WBD lost NBA, but they have been spending that money on college football, expanded baseball coverage, the French Open, and NASCAR. My point is, I am not sure how much they will have for a huge AEW increase as people are expecting.
Not to mention, WBD has a mountain of debt they need to deal with. They aren't going to give AEW a better deal without the NBA. If anything, it'll be worse.
@@AyaReikoTripleElite I think they will get a bump, but nowhere near what has been rumored. I think part of the deal will be moving PPVs to streaming on Max.
Though these events are annual spectacles, is it worth it to replace a content that airs on a weekly basis? I know they still have the NHL but it’s not a major draw.
It's worse than that. NXT isn't just a c show. It's a developmental brand, it's a separate subsidiary. It'll be like Ted Turner celebrating because WCW's flagship Nitro had done better than Florida Championship Wrestling, and then assuming that means he had beaten WWF. It's an even weirder thing to be proud about.
That WWE developmental brand got better ratings than AEW Dynamite this week. NXT: 718,000 AEW: 681,000 Last week AEW: 790,000 NXT: 768,000 Both shows loss viewers from the previous week but AEW losing 109,000 viewers to NXT losing 50,000 is alarming. AEW loss more than twice the viewers NXT did from the previous week.

The Young Bucks were not the creators of the Bullet Club. Prince, Finn Balor is a founder of the Bullet Club. The Young Buck like AJ Styles, Omega and the Good Brothers were in the Bullet Club. AEW began to tank once Cody left, he worked for AEW for months without a contract. CM Punk rose AEW’s numbers but nothing like a Roman appearance, aka needle mover.
Actually you’re half wrong on The Good Brothers. It was The Real Shooter Prince Devitt and Machine Gun Karl Anderson who formed The Bullet Club, hence the name Bullet Club. They were joined by Bad Boy Tama Tonga and The Underboss Bad Luck Fale (I really miss Devitt coming to the ring on Fale’s shoulders. But yeah The Young Bucks were nothing more than the Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team in The Bullet Club. They were almost mascots
I remember when I liked AEW, then Brawl Out happened, and I lost all respect for them. Even as a Punk hater, they couldn't get me to side against him how do you fuck up that hard?
That's a thing McMahon for all of his faults had over all the other promoters, he turns that stuff into storylines. Tony just prays that it blows over And they have the audacity to try that Elite vs aew storyline out NOW lmao
@1KQ_ It really doesn't work when I got all my friends who watch AEW asking me, "Didn't Tony revoked EVP status from them?" So they really failed establishing kayfabe existing that they can't even properly profit off the fuck up
@@1KQ_ Exactly. Perfect example: After the Montreal Screwjob, it took Vince less than a month to correct course, introduce the ‘Mr McMahon’ character, and use it to push the other talent. Tony let the drama fester, while his EVPs turned the public against one of his top stars. The fact that all of AEW’s best storylines were in the locker room, and Tony didn’t make a dime off of any of it (in fact, he lost money), lets you know how incompetent he is.
Losing the NBA does not help AEW, it actually hurts it. WBD will no longer get the ad revenue the NBA generated. Revenue that likely helped subsidize AEW. And WBD has a fuckton of debt it needs to deal with. They're almost certainly going to be in cost cutting mode, and AEW is at ground zero.
Tony needs to watch the death of WCW and pay close attention not to Bischoff not to Nash not Goldberg or Bret or listen to FN Dave or Ric Flair. But listen to every word Neil Pruitt says rewind and replay until he knows every word by heart. Tony and AEW are cooked there is No saving AEW.
Right off the bat: I really don’t think there’s much of a crossover of AEW fans and NHL fans/NBA fans. Don’t let them get away with using everything as an excuse lmao “THE EUROPEAN WATER POLO CHAMPIONSHIP WAS ON THATS WHY AEW’S VIEWS WERE DOWN”
I believe TK is catering to a niche wrestling fan that doesnt want their wrestling to resemble WWE in any way, and TK is catering to that audience, and its driving potential viewers and casual viewers away from the product. Because, wrestling is and has always been synonymous with WWE, so its an exercise in futility at this point, to try and win the war that way because wrestling fans are conditioned to see wrestling through a WWE lense.
But he resembles them more and more every day, the Sudden change of camera angles, Christopher Daniel's turning into an authority figure similar to Adam Pierce, the KOTR title concept, I can go on Based on how fast Tony khan tweeted at Ariel Helwani literal seconds after his segment ended on Smackdown leading into the Elimination chamber Tony Khan watches WWE with a magnifying glass and wants to be them.
