I'd have gone to Waffle House but that's just me.
A murderer would certainly blend in better at Waffle House
Yes we know the backstory but when I first read this I thought you were talking about Kevin Owens then I realized you are lacking grammar skills which makes sense given you’re a big aew fan.
Ouch...that's the only way to describe the Dynamite rating. Again I thought it was a good show but it also didn't have Big Bang Theory as a lead in.
502,000 viewers and a .16.
Lowest ratings ever for its normal time slot.

I knew it would be bad because nearly all the wrestling accounts I follow on Twitter were talking about the Kendrick Lamar concert on Amazon. It was easily the least talked about live Dynamite I've ever seen on Twitter because of that. But I wasn't expecting that bad.
"Hey hey, this is Conrad Thompson and you're listening to 83 Weeks with the Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels. Shawn, what's goin' on, man?"
Well Conrad, I will tell you that I did not sleep with that young intern. As a matter of fact, I was up all night long.
I didn’t think Dynamite was bad this week. But it does seem like there’s a fan disconnect somewhere.
My theory is this Elite story is falling flat and driving viewers away in droves.
I’m invested in the title picture. I will watch anything Osprey does. I like the Patriarchy. I like Timeless Toni Storm. Mone is a waste of money and TV time. The Learning Tree is f’n dumb as hell, and this Elite thing is just dork ass wannabe NWO but way less cool or over.

I haven't enjoyed the Young Bucks since they grew those stupid mustaches. And I don't get Don Callis at all at this point
Obviously TK needs to say Joe Hendry's name so he will appear and bring ratings.

Triple H and the gang are slaying it.
It's like a lot of wrestler's were given a clean slate. I loved those MITB qualifier matches. I get tired of seeing the same 6-7-8 names for everything.

Wolfpack Bloodline may destroy Roman his first night back to further this thing.
It doesn't matter if Cody's blood against Styles was fake or it looked like Punk dipped his face into a jelly donut tonight, you don't always need blading and extreme violence to further a story. Dustin Rhodes carved himself stupid against Jack Perry and nobody cared. Punk bounced himself off an overhead door a few times and spread some "blood" on himself and his future opponent carried him out to his hometown fans and casually dropped him like a sack of shit. That will be remembered. Work smart, stupid. This is one reason why Punk seems legit happy to be back.
I could write paragraphs about AEW's issues because I've done it before. We know their problems but they're dug in so it doesn't matter. Nearly 200K did not opt out of watching this week for a concert and I don't believe *only* AEW fans are leaving cable. I'm sure they'll rebound some next week if Big Bang is their lead-in again but the excuses have worn thin. NXT destroyed AEW this week with homegrown talent, AEW castoffs, and TNA wrestlers no one watches. And on the main roster, Breakker has been there since April and there's more talk around him with a better story than anything that's happened with Will Ospreay. Tell me when I'm telling lies.

This concert was the most watched concert in the history of Amazon and aired head to head with AEW.
Congrats?
Now where was all this talk when Raw was pulling record low ratings in the fall?
Oh I see, mysteriously absent from you. How interesting…
Anyone here want to wear a shirt that says HIT LIST right above a black man's head which coincidentally has a target directly over his forehead? Anyone? C'mon, you can wear this on a Saturday and the large photo of a battered woman's face Britt Baker shirt the following day.
You realize someone could have that concert on their tablet and aew on at the same time on tv? This isn’t the 1980s when you can only had one tv and one channel on.
It’s just kicking the can down the road of excuses as to AEW fans justifying low ratings.
Wow, that's how you've known you lost. We've all known your a POS. At least you're not even trying to hide it now. Gfy
Most wrestling shirts are awful, like it makes no sense who would want to wear a good chunk of them. There was an older board that had a thread of some terrible wrestling shirts.Anyone here want to wear a shirt that says HIT LIST right above a black man's head which coincidentally has a target directly over his forehead?

I’ve only owned a few wrestling shirts, and most of them were pretty dumb lol
That’s quite a leap there bud - not sure how you came up with that but the comments show you’re just full of crap.
Jacob Fatu showed more charisma last night in two and a half minutes than the rest of the group he’s with has in weeks or years.
