Quoted By: >>10367859 >>10368155

>Whatever the final number is, it will be down from last year's 165,000 buys, helped by CM Punk going for his first AEW World title, the first-ever Anarchy in the Arena match, and the buzz surrounding whether MJF would appear for his match with Wardlow given the subsequent controversy when he skipped a Saturday autograph session and went radio silent to management.

>The number will continue a range AEW has been falling in with their last four PPV offerings: June 2023's Forbidden Door (140,000 range), September 2023's All Out (140,000 range), November 2023's Full Gear (140,000 range), and the aforementioned Revolution from this past March (145,000 range).

Besides the four pillars match and Anarchy in the Arena it was a weak card.

Talking about revenue is pointless when it comes to AEW. As we all know, Tony has yet to make a profit from this and likely never will. What's important to note is that the interest in AEW keeps lowering.

They haven't had a number this bad since early 2021. They are objectively in the shitter right now. There's no shift in momentum. The momentum keeps pointing downward.

Just realized that was Dave's autistic, passive-aggressive way of putting NXT over (he likes HHH) as if they would have done even better, while also taking a shot at AEW by implying they are down because of some fault in the booking (he's mad Punk is coming back and getting focused on by Tony instead of the Elite)

Only Cody and Punk actually tried to build storylines properly for PPV matches. Jericho and Elite try but it is often a clusterfuck, whether that ia the talent's fault or bookings fault, I dunno.
>>10367859
The numbers include overseas services where you subscribe for a month for 10 dollars or whatever and get the PPV, plus AEW splits revenues with providers, so we have no idea of the real number, but 140k in 2023 is not bad, only problem is the numbers supposedly going down despite growing the roster

They also always do something where there is a continous prop used so they can callback to it, this time being the screwdriver, which was previously the hammer with the Death Triangle feud.
