In more AEW is insecure as fuck news (seems like the 5th story this week): AEW is now targeting AEWBotches on Twitter for using clips. AEW flat-out said they wouldn’t do this. But it turns out they will...if the intent isn’t to frame them as awesome isn’t there.
* Dustin flipping out after asking fan opinion.
* TK just needing to bite on Triple H comments.
* Omega, Jericho and Hardy getting upset that JR dared insinuate that Randy Orton was, in his opinion, the best wrestler in the world.
* AEW Twitter taking shots at WWE.
* AEW targeting people who use gifs if they don’t blow the company.
Cracking under pressure with the truth being exposed. I cannot wait to see what happens if they don’t get the numbers they were hoping for with their move back to Wednesday, or if Rampage gets dropped or something.
Imagine if this company gets out-right canceled? Imagine what happens when the Big Bang Theory marathon proves to be more financially viable than AEW on TBS and they have to explain to the “wrestling media” how they have been kicked out on their asses. How is Dave going to spin that one?
Does Brett Weitz become the new Jamie Kellner? The executive that just “hated wrestling” so much and wouldn’t give it a chance? Does the NHL become the enemy, where if they just stayed put and didn’t make it *just impossible* for AEW to keep an audience, they would have been flourishing in business? Is wrestling just too hard/not what audiences want? Oh shit, is it the audience’s fault for rejecting them and being prisoners on Vince McMahon programming and not getting with them?
How about it’s a bunch of inexperienced minds with a surface-level understanding that runs incongruously against the reality of larger fan demand and what actually works in professional wrestling. Maybe when people see leg slaps on chops, sloppy stunts that don’t make sense, poorly executed fight scenes, they remember this shit isn’t what they once liked? Maybe when they hear melodramatic promos filled with awful comedy and childish pettiness, they tune the fuck out? Maybe when you act like little bitches, people begin to see you like little bitches?
Fuck. This. Company.
