>>8367775 Tony is right in that AEW's fate probably isn't going to be that it straight-up ends one night and has a definitive date of death like WCW.
But AEW's fate is going to be a lot like TNA's, I think. TNA still technically lives but it's called something else, run by different people, had their stars all poached by WWE, and most important of all: they are far less relevant than fifteen years ago (really saying something, since even at their peak they were still a distant second to 2nd). That's where I think AEW will be by 2035.
But TNA's decline was helped along by money problems. AEW is a billionaire manchild's pet project and I wonder how that's going to play in to things. Tony is passionate about what he thinks is pro wrestling too, and that's going to make AEW's decline a lot more interesting than TNA's gradual decline in to silence. Or maybe Tony will just get tired of playing with his toys and sell it lol
tl;dr - 2038 AEW is going to be irrelevant like 2022 TNA/Impact
