Monopoly sickness is prevalent in the current landscape of the wrestling business, which is why I strive to spit Facts to the Ceiling! *NO POLITICS TALK HERE.*
AEW estimated revenue numbers:
2020: $64 million
2021: $86 million
2022: $100 million+
2023: $170-175 million
Am still trying to figure out how this company is dying. Someone help me! 😭
From WON - AEW is expected to finish the year grossing $170-175 million in revenue!!! Great numbers and I can’t wait to see their next TV deal numbers
💰
Wait…last time I heard from the pro-WWE community, an executive of a major wrestling promotion should not be saying stuff like this and should focus on their own product. Go figure!
Remember, fans of AEW. If CM Punk leaves, so does his fans (& a ton of revenue for the company). I never heard of top drawing WWE stars being asked to leave because of backstage discord…which happens in every company since the beginning of time. Imagine Twitter in the 1980s. 😂
Wasn’t that small niche internet audience “The Voiceless” whom helped build his star power years ago? This 🤡 is a bigger con artist than Hulk Hogan ever was. I regret ever quoting any of Punk’s lines.
CM Punk gives his thoughts on MJF.
"I think MJF is great and where he wasn’t great is when he catered to that small niche internet audience. There are levels. If that’s their audience. Go for it."

: Un-Honorable Mention - CM PUNK
Earlier this year, in an interview with Ariel Helwani, Punk stated that the company he was terminated from, All Elite Wrestling, is not a real business nor is the promotion about making money. Punk also said that AEW President/CEO,
Four men who deserve mad appreciation for exposing the piece of garbage known as "Corporate Money" Punk.

company's last three major signings were all former AEW talent. Speaks a lot about All Elite Wrestling's presence, doesn't it?
Maxwell Jacob Freeman has already main-evented the single most (paid) attended event in professional wrestling history and did it in less than 5 years. The right team?? 🤣🤣🤣
If anyone has a problem with a successful CEO standing up for HIS promotion against "bad faith actors" who always has something negative to say can unfollow, mute, or even block me. You will NOT like what I have to say on this channel!

Education Time:
WCW: Owned by a corporate entity that did not want to invest time into making it a success.
@AEW
: Owned by an individual who loves his company, employees, & is on the verge of an increase in TV rights.
How is the latter a sinking ship, again?? 🤨
What you are hearing right now is WHY I have recently tuned out of listening to wrestling media podcasts for the most part.
I am telling you right now. If we were cursed with hearing this constant barrage of negativity back in the 80s, there would be no GOLDEN Era.

AEW and Warner’s relationship should not be discussed by anyone who isn’t actually part of the negotiations, TV deals come and go. This is by no means a WCW related issue. Anyone thinking AEW is doomed is clearly in need of a medical evaluation. AEW will survive. This monopoly

While he is a billionaire, the last thing Tony Khan's haters want is for him and WBD to sign a billion television deal. We've seen what Tony has done with his Dad's initial $100 million investment. God help the anti-AEW crowd, if TK gets his hands on that WBD money.
I’m begging a professional wrestling fan to tell me that

And I mean a REAL professional wrestling fan!
The difference between a superstar coming into a thriving company with the right mindset and another trying to be the boss that he's not and squeezing whatever he can out of AEW. All while cashing in his "guaranteed money".
One of the complaints i read about this year's ALL IN was the lack of big mania style staging...well 2024 will have a big ass stage by the looks of it.

Bro, we know that AEW could literally fill up every single seat in the 90K-seated Wembley Stadium and the same bad faith bums will scream the turnstile was 65K.
Looking forward to the BS wrestlenomics and co. pulls in February when AEW makes more history in Australia.
The constant Triple H ‘ass kissing’ from all these current/former WWE employees… you would think this man is running for President of the United States or something. It’s getting pathetic.

What makes this so satisfying is that the biggest stage Sting will ever be on will NOT be in WWE!! As a person who loved WCW (for nearly 35 years) and hated its downfall, this bring me so much JOY. ☺️🙏
Question: How can a person who wrote the book on "Controversy Creates Cash" all of a sudden have a problem with a non-WWE wrestling promotion being controversial? 🤔
#Hypocrisy
Powerhouse Hobbs makes a very important point hidden in his words: If you label AEW as an "alternative", you rest value to the brand, you put it always on a lower level than the fed. AEW is not a small dog, IT'S A BIG DOG IN THA HOOD, stop calling it "alternative".
#AEWDynamite
Haters: If my words of wisdom got you all up in your feelings, it's simply cuz you're just as Downy Sawft as Fraudulent Phil and JD from Hunter's bedside.
Yeah, let's ignore the fact that accidents like this occur in every wrestling company and Moxley was reportedly checking on by at least SEVERAL individuals in the back ... including the AEW owner. Cherry pick away... Endeavour is not hiring you! 🤡

@AEW
is already blocking my “What Went Wrong?” video worldwide.
Maybe the company should work just hard to protect their talent so videos like mine don’t have to be made.
The key to being a PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING fan is to accept the good as well as bad of ALL wrestling shows & not rant each week about now getting what WE personally want (or else). We are privileged to now have more than one major option & should be more humble than ever before!

to stay in their own lane and worry about their own product, yet in the same breath ask, “Why isn’t AEW taking a page out of the Bloodline book?” *COUGH(Bischoff)COUGH*
