What everyone says: "Ticket sales are down."
What actually is happening: "Ticket sales per show are down, ticket sales per week are, I'm pretty sure, up. This is what happens when you add a second show."
What everyone says: "AEW is ice cold."
What actually is happening: "The people actually watching the show are loving it. Toni Storm is the most compelling she's ever been in her career, same for Roderick Strong, same for Christian Cage, etc. The devil storyline is a humongous topic of discussion where nobody really has any clue how its ending. Etc."
What everyone says: "Dynamite viewership has plummeted."
What actually is happening: "It's down from it's all-time peak, that's it. Take a look at WWE ratings compared to their all-time peaks lol. Hell, Raw has done most of it's lowest ratings of all time in the last 2-3 months and almost nobody is talking about that, the general Reddit consensus is still that "WWE bOomIng let thEm coOkzzZ." When AEW starts regularly hitting "all time lows" like Raw then we can start freaking out a bit, but even then it's to be expected at some point because cable tv is dying.
