And they could have turned it all around by getting over themselves and working with Punk. So called EVPs who dont care that their company is dying and refused to do the one thing that would have given it a shot in the arm and revitalized it.
I feel bad for Tony, so many people selfishly using him while offering nothing but the bare minimum

Bucks put tag teams and trios tags on the map. They highlight talent on Dynamite weekly, they’ve single handedly gotten Orange Cassidy over with just about every demographic wrestling has, and they’re not even done yet. All they want to do is bring guys in and highlight them on Dynamite. Ospreays jumping ship because he’s literal boys with Kenny and the Bucks. They are literally THE ELITE.

No matter how well AEW are doing, internet smarks will pretend the company is collapsing just like they always do. 2023 they beat the world record for highest paid attendance wrestling event in history, and are on track to beat their highest revenue year on record.

Here's something that dumbasses don't seem to understand about how the wrestling business works today. Wrestlers are not paid depending on how the house draws/the PPV buys etc anymore. Wrestlers have guaranteed salaries that they will earn regardless of how the TV tapings and PPVs draw in terms of tickets sold/asses in seats/PPV buys (though I can see Punk being shrewd enough to negotiate for PPV points so he gets paid a piece off PPV buys also.
The Bucks & Kenny have 2 salaries, one as wrestling performers and the other one they make as EVPs which comes with full employee status/benefits. A salary which is also unaffected by how many tickets are sold and how many asses are in seats. They have literally 0 financial incentive to work a programme with Punk, they will make the exact same annual guaranteed salaries they negotiated regardless of whether or not they work that programme. Because wrestlers are not paid "on teh house"/a piece of tickets sold anymore. That's an archaic+ outdated concept in wrestling now where guaranteed downside salaries are the norm now.

Not anymore they don't.
Not in the streaming Television era. Punk was probably the only guy in AEW (aside from Jericho maybe) who would have gotten paid a PPV bonus based on higher performing buyrate. So he has the incentive to do it.

You don't know their revenue as they don't release their quarterly P&L reports. If they were making money they'd release those numbers publicly because it would draw in TV investment or more stars. They don't release P&L statements because they have never turned a profit.

Yeah a private company won't release its Financials unless they are great and want to draw in investment. Lots of private companies release quarterly P&Ls as a way to attract employees, vendors etc. AEW has no problem patting itself on the back, if they were making money they would rush to publicize Financials.

They need television deals and to attract stars. Those could be reasons to publish them, but they haven't and half the AEW audience thinks they made two billion dollars last year and the other half thinks their self valuation of 2billion is accurate. I know why private companies don't release Financials, what I am asking is why anyone in this thread believes they are making money. One gate with more paper than the 96 rumble isn't going to turn a profit, Diminishing gates locally aren't going to help and I have no idea what their TV is producing in terms of revenue because last I heard they were paying to broadcast the product .

The Cucamonga Kids will continue to get paid millions of dollars regardless if Punk works there or not.
The only difference now is that they have an even tighter grip on Tony because they would never hurt him and we always right about that nasty cancerous Punk always starting trouble,

it's gonna be funny when they go back to their old tricks of positive Meltzer comments about AEW, while the ratings keep sliding and they slowly go out of business because they didn't capitalize on Punk when they had the chance because they have no guts

As soon as Collision was announced, schizos on here were pushing the narrative that Tony was paying for the TV time and are still doing it to this day. Don't believe anything you read on this shithole site.

AEW's contracts are mostly guaranteed and don't involve PPV bonuses or a portion of the house or anything. Working with Punk wouldn't have put more money in their pockets. Unless you wanna argue that as EVPs they had a fiduciary obligation to the company to make the most money for it and the way to make the most money for the company was to work with Punk, and you might be right about that, but they also had a right to wait for the guy to prove he wasn't gonna blow his stack again, and, well, he couldn't.

They should probably try not being the worst quarter hour on the show at least once, though, it's starting to get kind of embarassing.

Your big own is that they have a 45 million, maybe 55 million with accelerators for 3 shows when originally they had 1 show with 26 million in overhead? Do you think they are making a profit?

They got the highest contracts of any Tag Team ever without working with him. Also I don’t understand this idea that this program automatically would have drawn millions of dollars. There’s not even a specific program in WWE that draws millions of dollars.

It’s really funny watching people that hate the elite also cry about how a program with the elite would draw millions of dollars. People like Cornette talking about shut up and draw money get over it and draw money. Why can’t Phil just draw that money with someone else? Why is drawing this money dependent on a group of people that you guys have spent years saying are not draws and are worthless to wrestling?

It’s been covered over and over again that aew contracts do not include compensation for ppvs buys, ticket sales or advertising. Working with punk meant nothing for the elite , they wouldn’t have gotten an extra penny if they did the program.

The only possible profit would be from merch sales which I feel like they already have their fans buying their merch . Tony had all to gain but not the workers in this situation. This is where their contracts backfire .

I wish more anons were more educated on this board . We’re better than the other slop out there .

Unfortunately this is true, but not because of Phil or the Massies. It's because Tony Khan is an ADHD mark and not a booker.

Yeah orchestrating a backstage teenage highschool drama against a guy who asks you to do your jobs instead of playing video games and making YouTube videos backstage, until he snaps and then your autistic boss fires him. And he's bybfar the biggest draw in the company. And the only thing anyone cared about.
Big win.
