>>15743432Making one of the top salaries in professional wrestling history btw. Worked one match for the entire month of August. Cody Rhodes worked 10.
This is why the seats stay empty at AEW shows, they don't work for the fans - they work for Khan and Meltzer. If AEW wasn't full of marks, they could easily do 2-3 house shows per week in high school-sized gyms for 1500+ fans, same way New Japan does it. But they've been conditioned to believe they're BETTER than New Japan, that wrestling in matches that won't be recorded/broadcast is beneath them. Look at the results.
It becomes harder each day to feel bad for AEW employees
