Brehs, WWE got AEW on the Ropes heading into the Fall season

[Dog Based Gremlin]

They coming out with their big guns and some of the casual AEW buzz is fallin unless you're a die-hard fan watching all their youtube shows, etc

WWE as a whole still trash but you cant deny their new unique attempts to programming

• All Things "The Fiend"
• 24/7 Title being a complete success
• Sasha's Heel Turn
• The mysterious "Who attacked Roman" intriguing storyline
• The New Day vs "The MAGA Powers" (Orton/Revival)
• The OC (stables are always fun)
• Sami being Shinsuke's mouthpiece
• "King of the Ring" Tournament
• Braun's slow burn to challenging Seth for the Universal Title
• NXT moving to USA to go heads up with AEW
• New WWE Network layout (although its trash)
• Todd Chrisley's show is dead

What's AEW got?

man any of that good shyt you just named can be fukked up in a week or two lol. WWE could fukk up a cup of coffee. Don't lose sight of it. They've had a nice couple weeks and that's it.

PPVs that sell out?

its the new hot thing, neckbeards will die down

lets be real, they gon get exposed during week 5 of their weekly show

i'll still watch though

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

theres a dedicated fanbase outside of WWE thats why Chicago, Philly, Boston already sold out shows

WWE product has already been tainted, the fans want NXT style presentation and wrestling and thats not what theyre gonna get in the main brands

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

WWE doesn't have Orange Cassidy

AEW >>> WWE.

“Things E stans will say for $100, Alex.”

 

[Tres Leches]

breh out of all the things you listed the only big/interesting moves for me are #1 Sasha heel turn which should've been done years ago and #2 the NXT move which just shows they want to take AEW out early before they get any momentum




they already messed up KOTR by letting Elias win a match

 

[JerseyBoy23]

Only thing on the list that affects AEW is NXT moving to USA. Orton/Revival might not even last past Night of Champions.

AEW has former Chinese monks trained by CIMA coming in.

Bringing in Joshi wrestlers who aren't being made to conform to the WWE style.

They're emphasizing on tag team wrestling with the tag tournament

Crowning a woman's champion on episode one

Bringing Tony Schiavone back to wrestling

We’ll see what kind of ratings NXT does. Sure they’ll have a head start but AEW has All Out coming up and despite what some will say about it not having a marquee match, they have a great lineup. Bucks vs Lucha Bros. in a ladder match, Kenny vs Mox, Cody vs Spears, Jericho vs Page all have the potential to be great matches.

WWE doesn't have Orange Cassidy

AEW >>> WWE.

And if they did he'd be shyt on for being corny as hell.

 

[Yade]

They’re doing good but remember smackdown 2016 ? That eventually got fumbled too

E stooges

 

[smoove157]

the thing is, AEW really has nothing to lose. they've seen who their fans are, and more importantly (right now), WHERE their fans are. if you can break even on ticket sales for an arena and sell A LOT of concessions, similar to MLB/NFL/NBA and how other Pro Sports operate, you will be good money.

these guys have found something that is better than a niche, but not totally mainstream either.

the people that will buy AEW ppv's and The Elite shirts are very dedicated to their product. as long as they keep giving THOSE people what they want, they will be straight.

supposedly Tony Khan is a Quant type dude, I feel like he ran the numbers and assessed the risk

 

[NoMorePie]

Watch out for finn valor potentially joining heel and joining the oc

Not to say it's rumored, it's just me speculating.
