Yeah that shit sucks when you get an order in from Amazon like that

 

[Griffith]

With what money? He needs to stop playing.

I really think Ross is holding back AEW from having a fresh sound on commentary. He just isn't hip to a lot of what's happening, and he doesn't do a great job of hiding it. I know he's been through a lot over the years.

Depends on who he's calling a match for. He's very locked in when it's Kenny, Samoa Joe, Jay White, Punk, Darby, Swerve, any big men or other people he's familiar with.

Can't expect enthusiasm when he's expected to call matches between shitters lmao.

 

[StringerBell]

AEW needs more of the Elite & Jungle Bitch…

 

[VIBE]

Damn lol

Nice to see I'm not the only person who don't watch that bullshit. Those new hires still not putting the butts in the seats or making the people watch their product.

Playoffs and they also went coast to coast affecting their westcoast viewership.

It speaks volumes that your new World champ out doing a mid card match his first night on TV. No addressing to crowd or advancing new storylines or nothin. Did any other of their champs get this treatment? This some shit you do to someone like Big Show smh.

Any kind of major North American sports event in London would be a goddamn mess.

 

[Griffith]

For what it's worth, Swerve not getting a promo segment on Dynamite was definitely bullshit but at the same time they protected him cos they predicted the low viewership.

He's opening Collision with a promo where they're expecting a strong number due to the lead-in from the playoffs.

 

[Chi-Town B]

We not putting the low number on the playoffs, what was the excuse before the playoffs

I would have much rather seen Swerve take his victory lap from the starting gate but I get it.

Fr. An impacted number wouldn't have helped perceptions of him as champ at all.

Raw was down 300k this week due to the playoffs. It just happens btw.

That's Raw, AEW numbers are always like that. They only go higher when they do a publicity stunt like they did a few weeks ago

But that's factually incorrect. Their numbers are higher than this every week and they finish at a much higher ranking lol.

If they lose 100k and the reason is clearly the playoffs then its not an excuse. All TV was affected the same way.
