Mox calling it Collision and not Grand Slam was probably the nail in the coffin for this. They'll never get the goodwill back from the Aussies. Which I guess isn't that big a deal but come on, there's no way Grand Slam would be a 2 hr Collision if they'd sold 40k tickets in the Suncorp

Grand Scam (not a PPV) is just another success (failure) to add to Tony Bakan's resume (KWABOTY contendership)

Yeah, then they had to downgrade to a smaller arena. Then they Tony backtracked and said he never claimed it was going to be a PPV (even though he said at an earlier press conference they were working on getting the show on PPV).

Cancelling the show and making up some excuse would be less embarrassing than putting on this glorified TV taping.

Maybe the Auslards should've bought tickets if they didn't want their show downgraded. Only themselves to blame.

You're going to be seething and crying when the show goes off great and the audience are all super pumped and happy all night.
Because that's what really gets under your skin, the sight of people leaving the house to go have fun with their friends. That what this is really about.
And then when the show isn't hijacked by pissed off fans like you want, you will come on here and post thread after thread of seethe about it and shitting on them and calling them obedient little cucks who got ripped off etc.
Your life is just 1 massive L

I am legit not an aewtist, but most are wrong here. Both Meltzer AND Keller reported that this wouldn't be a PPV back in like November or December. This is easily verified.

I'm really not trying to defend AEW here. This whole ordeal is a fucking disaster on all levels. If it was planned to be just a Collision, why the fuck book a stadium and call it Grand Slam? You're telling me you booked an overseas stadium show on the same day as the NBA All-Star game and your plan was to show it on TNT? Very clearly another instance of them just doing shit with zero research. I love they booked this one months in advance with no clue how it was going to air, but they don't announce their actual TV tapings until like 3 weeks out and then wonder why they can't fill a civic center.

Did anyone else notice that in the same statement, Tony said it was always supposed to be for TV and like two sentences later said that TNT recently came to him with the idea of airing it after the NBA?

Are the cocaine jokes real? What's the basis for it? Because I can 100% believe that Tony is geeked out of his mind doing this. Only way it makes any sense. I do imagine that doing massive rails of what I assume is really good shit and then blowing through hundreds of millions to play booker is fun as hell.