I think Tony doesn't want to have storylines because wrestlers keep getting injured and ruining long term plans . He could just make new story with plans when that happens but that's too hard.
I don't think you can say the Bucks were the masterminds of the Bullet Club. They were an established brand in NJPW that the Bucks and Cody just glommed onto.
Bruh I fully disagree with the AEW could do no wrong in it's first 3 years on TV. They did alot of wrong and what we see now has been going on from their early days. They did have bright spots but they were getting a pass from people, because they were the new thing and ppl was mad at WWE/VKM. Again it wasn't all horrible with AEW and I believe Cody helped with alot of stuff. IF people were honest and saying HEY they better fix that and HEY TK that shiii ain't gonna work, HEY TK better get on this lack of good storylines. NAW some ppl and "reporters" pumped rainbows up their ass and this is the full blown outcome = HE BOOKS FOR THE SICKOS...People pointed this out and ended up called a hater and a E-drone. Felt like Will Farrell from Zoolander like it's the same face.
TNT is in negotiations with the NBA for a smaller package. WBD has a matching clause and if they sue over that it’s lasting longer than a year. Giving them a smaller package works best for everyone.
I remember back in the heyday of LOLTNA, Alvarez had a pretty good reply to people who called him a hater: "If TNA was doing great right now, I'd own a fucking gold plated boat." More wrestling equals more money for the cottage industries that surround pro-graps; on the other hand, a company booking itself out of relevance, if not into the ground, does no one any favors, especially NOT the podcasters or 'journalists'.

There is rumours going around that WBD is trying to get a cheaper fourth tv rights package for the NBA that might include regular season and playoff games, If they are able to get said fourth tv package AEW could be low balled.
Dude you are my new fav RUclipsr. I can always rely on you too make me laugh my butt off. Even on the worst of days if I’ve seen you upload I forget about what fresh hell is going on in my life. Sit back, take a hit, and enjoy
Usually Big Bang Theory lead in viewership inflated AEW Dynamite's first 30 minutes viewership. Getting like 900k - 1 million viewership lead in before crushing down to below 700k. Sometimes to inflate it further they started a few minutes earlier. Sometimes to inflate the final viewership they overshoot the airing by a few minutes, getting viewership from people who want to watch Modern Family. What happened the last few weeks was NBA playoff viewership stole away some of BBT viewership so they had much lower lead in viewership. Some AEW fans also already moved away since the CM Punk - Jack Perry video.
When I refer to these SmackDown shows as B shows, I don't mean in terms of quality. I only mean they were treated by WWE as a B Show. When Cena was getting over like crazy on SD, they sent him to Raw. Even when SD i was better, until SmackDown went to Fox, Raw was always treated as the Flagship.
The fact that they only have, like, maybe 2 weeks to get a new TV deal done before that negotiation window closes is mind-blowing. Like, talk about procrastination. What really bothers me is that if the negotiation window closes, that WBD/AEW partnership is done. I don't see WBD outbidding for aew, and if aew can't find studios to offer them money. The offer that is currently on the table is gonna be way lower if aew comes crawling back to WBD. WBD is gonna be like, "Couldn't find any other bidders?" "Well we can get you for cheaper" because I seriously doubt theirs a market out there for AEW. When WWE were doing their negotiations, we were talking about FX, Amazon, WBD, Disney, and Netflix. What other studios could be in the running if wbd is out? Oh, that's right. WE DON'T F'ING KNOW.

AEW loss more than twice the viewers NXT did from the previous week.
Th tv deal timeline is a little weird. It’s proven that Kahn good friend go then the deal they are on now. The first deal was basically week to week then the signed a deal. Seem like they rush to get on TV on the same time NXT got on tv.
What? NXT going to TV was a reaction to AEW. A smart move by WWE for sure that has paid off in the long run as far as setting up a third TV product, but definitely revisionist history to act like it was the other way around.
They can’t use the nba or nhl as excuses. There is always something on tv you have to compete with. NFL, tv specials other wrestling shows you have to find a way. And AEW can’t find away, the honeymoon is over, no more dream matches to book. Now you actually have to be creative and get on the grind like everyone else
The original Meltzer tweet and Cody reply, the founding bet as it were… are we sure that was genuine and not a marketing gimmick? It created buzz and interest, made it seem like this spontaneous thing, when in reality it was just a big show getting booked, which is way less interesting and doesn’t generate attention.
