Shad is cutting Tonys allowance. There's no other reason why AEW would be doing all these bingo hall residencies.

He sorta has too because they can’t draw shit at the NBA arenas . I think he’s better off just fucking off to Europe and staying there . At least then he draws.

Even though we all saw it in real time over the years, we're already at the point where remaining AEW cucks are asking "What happened?/How could this happen?/When did this happen?" kek. Every. Single. Time. when people warn about fanboyism, this happens. Happened with progressives. Happening with MAGA. Good GOD people are retarded.

wait what? AEW working Hammerstein? thats an indie venue. the mexican restaurant thing was just a meme because it was actually a concert hall that kind of looked like a mexican restaurant...but this is legit grim. fucking gcw runs the hammerstein ballroom, it's not very big.

It's wild how AEW can't draw anyone for TV but draws well for PPV. Never seen anything like it in wrestling before. This company had almost 30 thousand people in a stadium a few months ago and now they're doing television in an old warehouse.

Right, but there are only so many days they can put on events per year and it takes time to do turn overs for different events and it just might make more sense to host other events instead at this point rather than AEW.

One big thing regarding the Hammerstein Ballroom is that it's not really just a normal venue. That venue is about as iconic as Madison Square Garden honestly and it's not just the wrestling business that the Hammerstein Ballroom is famous for. It's a big stop for concerts as well.

First check your facts/numbers, he didn't even sell the place out. Second overseas crowds are ravenous for American pop culture (prowrestling). The entire world worships USA because we make the entertainment for the entire planet.

For example, in Japan you probably think Sunshine Boy (Omega) is a big hit? Tom Holland (Spidey) steps foot in Japan, they shut the whole country down.

I think AEW should consider not being so US centric. Run some shows across Europe. Run some shows across Latin America. Run some shows across Asia. Having some hot international crowds for a few episodes would be a better look.

I looked through their venues for tv and 90% of them are 4-6k capacity range. It's just this with 1.5k and and Bayou Music center (1,348) that are sub 3k. the next lowest is Boeing Center, SA, Tx with 3.2k.

They're too different buildings. The ECW Arena is the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia. The Hammerstein Ballroom is a theatre in the Manhattan Center (same building where the Grand Ballroom that the first few Raws were taped at) in New York City.

Okay so they're at the OG ECW Arena which was tiny and aired on public access. Legendary? More like infamous. Watch any ECW shoot. When asked what they miss most?
