There's no such thing as "destructive boos" if you're a heel or at least trending in that direction.
They key is to get a reaction, whether you love him or hate him, just like Punk said last week on Collision.
This isn't Cody Rhodes in AEW right before he left where he was getting booed while still trying to be a babyface.
See I didn’t even know Punk was a heel. Thought he was a face.

And to me there’s a difference. Roman boos a few years ago wasn’t it. And Wwe knew it which is why they piped crowd noise in.

He is a "face". He got cheered in his hometown. He got booed in Canda largely because Omega is Canadian. Going forward is the telling point of how to handle his character. If he continues to get a booed then he's clearly gonna go full heel. Even with a split crowd Punk would likely just go heel.
 
Compared to WWE, which is what the other poster was comparing it to, yes.
As a standalone one-off wrestling show, it's a great crowd and gate.

I still wouldn't use the term "niche". AEW regularly pulls in good to great ppv gates. Is it as big as WWE? Of course not but it's big enough to surpass the term "niche". Niche to me is a promotion like GCW where you're doing hardcore/garbage wrestling in a hotel ballroom or bingo hall. That's niche.
 
Fellas, I just went back and watched Forbidden Door this morning!!..WOW, This was another damn good Forbidden Door!! :yes:...All the matches were good and action packed.. I like how the crowd was hype and into the show!!....Damn that Omega vs Osprey match had live up to the hype!!..:yes:..That match was fucking insane!!..They might have to run that match again!!..Also, that Danielson vs Okada match was damn good as well...Danielson matches never disappoint!!..i hope we can get another match with them as well..:yes:



Overall, This was a great Forbidden Door!!...This is one of the AEW PPV's we are going to be looking forward watching for years to come!!...Good job TK!!..:thumbsup:
 
:lol: Punk getting booed loud!



Punk fans trying to do a "CM Punk" chant but getting booed back down. Now we're getting a Kojima chant.

Turned out to be a good match but Punk's ring work is sloppy as fuck. That GTS looked like shit.

Heel turn definitely coming. He's a better heel anyways.

People are getting tired of Punk BS!!...They booed the shit outta him!!.. :lol: ..They might as well make him a heel now, I think for here on out he's going to get booed(not in the Chi..:lol:).....Fuck him!!..I hope the fans keep booing his ass!!
 
And there it is! Heel turn! Now ditch the Jungle Boy gear and rebrand his gimmick. Time to put Anna Jay with him as well.
















I kinda knew that jungle boy was going to turn heel..On last week Rampage, he was getting booed!!..he was like WTF!!...I think that had set it up for him to turn heel...

lolz @XXXplosive getting corrected by @Mastermind2002


I agree, they are beyond niche. AEW doesn't have household name recognition yet, but they are beyond niche at this point.
 
Yeah, I don't know what my man is talking about niche crowd!!..That place was fully packed and hype for that PPV show!!..

I'm talking specifically about the people tuning in for 'Forbidden Door', the ones that know all the Japanese wrestlers.
Not AEW's audience overall.
Compared to WWE's audience, yes, it is a niche product. I still stand by that. Having a hyped crowd for one night doesn't change that.
 
Just curious, how is Aubrey the worse?
I actually kind of like Aubrey and don't understand why she gets so much hate.
There are much worse refs in AEW, especially the bald guy that referees all the Young Bucks matches who never enforces any kind of rules just so everyone can do their choreographed spots.

Nah bruh. You and everyone knows I'm not an AEW Stan. Didn't watch last night's show, but I hear it went over very well on Twitter and elsewhere.

The amount of tickets they sold in the UK for their Wembley show. Having a good outing in Toronto, Japanese talent or not, shows AEW is a legit number two.

Impact would be niche. AEW has three shows on Cable TV networks that most people recognize. I always forget what station impact is even on.
