He has to pull the trigger on Ospreay winning the title in England, or maybe Kenny vs Okada. It won't get any casual fans in but it's all they've got

So Tony had marked seats for comps to make the show look like it sold better than it did to try to create hype, and has been quietly releasing them?
That's really embarrassing. Where did he learn to do weird dishonest promoter tricks like that?

"Casual fans" are people who watch if they feel like it and the colder your show is the less people will want to watch it. Ospreay isn't well known, he won't make any difference.

Once they announce the card, I expect things to pick up.

Still, though it was still a good show, it wasn't the mega blockbuster it should have been. MJF vs Adam Cole just wasn't that compelling of a main event. When Vince did Wembley, he headlined with Warrior/Savage and Bret/Bulldog and people ate that shit up. He could've done Wembley again with Bret Hart in 94 easily.

Jarrett wouldn't pull fake comps that he'd have to walk back after. It's an inherently retarded move to pretend that you're selling well. He probably learned it from that British mark comedian he hangs out with.
The real question is: how many aew attendances are made up of large percentages of comped seats and how many of them stay empty during the show?

Real journalism is done by the citizens. The reason we got the turnstile count from All In 2023 was because of a random English anon submitting an FOI request.

In wrestling, yeah. That's a problem. The people reporting everything are just harvesting information gathered by random fans. Meanwhile everything that the wrestling journalists actually report are rumours told to then by wrestlers and shit they just made up

It's almost like a wrestler telling the fans he's using real glass, which implies all the other weapons used that night were fake, kills a town.

Just look at how grim this is, bruv. The entire upper deck is a black void. It's so empty they can't even hide it.

They sold 75k when people thought it would be a Punk Mainevent. Tony bought another 6k+, but once the Adam Cole main event was announced people just didn't want to go and Tony couldn't give away his papered tickets.

Yeah, but I mean historically. How many of these big attendances that were reported were actually 66% full at best?
Why was no one in the "wrestling journalism business" doing the bare minimum and fact checking the attendances?

because they arent journalists just like getters that only care about getting likes and being praised for leaking stories before anyone else (which they rarely do and its 90% wrong). they dont care to dig into something like batman they just wanna get those notifications of you got another twitter like for your post! and they get their dopamine hit and think im so awesome. they arent shit for journalism

Now what did I tell you all about exposin' the business? Jungle Jackoff is fucking lucky he wasn't working under Bill Watts because he'd feed Jungle Jackoff to the dogs! What the people, if I can even call AEW fans that, don't understand, is of course what you just said: that everything right before that is all fake bullshit, but OH, it's just THIS time we're going to avoid being phony and REALLY try to injure each other! And then afterwards we'll go right back to being phony as usual! HAWWWW!

Or they get wrestlers saying nice things about them (to get positive reports about themselves) and these hacks will think that makes them good at their jobs.
But that's not my issue. My issue is that nobody holds them accountable and calls them out for their actual incompetence and just focuses on their mumbling or their bad questions at press events or their bias. No one in wrestling ever brings up the complete lack of real reporting.

0 surprise, in fact 40k is still above & beyond after last year. I suspect it's fomo by a bunch of marks and resellers. There's no way people are dumb enough to pay even more for this sham of an event again.
