Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted January 9, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted January 9, 2019 TNA's got more chance of getting back on TV with this promotion doing well, than if it doesnt. MLW as well. Hopefully this leads to more wrestling promotions getting their foot in the door, if AEW gets on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more pessimistic personally, they're all going to be raiding the same pool and there's only going to be one real winner there. With NXT already snapping up so many wrestlers, and treading on the toes of these companies in all honesty, I can't see there being enough oxygen in the room.

BigJackTaylor Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 The one thing I don't understand is why wrestling has this set plan of what is needed to be a success or indeed just be a wrestling promotion . Why does a successful wrestling have to have a weekly episodic tv show? Yeah it worked for wwe but times have changed. There are other ways to build and grow a promotion without just doing the same old same old. Why the stupid names for shows. 'Double or nothing?' It's a tad corny. Its the same overdone concept that will only end when a really progressive group come along and do something truly different. From what I've seen so far AEW will be another wwe lite company that does nothing really different in front of the camera. Shame really as they clearly have a decent backer behind them.

Because television companies pay you a fee to air your show, which you use to get the characters over to a national audience and then you develop more revenue streams and can then sell it internationally. How else could you be successful in the long term if you dont have a television outlet to get these characters over? Times have hardly changed when WWE has signed the biggest TV deal in their history. TV is more important that ever.

Double Or Nothing as they’re doing the show at the MGM in Vegas? They haven’t even done a show yet, so you’ve seen nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 9, 2019 Moderators Share Posted January 9, 2019 (edited) All In? Double or Nothing? Well with Jericho on board, I'm out! OHO Edited January 9, 2019 by PowerButchi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 "All In" and "Double Or Nothing" are both gambling terms, so there is a consistency with them.  Although I think it'll end up not being "Triple Crown", but more "£500, on the nose, on Sad Ken" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be all in on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
