C.E.NO wasn't as cringe here as she normally is. When she doesn't do that over the top C.E.O shtick and just talk straight with purpose she's much better. In regard to Willow her promos have improved a lot since she first came to AEW she just needs to knock off the grunting when she gets mad.



Brother Mastermind2002, This segment right here got me thinking that Kris Statlander is going to turn heel..Maybe at the upcoming PPV!!...I still say that this is some BS that Mercedes Mone is getting a Title shot in her first match!!..This is some BS!!..:smh:
 
He should have been on first and cut a promo as the champ after his win on Sunday.
There was really no need for him to have a match tonight.
Instead they had "Pockets" out there first in a pointless angle.
Meanwhile Swerve just went out there and had a match like he was anyone else on the card.
I agree!!...
 
:lol:HOLY SHIT! The Elite destroy Tony Khan! Jack Perry is a made man now! Love it! Even Tony's dad Shahid Khan came out to check on him. This story actually has potential if they let it cook. Have the Elite take over the show nWo style with TK out of action.





That was crazy!!...:lol:.....On the real, This new Elite is starting to grow on me!!..I'm feeling this!!..:yes:
 
At this time of year it will be hard for wrestling in general to pop a great rating with NBA and NHL playoffs going on. Ratings will be down across the board. Honestly, I'll be happy when wrestling goes to streaming. That way you aren't dependance on an outdated Neilson rating system and fans can just focus on enjoying wrestling.

If it's going to be how it was during the past years, AEW do good around the Summertime and Fall..In the summer, the only thing is going is Baseball.. In the Fall, it's Football..But Football games are on Thurs, Sundays, and Mon Nights!!... :yes:
 
The WWE has no reason to respond, every week the WWE sells more tickets than Aew does in half a year, every night they air a show it triples Aews ratings, WrestleMania made more money in a weekend on the gate than Aew has ever made(spoiler they don't make money at all)

This isn't the Monday night wars as the thread title suggests, this is a Chihuahua biting at the ankles of an elephant.

The only war is between fans who enjoy talking shit online and those who like to stir them up to make money of this perceived "war" lol

Yeah, TK doesn't appear to be an Eric Bischoff.
 
Here's the full match between Hayes and Rhodes. I feel like the WWE has so much talent (including NXT) that they could go to 3 hours and be good, but that may be a bit overkill. Hayes looks like he belongs and will be more than good on one of the main rosters. WWE needs to get more heels at the top of the card.

 
Tony Kahn is an unserious person. The family is wealthy beyond all means and this is all a game to him. If AEW were to cease operations, I think he would just find another project.

With that said, I don't see why AEW is having all of these obstacles to overcome. He's hiring the experienced talent in the ring and behind the scenes. Yet they can't seem to capitalize of any good will they build up.

It's mainly because of how he books his tv shows. If you notice the good will that AEW builds up usually comes off the success of their ppvs. TK understands the formula of how to book ppvs he just doesn't understand how to book tv. It becomes this start/stop kind of momentum dynamic. The ppv starts the momentum then it stops because the follow up (the tv shows) are poor. Solve that and the product will grow.
 
Great match today at STARDOM All Star Grand Queendom between Sareee and Mayu Iwatani. Early Women's MOTY candidate. It's a shame WWE fumbled Sareee in NXT. She's just as talented as Giuila but Vince wanted to give her a stereotypical Japanese schoolgirl gimmick.


Very glad Vince is gone, the amount of stories I've heard from just the last few years of Vince fucking over talent and not seeing potential in clear stars is staggering.

I think if Tony K realized his limitations(and maybe had his autism formally diagnosed) hired some actual writers and an experienced booker, then stepped aside and just became the money guy/a character(if he wanted) AEW would be in a much much better place. The problem is it seems that tony wants to be the saviour of wrestling, he wants to prove that he's smarter than bischoff, Cornett and all the people who have been honestly giving good advice to him through YouTube ECT and he wants to single handedly take on the WWE, and of course please Dave meltzers(who in turn wants to please tk and his new buddies at the dub) In other words he's a god damn moron who can't get out of his own way.
 
This is awful. The number of marquee story lines that have been sidelined due to injuries is wild. Omega, Brody Lee (RIP), Adam Cole, Punk, Hangman, Mox, MJF.
