You’re never going to stop sucking racist Triple K’s dikk for free.

I’ll give you credit for at least showing up to reply instead of being a bytch like the other three were so

Are they putting the PPV library up on Max also?

 

[itiswhatitis]

Don’t know how much they spend being that they’re a private company. But taking so many losses on the video game, attendance, and bloated roster they need to trim a lot of shyt down.

Nothing wrong with running weekly at Daily’s Place or SMALL venues and present it with an ECW esque vibe with a budget. Put the ego to the side and play it smart. The marks show up at these PPVs so what does it matter? Scale larger venues later.

We prolly gotta wait and see until they announce the ppv stuff being on there in the future.

We don't know what the cost of running any venue is. All we know is that MSG is supposedly expensive. One thing also to keep in mind is capacity vs space required. They not gonna run an arena that holds 5k and take up most of the space with the stage and everything else. Makes no sense to go small if bigger arenas are at a similar cost worth options to expand setup.


They also have been running more shows now both tv and ppv compared to when the last media deal got signed. And usually get a ticket boost few days before the events. You can't expand more seats in a small venue. Goal is to fit as much of the seats they setup for, doesn't need to be every single seat in the arena.

They got the draft kings sponsorship and I'm sure they can get another one, not sure which other ones they already have.

Be interesting to see the finances but I don't think it would be as bad as it seems.

So shoot a TV show where it comes off bad and looks second rate rather than have a packed house of marks where it creates the perception of “this is the place to be”. Got it.

They are likely to be profitable next year if Thurston is reasonably accurate in his analysis.

People got to remember that AEW is a tiny fraction of the scale of what WWE is. Like they don’t have a real corporate HQ, for example, everyone outside of post production (which has an office in Nashville, I believe) either works remotely or at the Jaguars offices.

As a publicly traded company, wouldn’t WBD have to disclose if they had an equity stake in AEW?

The camera only needs to face one or at most two sides of the ring not including the ramp. Even if they fill just the bottom portion of the arenas it still would be decent. Motherfukkers go to these indie shows in high school gyms to watch events so I don't think they mind the venue size. Should AEW go that small? I doubt that.
