I will give All Out the edge over WM 17...only b/c how WM17 ended. Vince coming out and interfering fucc'd what would've been a flawless, all time classic match by Rock and Stone Cold.

The audible should've been called to just let them cook w/o Vince muckin it up.
Yeah the finish to that match always tainted that main event for me. It's cool but I prefer the other 2 Rock and Austin matches just because of the finish but holy shit fans swear that's the GOAT show, there are a hand full of ppvs I personally would put over Mania 17. Still a solid ppv tho. Idk if All Out is better but as far as the excitement I def think it was more exciting then WM 17 by a few hairs.

It was noted in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that editor Dave Meltzer had talked with a Stanford sports business professor, who has followed the AEW product.

“I had a discussion with a sports business professor at Stanford who has followed the AEW business and put a market value of the product at $400 million right now,” Meltzer wrote.

Meltzer made a related comment on Twitter this week when a fan joked about AEW President Tony Khan hosting a podcast called “4 Weeks,” a reference to WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff’s “83 Weeks” podcast, named after how WCW Nitro beat WWE RAW in the ratings for 83 straight weeks.

Meltzer responded, “I think it’ll be called how I turned a $25 million investment into a company worth $400 million in two plus years.”

 
That DotR episode outchea mucking up guys careers. Well...that plane ride from hell did that. Lol
 
Either AEW need to let the winner of these Casino battle royals win the championship or just stop having the new arrivals win and then take way too early losses. There's no way in hell Ruby beating Britt. Lance Archer never been put in anything good after losing his shot with Moxley, Brian Cage going through the same thing. You just cutting the newbies legs from under them before they truly get started
 
The fact Tommy had nothing to do with any of the nonsense that happened but he went on there and got himself in the same amount of trouble as the dude he was defending if not more
 
AEW has announced a new working relationship with The Owen Hart Foundation to honor the legacy of the late wrestler.


The partnership will include the annual Owen Hart Cup Tournament in AEW. The winner of the tournament will receive a Cup known as “The Owen.”


AEW will also produce and distribute unique & original Owen merchandise, which includes Owen being featured in the upcoming AEW console video game. Merchandise to be released includes action figures, apparel, posters, and collectable items.


“AEW’s relationship with the Hart family dates back to our inaugural pay-per-view event, Double or Nothing in 2019, and Owen’s influence is still felt today,” said AEW CEO, General Manager and Head of Creative Tony Khan. “To extend his memory and his legacy even further through this agreement is a powerful and meaningful moment for the entire wrestling community.”


Dr. Martha Hart, Owen’s widow who runs The Owen Hart Foundation, said the foundation is extremely pleased to partner with AEW as they trust Khan and his team. She called the partnership a special gift to all of Owen’s fans.


“The Owen Hart Foundation is extremely pleased to partner with AEW in this wonderful joint venture to honor Owen’s substantial international wrestling career and the lasting influence he and his craft has had in the sport. AEW’s Owen Hart Cup Tournament serves as a tremendous tribute to Owen and provides an incredible way for professional wrestling enthusiasts to celebrate his work in a most fitting way. We trust that Tony Khan and his amazing AEW team will do a brilliant job with this highly anticipated project. This OHF/AEW partnership is my special gift to all of Owen’s magnificent loyal fans who forever remember him and his inspiring repertoire of talents,” Martha said.
