The "let's not take this shyt so seriously" AEW news & fukkery thread

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

TBS is a much more viewed channel than CW and it’s not particularly close, that’s a fact, regardless of how many homes can access each. CW isn’t even a top 15 viewed channel

And? TBS is viewed by more people because there's things on TBS that people want to watch like superhero movies and shyt.

The CW is available in 100 million+ homes. That means anyone in the U.S. with a TV can watch it. They don't have to pay.

Is there a cable chart and a separate broadcast chart? Yes. Which chart does The CW show up on? The broadcast chart

You can try to spin it any way you want, the show with 40 million more people with access beat out the other show by less than 100,000 viewers and the demos were practically tied.

That doesn't speak to the quality of the show because NXT was the far better show You get so wrapped up in the promotional BS that you're unable to understand that I separate financials from quality. NXT has been the better show for a long time.

Why would I lie about something as dumb as this?

 

[Silkk]

It honestly don’t even matter how many households they’re in. The number hasn’t changed.

They did 800k last year and 500k this year. Anyone who isn’t an idiot can see how bad that is.

Yet Warner Bros. still opened the checkbook so who cares

Man yall are some dweebs here arguing about ratings

I’m just glad one day I can enjoy NXT and then the next day enjoy AEW. It’s not that deep

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

There's a difference between most watched and most households you're available in. The CW is available in every house with a TV. TBS is available to anyone with a cable package and as we know cable has been shedding subscribers for years.

Cable used to be in 100 million+ homes. Now it's in somewhere between 60 to 65 million homes depending on the report. It's shrinking and that's also why NBC is so heavy handed on getting Peacock going or why Warner Bros. wants everyone to sub to Max etc..

Is it possible to compare the share of viewers one program gets on cable vs another program gets on tv? Was surprised there wasn't a calculator to try to establish an equivalency (like an inflation calculator) with a quick Google.

IsbAew is doing worse this year on cable than they did last year on cable, irrespective of NXT?

It's not really even an argument When did people become so adverse to learning about how certain things operate or why they operate the way they do

Wrestlenomics sometimes tracks things like how a program is doing vs. the average cable program. AEW is doing far worse than they were but the reason they got the bag from Warner Bros. is because of the demographics numbers that show AEW often times ranking 1-5 on Wednesday nights for all cable shows. People get stuck on the 800k or 500k but none of that matters as much as the 18-49 and what WBD believes they can get from advertisers in that time slot for live wrestling programming... which is another factor because wrestling doesn't pull in the same high priced advertisers as something like football or NBA

AEW has been in the 600’s for awhile now

Last night they was down by 100 of their normal viewership

Both shows didn’t share the same viewership

 

[MenacingMonk]

He would at least pop a 630 or something. Lets keep it gucci.

Omega isn’t bringing in over 100k by himself. Stop. I fukks with Omega heavy, but he’s not the one who’s gonna bring in large numbers. Hes not even cleared to wrestle and people are gonna tune in for his promos? The same promos you guys give him shyt about.

Aye he cuts better promos than the Bucks that's for sure. I love the part where he sounds like a B Tier Final Fantasy mid boss
