He sees it in a pretty logical way. It's not every day you get a billionaire taking a chance on wrestling because there is giant money in TV deals. When that billionaire's son niches the product so much that it only gets $45 million in TV rights (a pittance by TV standards), and only stands to make its money back over three years (with a bit extra), then it's going to be more off-putting to anyone else looking to get in and present the product people have really been hungry for -- something that is actually different and competitive to the WWE.

People outside wrestling aren't going to draw distinctions between good wrestling and bad wrestling. They're going to see what Vince McMahon's wrestling can do, and what "not Vince McMahon's wrestling" can do. It won't matter to them that AEW is a juiced-up PWG.
