>>5999142aew took their market share. there is none left unless they retake it from aew, which is impossible since their fans are so emotionally invested in aew succeeding now and "beating" wwe.
>>5999173>AEW did take at least some advantage of the New Japan word of mouth by snatching Kenny, but how is that such a big failure of New Japan's part?aew is literally a njpw spinoff. new japan lowballed kenny instead of paying him what he was worth, so he fucked off and started his own company with the yb backed by a rich investor and all the overseas new japan fans switched to the new promotion. it was a huge failure by njpw and impossible to recover from in terms of overseas market share.
>The expansion will continue happening as long as the office demands itthey created nj usa and run one "big" show a month or two in front of 1-2k people. thats the limit of their success, there is no way to grow bigger now that aew exists as the big alternative to wwe.
>we have no idea if they are actually winning or losing money on this, because they clearly aren't investing a lot in it either.last year they lost a lot starting up nj usa, it was in their investor report. they invested a lot for their standards on it too. it might be profitable now, but its hardly anything significant with the attendance they're getting
