Slapnut Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Absolutely boiling hot take that I don’t think anybody has mentioned yet, but does anyone else think it’ll be interesting to see if AEW are still selling out arenas when the hype dies down?? Just thought I’d bring it up because I don’t think anybody has considered that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK Kat Von D Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Can’t see how the hype could die down once they have a television deal. The fact they have sold out their first few TV tapings before they’ve even started doing tapings is impressive enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they going to try a show outside of the big cities Why would they bother? That's where all the people and money is. Seems quite bloody pointless. And if they aren't doing a full WWE house show schedule they can probably comfortably stick to the major markets and cities throughout the year without running out of places to promote.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted August 19, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2019 Tony Schiavone's signed with AEW. Pleased with that. But that's a lot of announcers they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted August 19, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2019 Schiavone and that Excalibur bloke calling the matches with JR doing the Mike Tenay facts and background stuff might work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Yeah I'd happily take a reduced commentary role for JR. He's an asset but they need to use him in the right way these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King of Old School Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Is he going to be an on air announcer though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPDTT Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 How many times will we hear "This is the greatest night in the history of our sport" on TNT night 1? So stoked with the Tony Schiavone announcement - he is the announcer I'm most nostalgic about from the Monday night wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrodyGraham Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Newz sites are reporting that Schiavone will be the third man in the booth with JR and Excalibur. That'll do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
