I heard it was tpww's #1 cyberbully, Anybody Thrilla!

Curtis I could see some of that talent getting signed by AEW. Lots of potential.

That wasnt my post, I was just making fun of the pictures in the backyard thread.
I guess thats not allowed here.

wtf slik why did you merge the backyard posts into this thread

come on... big mess now...

can't undo it unless i go through every single post and manually move each one back...

y would you do that.......

I dont care about the backyard posts, just got upset my posts got moved here to make it look like I posted those pictures randomly instead of having it "in context" with the backyard thread and wasted half an hour trying to entertain people with captions.

That's what i get for trying to "entertain" people. Fuck everyone

#1 rule of life, bullies and assholes ALWAYS win.

nvm dont waste your time, someone just wanted to do something nasty to me because they could tell I spent time and effort to try to be "funny" and they wanted to put me down and ruin my day, like my life isn't bad enough already.

I really don't get it. If you are succesfull in life, why do you have the urge to crap on people whose lives suck already and try to put everyone else down who isnt like u.

You should watch ALL ELITE WRESTLING on TNT this fall

You will feel better about your life

Very funny...I spent so much time and effort making captions and its all gone now because I deleted the posts since the mods were trying to make me look like a spammer or something.

You guys win, I'm not succesful in life and not even allowed to try to entertain people online because I'm not "part of the group". Its all the same crap that happened from junior high and up. That's why I barely watch any movies because "the good guy wins" is bs, only the worst assholes ever win. If your not like everybody else, they'll do everything in their effort to destroy you even over tiny little things like making a joke.

Such a Drama Queen!

Chris Jericho: Possessed by the spirit of Brother Love?

Yeah, I misread the Showbuzz thing which had them in the orange (which I assume means between average and low). I assumed it was for that time slot, but I think it must just be for that position on the charts. Like, the show in #25 usually does more, or something.

Because I used a site that measures these things and read the chart? My bad. This one received a fair bit more promotion than the other one. I didn’t even realize it was on, and was optimistic about them at the time. That one getting 190k on WGN was whatever, but this one I know I was aware of. This one I knew about and I’ve largely zoned out of their stuff.

The Weather Channel got 900k in the same slot. And I hear all this stuff about TNT averaging 1.2 million or something in prime time. I had no clue the drop-off would be that immense for 10pm, so when I saw the orange I just assumed.

I’m predicting 82k domestic buys for All Out.

The Weather Channel during a hurricane is stiff competition.

I’m sure this has been talked about before but did they really have a 6 team mini-tournament in order to decide who gets a first round bye in another tournament?

So the team who won the first tournament had to wrestle two matches for the right to wrestle one less match.

It was pretty convoluted.

If I had to guess AEW probably didn't have enough teams available at the time to do an 8 team tournament and needed a quick storyline excuse for the bye.

Young Bucks and Lucha Bros would have given them 8 but Lucha Bros are not officially signed and also have AAA stuff to take care of. LAX gives them 8 now but at the time it wasn't guaranteed they'd sign with AEW.

Fuck yr mega thread.

1. Didn’t realize there was a hurricane. 2. Is it? Is everyone watching the weather during a storm? I don’t think that happens when we get disasters over here. And they affect specific regions.

Well, my prediction of 82k was a bit ambitious. Looks to have gotten 28k on PPV. They got about half their buys on B/R Live last time. 56k is not a good sign. Last time it went up 11%, but 62k domestic barely beats TNA’s best efforts and is below what ECW used to do, on average.

TNT should help, but there is less interest for this show than the last one. They can’t rest on them being not WWE forever.

Do you know how big America is? 900k isn't everyone.

Final domestic tally might still end up being close to what DoN generated since the Observer reported that B/R Live numbers were higher than at DoN and the show itself is estimated at having done around 100k overall.

All depends on how much those B/R gains offset traditional PPV losses. Same happened internationally with ITV buys being up but FITE buys being down for this event.

Also worth noting the potential of people splitting the cost on the show since BR Live allows streaming on two devices

That’s what screech and I have been doing for the $50 shows and I’d assume others are doing the dame

This baffles me. Major disasters get coverage everywhere and this particular storm is the second strongest hurricane on record and just sat on top of a country for 2-3 days and completely destroyed the northern half of it (The Bahamas). You may be the only person online who didn't know there was a hurricane.

And yeah a lot of people will be watching the weather channel. When you have storms like that that are threatening areas with tens of millions of people you tend to want to know if you need to run or not. We've gotten an evac order 3 out of the last 4 years, including for this storm. Pretty much the entire coast from Miami through North Carolina was ordered to evac. I was glued to the weather channel at that point to decide if I was going to try and fight the traffic or if maybe I would risk staying put. Stayed put this time, glad I did. Stayed just outside of the bad part of the storm.

We have our own natural disasters to worry about here. Still don’t know anyone who watches The Weather Channel. Do yanks really get their evac information from it? Jesus Christ, your country really is a mess.

To get 72k domestic buys there would need to be 44k B/R Live buys. That would be over a 20% increase.

100% this. AEW is quickly losing its shine.

I do not plan on spending $50 on any more PPVs from AEW unless they REALLY take off. When I can watch it for free weekly, the special attraction feel will be gone.

Plus, let's be honest, valuewise, WWE is $10, that is a far better deal.

I was on board with them (hell, I started this thread), but they’ve quickly lost me. I still want them to do well. Wrestling needs something else. I just don’t think it needs Anything Else Wrestling. It’s got too much PWG and feels nostalgic for really weird periods of time. Like early WCW and 99/00 WCW in how it breaks its own reality.

I’ve been worried it’s my cynicism getting in the way, but I watched some of the UK Takeover and loved it. I’m still a wrestling fan somewhere. I just hope this doesn’t ruin anyone else’s chances of getting a huge TV deal if people see this and think “this is a bit silly.”

That Walter/Tyler Bate match was brutality at its finest.

I’ve liked elements of what they’ve done as individuals (moreso WALTER than Bate), but I loved them together. WALTER chopping people always has a place in wrestling.

Between this and Cody/Jericho I'm more sold on Full Gear than I was All Out.

They’re putting on the matches they pulled from fans previously, which is nice. Still have no clue why they scrapped PAC/Page from DON.

Thought it was cause Pac threw a fit

He couldn’t lose, but so what? Apparently the plan was to put him over, anyway. He was supposed to lose to Omega, who is losing and lost to PAC anyway. Protecting Page seems like a weird prerogative too. Just do the match and then not use PAC until he drops the Dragon Gate Title.

It was bad booking. And no one wanted to call it such up front that early. But it was bad booking.

There were also supposedly visa issues going on around the same time causing the PAC situation to become even more of a mess.

Same issues also affected the OWE guys since AEW wanted either more of them to show up or have different tag partners for Cima.

Just getting around to watching All Out. First thing I noticed: Excalibur is so nervous when the camera is on him.

That makes it look like Nyla Rose is teaming with Cody to take on Jeircho/Ambrose

Or just fighting Moxley one on one (Wrote Ambrose in previous post because temporarily forgot his name for some reason)
