THE WRESTLING THREAD: HHH KEEPS DOING HHH THINGS.....
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
I think it will be! If ROH can be relevant for as long as it has been, I think AEW will be also. TNT has been happy with their ratings, their shows haven't slumped in quality whether you like them or not, they've been consistent. Will they be a WWE? HELL NO! They're just another option to watch.
Some levity
It really delivered on all levels.
This will be my second AEW show. Looking forward to it!
It now stands for Forever The Revival.STARTED OFF AS THIS...
Thanks.
This is a fantastic business move. Gives AEW more exposure in the Japanese market.
Meltzer got this one right. Everybody and their mama knows this was a five-star match.
Cornette puts over the Bianca Belair/Becky Lynch match. I do agree with the criticism that Bianca's gimmick is always the same no matter the circumstance. She's always coming out twirling their hair skipping to the ring no matter what. This is supposed to be a grudge match and a blow off to the Becky feud. Maybe you want to be more serious this time around and walk to the ring.

The AEW owner & booker says an unnamed ‘independent study’ has confirmed an expensive to maintain ‘staff running thousands of accounts and an army of bots’ are responsible for much of a significant portion of the hate his company gets on the web.

Tony Khan insinuates WWE is behind ‘much of the staunch anti-AEW online community’
The AEW owner & booker says an unnamed ‘independent study’ has confirmed an expensive to maintain ‘staff running thousands of accounts and an army of bots’ are responsible for much of a significant portion of the hate his company gets on the web.
Firstly, he never said that WWE was behind it nor did he use the word "ALL". That's the journalist (and I use that term loosely in regard to that site) in the article speculating that. Secondly, are there troll bot accounts on Twitter and other social media platforms that promote Anti-AEW hate? Of course. I see it everyday just as I see anti -WWE bots out there that promote anti-WWE hate. Twitter is a very messy place and a lot of times it's not indicative of fans who actually go to shows. I would be very interested in seeing the data from that independent study.
"Who’d pay for such a *wildly* expensive thing?" That's a quote from his tweet.
No, he didn't say WWE outright, but it doesn't take a genius to decipher who he thinks is behind whatever smear campaign he thinks exists.
He actually just clarifed his statements.
Wrestling Inc. reached out to Khan for comment and got the following response:
“Waiting for final study but here’s what my expert confirmed. It’s people with real live accounts making posts and then using their bots to manipulate the social channel algorithm by backing them up with engagement from a made-up Twitter identity. Social media teams will often fight on this. Bots are great for numbers and when they’re gone, you’ll see a dip in digital conversation impressions – both those were either negative sentiment or not real anyway.
“For example, I tweet Megha only eats rotten bananas. I throw say 18 bots behind it (which takes about 5 minutes to do). Twitter security can’t differentiate when done well (neither can most social teams). The problem becomes every time people type Megha into the search bar, because of a real account supported by bots- the first suggested result would be tweets about Megha eating rotten bananas. I’m oversimplifying, but that’s the 5 cent version of what’s happening.”
I think the sentiment of what TK is ultimately trying to prove is the AEW hate is over exaggerated. His point is if you hate AEW that's fine and dandy but don't unethically use troll bot accounts on social media to over exaggerate that hate. I don't believe TK is tone deaf to criticism as long as it's done in a constructive way.
It would be good to have ROH on a better network and time slot than what it was on Sinclair media. I remember I had to watch ROH at midnight on Saturday nights. Then they ran the previous week's episode on Sunday mornings around 11:00 a.m.
Yes sir!
May they have a wonderful marriage.
I personally thought it was 5 stars but Meltzer saw it differently. Probably wasn't long enough for him.
Walter on Smackdown. I can get with this. Ludwig Kaiser WTF? But it's better than Butch