Remember when you were adamant that Swerve is a temporary champion whos dropping the belt to Will Osprey at Wembley this August.. but apparently Swerve and Will Osprey are wrestling June 30th at the forbidden door ppv in Long Island for the AEW championship...🤔
Why doesn’t aew do characters?? The reason there is no stories is bc the wrestlers don’t use characters they go by their real names in aew!! I just don’t get it! Wrestling is about character development and stories nobody is watching wrestling to see these 6 star bangers except a few geeks on the internet. The attitude era was so successful bc they had strong characters and stories the matches weren’t even that good then!! I get the business has changed but if aew wants to be successful they need to start drawing people in with good stories and characters!! Make dynamite must see leave the viewer wondering what’s going to happen next and get them talking!! Back in the day you would go to school or work and it’s all anybody would be talking about what’s gonna happen next or did you see so and so on raw this week!? Nothing happens on dynamite if you miss the show you pretty much didn’t miss anything at all!’
@@xzenitramx666which is funny because wwe didn’t invent characters. They must think Vince invented MACHO MAN, SUPERSTAR BILLY GRAHAM, the king Jerry lawler… even American dream dusty rhodes was a character to a degree. They don’t know how to use their stage names.
@@aerodynamicsalamander in which part of my statement I said anything about WWE creating the concept of characters?, my statement was about aew trying to be different and nothing else, did you leave in another universe or youre that dense?
lol i remember being so hyped for AEW in the early days and thinking it was somewhat decent outta thirst for something new. now when i go back and watch im like "wow this was always pretty bad". there are certain arcs and roster members that have some worthwhile content (Cody, Punk, MJF), but as an overall show/product its been outright bad from the start, we were just optimistic enough to give it a chance originally.
The thing is, when AEW eventually go under, there will take a lot a time to another alternative to WWE to show up, if ever... And when we complaim that there's no alternative out there, Tony Khan and the midia will turn this on us, and say that they tried to give us an alternative but we reject it, but, while we do want an alternative, we want it to be good, that's something they usually don't understand
My problem with meltzer is he everywhere in aew even in the video game itself, also why is ospreay already in the world title scene? He just won the international title
i really believe the wwe is working with tna to try and help them take aew spot on tnt . wwe could do crossovers with ufc and some wwe stars on their show. they could be helping tna out behind the scenes with discovery .discovery could pay a lot less for tna to be on tnt but could yield bigger ratings if wwe ufc is working with them
Also to add WBD is 40 billion dollars in debt and that's not looking good. If they can get a deal, cool but i believe they're going to be lowballled just like the NBA. The difference is AEW isn't having that pull the NBA got due to their competition, Identity between Basketball and TNT/TBS, and low ratings
Dude, you WAY over low how successful & good they were at the beginning. For someone who had never heard of them, that person would think it was some grand thing. No! It actually hasn’t changed very much. The fans are just tired of it already. The newness has worn off. It’s time to step it up. But, the way you talk about AEW the first 5 minutes…? Dude! You’ve hit problems. Lol!
Basically, AEW can hope to get something along the lines of the deal that Indycar got with Fox, but with WBD. I mean WBD lost the NBA but has Baseball, the NHL and is bringing back NASCAR sharing that deal with Amazon... Hell, at this point they might only be offered the kind of deal that the NHRA has with Fox
If WBD lose AEW I wouldn't be suprised, those guy can make good decision and that was before WB merged with Discovery, that merge just make everything worse and is keep getting worse.

First time I saw a bullet club T-shirt. I thought it was a second amendment T-shirt, the bullet club is irrelevant nowadays and NWO is still remembered very fondly in the hearts of fans
If anything thinks that AEW is going to fill the huge void left by the NBA, you are definitely high as FUCK!!!!
Prince devitt started the bullet club not the counterfeit bucks they were still in TNA when bullet club started
TNA was more competitive than AEW. They went against Raw, not OVW/NXT.
AEW Is Horrible!
There is rumours going around that WBD is trying to get a cheaper fourth tv rights package for the NBA that might include regular season and playoff games, If they are able to get said fourth tv package AEW could be low balled.
Man , these edits are kinda aesthetics or something like that❤
This video is 7stars
🤩
You are making too much of a deal about aew beating the 3rd string show. 😂😂😂😂
The super dave spot. As the saying goes "that's good sh*t!"😅
I love these videos man. Keep up the great work!
