AEW should've had war games on that lukewarm PPV they had a couple weeks ago instead.
Why? Ratings wise they’re closer to impact than they are to Raw or Smackdown.I really dont think Lockdown was a factor. I think that between ppvs which arent often for AEW, they like to have theses special versions of Dynamite in the vein of mini ppvs like Clash of the Champions was. Id believe a "Vince had the Saudi prince release the Coronavirus to take down AEW" rumor before id believe any company would alter plans because of Impact Wrestling

War Games was created by Dusty Rhodes. WWE could’ve used it for Raw and Smackdown but Vince being Vince, he didn’t want to use what he didn’t create.
Nah Impact was getting a milli while RAW was getting 4 million or more viewers. AEW is getting 900k while RAW is getting 2.3 million while going up against another WWE show.
Put Impact up against ECW on Sci-Fi and it wouldn't do 900k even before cord-cutting.

vince uses plenty of things that he didn't create. he built his empire on such.
he just doesn't like to use things that are already too big for him to steal the credit.
