There was a very WEIRD part of the media scrum after all in with Tony . Dave asked him about the gate/PPV buys and it led into Tony to go into a sombering rant about “2nd chances”. I’m going to paraphrase Tony here
> AEW at point was in such a hot place. We had this great night at the L.A forum show with Dynamite last summer . But by the time it was over , we were in a really challenging position. You don’t get a lot of 2nd chances in life. When that week started we had Bryan danielson, Adam Cole ,and cm punk all healthy and MJF was an active part of the roster . By the end of the week ,3 of those guys were hurt and MJF walked out of the company .
> tonight the show was the biggest it’s ever been and it’s best it’s ever been . You don’t get a lot of 2nd chances in life to get back when you were that hot. I felt like tonight was that shot to get back to being hot again and I think we are .
> 2nd chance for Saraya to get back into the ring be the star again of the divison
> 2nd chance for Adam Cole when he first came in he was red hot then a variety of reasons (injuries?) he got cooled off, tonight he’s red hot again
> the acclaimed , red hot when they won the titles then tonight Tony feels their red hot again. Sounds like acclaimed lost a lot of allure?
> MJF got a 2nd chance after he shoot left the company according to Tony . He put Tony in a bad situation. Now he’s hotter than he’s ever been .
This was strange . This was towards the end of the media scrum when Dave asked his question.
