Tony has done a cracking job of promoting Jinder Vs Rollins. Now people will tune in to see whether they actually switch the title for the laugh.

Obviously they shouldn't actually put the title on Jinder, but a little "Dusty finish" situation, just briefly, would be hilarious off the back of this.

Has Tony ever actually run a successful, profitable business

Yes. His data analytics company has been key in some American sports, NFL in particular, in scouting and performance. Obviously it wasn’t built up from nothing, his old man funded it. But there’s a reason why Big Shaddy Cool (better, air raid?) keeps his at arms length from his main business ventures.

The stats and performance thing obviously not applied to his AEW hiring policy.

I would imagine he has whole hiring spreadsheets tracking important stats such as how many highly rated matches they've had, how many dogs they've got, and how many moments of questionable behaviour in their lifetime. Score high in one or all categories and you'll be ALL ELITE in no time.

Is that why RJ City still hasn't had his All Elite graphic?

Gets his wealth from his father and is clearly surrounded by people who don’t tell him no.

How is this different from any other major wrestling promoter of the past 40 years? Nepo babies run wrestling and always have.

The difference being Sniff isn’t one of the wrestling nepo baby inner circle so will always be an outsider to them. I suppose it’s also viewed like a Wrestling nepo baby has paid his dues by learning the business from the bottom up or whatever outdated macho bullshit mindset those weirdos have.

I don’t recall Eric Bischoff inheriting wealth when he was running WCW. He applied for the job and got it and cut his teeth in the AWA years before. So sorry, I have to disagree with you there.

I can imagine the feeling he probably gets from it all when the replies are flying in all calling him 'bossman'. 

He still thinks he can win the Rumble?

He ran the TV and creative, Ted Turner owned WCW

Eric didn't own WCW LCJ. He always had someone higher up to answer to. 

[Merzbow]

Eric never owned WCW, he could be and was sacked. Now Ted Turner is arguably a nepo baby, inheriting his father's business.
