>>12868182AEW did better ratings and crowds before Phil showed up. Phil "conveniently" showed up right after all the COVID restrictions were lifted and there was a ground swell of organic interest in live events and pro-wrestling with crowds. So now both him and his tranny fanbase will disingenuously claim he was in anyway responsible for that natural resurgence in interest, even though the exact same thing happened in WWE (difference is that WWE has actual draws like Roman Reigns so they were able to retain and fan that renewed interest, unlike AEW who was stuck with dimeless shitters like Phil). Collision being such an unmitigated disaster should put to bed any delusions of him being a consistent draw.
