Savage, Hogan, etc.? Don't remember much really of how the sales were looking during their run. And then Omega really hasn't had as much US shows to compare either. Has he even wrestled more than 20 matches over here? Can't really compare them until Omega gets a title run over here. Do wonder how Sting would've done if he came to WWE after the buyout. Could've definitely been a mid-top tier guy. Maybe not Austin and Rock levels but close enough.

WCW traveled all over.

they did most of their tapings in certain locations pre-nitro, but that's how things were usually done back then.

I still can't believe that people actually pay money to read this bozo's opinion.

 

[supertrekker]

meltzer is a mark, but how many 100k buyrates did stang do in TNA?




kenny omega doing 100k buyrates and never even been on prime time american tv.


i'll see my way out.

Sting was past his prime in TNA and TNA couldn't draw with other former WCW stars either. I can't comment on Omega never seen the guy wrestle or care for NJPW

Does the casual fan know what a Kenny Omega is?

 

[supertrekker]

Sting in 2001 would of been ultra over...are you people on drugs? Do you know who Sting is? The Nwo dont work without Sting....this thread and topic is preposterous. One of the dumbest topics in TSC history.

The NWO thing don't work without Hogan. Goldberg could've been the top face to beat them just later on. Sting's best time to come to the WWF would've been early 90's when Hogan was doing movies.

 

[DaHNIC82]

Fukk no.. They still selling Sting Costumes for halloween.. Omega can walk through a crowd and nobody outside of smarks and wrestling fans wont know who he is.

 

[Rell84shots]

Does the casual fan know what a Kenny Omega is?

No, But the Omega marks will swear that Halle Berry gave him a shout out and not provide any proof

 

[XannyWarbucks]

Meltzer really hates Sting, shyt never made any sense to me.