TWEETS: 130,000🤣🤣🤣
Dude you are my new fav RUclipsr. I can always rely on you too make me laugh my butt off. Even on the worst of days if I’ve seen you upload I forget about what fresh hell is going on in my life. Sit back, take a hit, and enjoy
Love to hear that!! Thank you so much
Usually Big Bang Theory lead in viewership inflated AEW Dynamite's first 30 minutes viewership. Getting like 900k - 1 million viewership lead in before crushing down to below 700k. Sometimes to inflate it further they started a few minutes earlier.
Sometimes to inflate the final viewership they overshoot the airing by a few minutes, getting viewership from people who want to watch Modern Family.
What happened the last few weeks was NBA playoff viewership stole away some of BBT viewership so they had much lower lead in viewership. Some AEW fans also already moved away since the CM Punk - Jack Perry video.
"Tony Tunes" 😂
Mid 2000's Smackdown wasn't the B show, that was mid 2010's Smackdown
When I refer to these SmackDown shows as B shows, I don't mean in terms of quality. I only mean they were treated by WWE as a B Show. When Cena was getting over like crazy on SD, they sent him to Raw. Even when SD i
was better, until SmackDown went to Fox, Raw was always treated as the Flagship.
You do know NXT is WWE's 3rd brand? A developmental brand. 😂
The fact that they only have, like, maybe 2 weeks to get a new TV deal done before that negotiation window closes is mind-blowing. Like, talk about procrastination. What really bothers me is that if the negotiation window closes, that WBD/AEW partnership is done. I don't see WBD outbidding for aew, and if aew can't find studios to offer them money. The offer that is currently on the table is gonna be way lower if aew comes crawling back to WBD. WBD is gonna be like, "Couldn't find any other bidders?" "Well we can get you for cheaper" because I seriously doubt theirs a market out there for AEW. When WWE were doing their negotiations, we were talking about FX, Amazon, WBD, Disney, and Netflix. What other studios could be in the running if wbd is out? Oh, that's right. WE DON'T F'ING KNOW.
Well done!
Just found ur channel and running thru ur documentaries and subscribed in Swahili
We’re gonna be chain smoking on that AEW pack soon.
Somebody please post the link of the Super Mario Dave Meltzer video I want to send Jim cornette that shit.

That WWE developmental brand got better ratings than AEW Dynamite this week.
NXT: 718,000
AEW: 681,000
Last week
AEW: 790,000
NXT: 768,000
Both shows loss viewers from the previous week but AEW losing 109,000 viewers to NXT losing 50,000 is alarming. AEW loss more than twice the viewers NXT did from the previous week.
Th tv deal timeline is a little weird. It’s proven that Kahn good friend go then the deal they are on now. The first deal was basically week to week then the signed a deal. Seem like they rush to get on TV on the same time NXT got on tv.
What? NXT going to TV was a reaction to AEW. A smart move by WWE for sure that has paid off in the long run as far as setting up a third TV product, but definitely revisionist history to act like it was the other way around.
ECW didn't push to make WWF more edgy... WCW did. Get facts straight.
nintendo's gonna have a field day with that one section lol, might wanna have a backup just in case
I see you with those Kendrick quotes.
They can’t use the nba or nhl as excuses. There is always something on tv you have to compete with. NFL, tv specials other wrestling shows you have to find a way. And AEW can’t find away, the honeymoon is over, no more dream matches to book. Now you actually have to be creative and get on the grind like everyone else
The original Meltzer tweet and Cody reply, the founding bet as it were… are we sure that was genuine and not a marketing gimmick? It created buzz and interest, made it seem like this spontaneous thing, when in reality it was just a big show getting booked, which is way less interesting and doesn’t generate attention.
Remember when you were adamant that Swerve is a temporary champion whos dropping the belt to Will Osprey at Wembley this August.. but apparently Swerve and Will Osprey are wrestling June 30th at the forbidden door ppv in Long Island for the AEW championship...🤔
Why doesn’t aew do characters?? The reason there is no stories is bc the wrestlers don’t use characters they go by their real names in aew!! I just don’t get it! Wrestling is about character development and stories nobody is watching wrestling to see these 6 star bangers except a few geeks on the internet. The attitude era was so successful bc they had strong characters and stories the matches weren’t even that good then!! I get the business has changed but if aew wants to be successful they need to start drawing people in with good stories and characters!! Make dynamite must see leave the viewer wondering what’s going to happen next and get them talking!! Back in the day you would go to school or work and it’s all anybody would be talking about what’s gonna happen next or did you see so and so on raw this week!? Nothing happens on dynamite if you miss the show you pretty much didn’t miss anything at all!’
Thats because they want to be unique and away from anything WWE related.
