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

[avon barksdale]

Tony Khan has lost his damn mind. I went to buy presale tickets for the upcoming show in Fresno and they want $637 a ticket for front row seats and $350 for second row. Last time I went I paid around $90 for second row. No wonder they can't sell tickets. They over charge. Very few tickets have moved from when I logged in this morning.

But I thought when the tickets was selling they had a discount on them? But now he is over charging

Saw this somewhere and wondered maybe we don't have to see nyla Rose no more .

I find it wild how this was a thing when you can literally count on one hand how many trannies were playing women's sports.

In terms of Nyla, I expect Tony Kahn to double down on it.

I wanted good seats, but I'm not paying those type of prices. That's to much especially since they're only using half the arena. Everything will be close to the ring, so I'll wait till closer to the show and wait for prices to hopefully drop. These type of prices won't do good in Fresno. Last time they came through there was a good size crowd but prices were reasonable. Fresno is a good wrestling town, but not at these prices. The last WWE house show here was close to a sell out, so there is a market here for wrestling.

He doesn’t have the product to demand those prices

Yeah I'm hoping they drop. I want to go and more then likely will, but I'm not about to overpay. I'm cheap.

My thought is, that this is probably a Ticketmaster thing because I paid $60 for two tickets from when they were in DC a few weeks back.

@jerniebert Were they labeled 'Platinum' by Ticketmaster? Those seats are always overpriced. You can sometimes get the same seats or better for half the price if they don't have that label.

It's the VIP Presale today. They have both VIP packages and regular seats. Some of the VIP packages are actually cheaper then seats without the VIP package. The platinum doesn't usually come out till they go on sale to the general public. I usually jump on when they do the presale. That's usually when you can get the best seats at the cheapest prices. Last time I went the presale tickets moved pretty quick. Today it's only like a 100 seats that have been placed for sale.

It says tomorrow is the Presale, so I'm going to check back tomorrow to see if maybe they are more reasonably priced.

You should look at section 5. They have tickets in Row A at like $250 a piece. They also have Row B tickets in other sections for cheaper. I just looked.

I'm seeing $350 there, but I don't like being at that weird angle. I did that one time for a WWE show and I didn't like the view. You're stuck facing the seating in section 6. I wonder why you're seeing lower prices then I am.

You have to scroll down further. Ticketmaster will sometimes have the "best seats" tab kinda fukked up... You'll see some Row B's at around $275-$300 as well which is pretty much the going rate for a standard wrestling show, non-PPV

Seeing that Klansley thread is funny and how AEW has done more for black wrestlers in its short time:

.Jade Cargill was the first ever TBS champ and was dominant.

.Mone shining with the belt collector run and putting on quality matches.

.Athena the most dominant ROH Women’s champ.

.PP, Acclaimed, Swerve in Our Glory, and Starks getting runs with the tag belts. And Acclaimed having a trios title run.

.Swerve’s rise was organic and became a star.

.Willow becoming a fan favorite and having accomplishments in and out of an AEW ring.

.Hurt Syndicate becoming fan favorites even though they’re supposed to be heels. Their future is far from over.

.Scorpio Sky got shine as a tag and singles champ.

I can even list Latino/Hispanic and Asians who have gotten airtime and/or shine being part of the company, but I won’t because it’ll be a longer list.

Let’s see how long it takes for someone to try to shyt on the list with “the booking sucked” bullshyt.
