Estimates by Wrestletix, charts from Wrestlenomics.
Based on the stats, Brandon explained that this quarter, Dynamite would be the lowest since AEW returned to tour, meanwhile Raw and Smackdown are on stronger trend.
He also states about PPV buys for Full Gear, even though Tony Khan indicated that it is going to be in the range of 140k, he will be surprised that’s a good estimate.
Last two PPVs did about 140k buys(He initially reported that Forbidden Door did 127k buys, but recently added late buys and purchases through NJPWWorld), but he thinks Full Gear is going to be substantially lower than either those.
He linked this decline in AEW's business to a decline in its brand perception, even though the quality of their products is still pretty good, but he cited the effectiveness of their communication and their talent's behavior and leadership issues, and a lack of discipline with all those titles that are currently sprawled out as the main causes of the problem.
He thinks Tony Khan is exhibiting a classic business distraction and getting preoccupied with ROH stuff which trying to grow as a third TV brand.