@@xzenitramx666which is funny because wwe didn’t invent characters. They must think Vince invented MACHO MAN, SUPERSTAR BILLY GRAHAM, the king Jerry lawler… even American dream dusty rhodes was a character to a degree. They don’t know how to use their stage names.
@@aerodynamicsalamander in which part of my statement I said anything about WWE creating the concept of characters?, my statement was about aew trying to be different and nothing else, did you leave in another universe or youre that dense?
@@xzenitramx666 wasn’t saying YOU. Just saying THEY think that lol
@@aerodynamicsalamander you reply to my comment.
lol i remember being so hyped for AEW in the early days and thinking it was somewhat decent outta thirst for something new. now when i go back and watch im like "wow this was always pretty bad". there are certain arcs and roster members that have some worthwhile content (Cody, Punk, MJF), but as an overall show/product its been outright bad from the start, we were just optimistic enough to give it a chance originally.
SuperDave vs Cornette with his tennis racket
So *creative* man. 😅
The thing is, when AEW eventually go under, there will take a lot a time to another alternative to WWE to show up, if ever... And when we complaim that there's no alternative out there, Tony Khan and the midia will turn this on us, and say that they tried to give us an alternative but we reject it, but, while we do want an alternative, we want it to be good, that's something they usually don't understand
My problem with meltzer is he everywhere in aew even in the video game itself, also why is ospreay already in the world title scene? He just won the international title
If the Young Bucks were the masterminds of Bullet Club than I'm Magnum TA.
I wonder if britt Baker and Kenny omega coming back will help their ratings.
If they come back
Bro early AEW is trash lmao like it has great points ofc but bro they was pushing the Dark order and shit was trash
THIS CHANNEL IS FABULOUS THAT DAVE MELTZER MARIO WITH JIM CORNETTE PURE CHEF'S 💋
Theres a coconut dr pepper? Who let the office crackhead back into the idea room?
They got spicy Coca-Cola now. We are in end times.
I’m an AEW fan but can’t lie I love Alfred videos because he brings actual facts and helps me see things all around🤘🏾🤘🏾🔥
LOLOLOLOLOLOL thx for keeping track 🙄 gonna need a bigger bag luv the credentials next time send a resume
This was BRILLIANT!!!!! You are SO creative yo!
Thank you so much!! Our team put it down!
i really believe the wwe is working with tna to try and help them take aew spot on tnt . wwe could do crossovers with ufc and some wwe stars on their show. they could be helping tna out behind the scenes with discovery .discovery could pay a lot less for tna to be on tnt but could yield bigger ratings if wwe ufc is working with them
I think they should sign hulk hogan and Eric biscoff for creative!!
Tony should try to get a Disney deal.
Never thought I would get an aew insecure reference but here we are 😭😭😂😂😂
👏🏾
Tony is the problem he’s not a boss he’s a friend
Also to add WBD is 40 billion dollars in debt and that's not looking good. If they can get a deal, cool but i believe they're going to be lowballled just like the NBA. The difference is AEW isn't having that pull the NBA got due to their competition, Identity between Basketball and TNT/TBS, and low ratings
I always forget punk debuted on rampage
BRO THAT FLASHING IS KILLING MY EYES.
no joke. legit headache wtf.
FLASHING LIGHTS WARNING FOR THOSE WHO NEED IT!!!!!!
def not subbing to this.....
Dude, you WAY over low how successful & good they were at the beginning. For someone who had never heard of them, that person would think it was some grand thing.
No! It actually hasn’t changed very much. The fans are just tired of it already. The newness has worn off. It’s time to step it up.
But, the way you talk about AEW the first 5 minutes…? Dude! You’ve hit problems. Lol!
Excellent video
Even Taker, the steadfast and loyal emperor and conscience of WWE, said he hopes AEW gets their shit together.
Basically, AEW can hope to get something along the lines of the deal that Indycar got with Fox, but with WBD. I mean WBD lost the NBA but has Baseball, the NHL and is bringing back NASCAR sharing that deal with Amazon... Hell, at this point they might only be offered the kind of deal that the NHRA has with Fox
This is the one and only video that will ever use "thot" and Tony Kahn in the same sentence 😂
Dr.pepper has surpassed pepsi as second favorite nationally. I like your content so ill let you slide
If WBD lose AEW I wouldn't be suprised, those guy can make good decision and that was before WB merged with Discovery, that merge just make everything worse and is keep getting worse.
If WWE does a WCW themed NXT/or PLE with the WCW ring pop then it might be the nail in the AEW coffin
