AEW is for Everyone (even Baldies) #aew
I often go back to what the creators of South Park said when the viewership went down a bit in the early 2000s. The mainstream buzz had worn off but the core audience was going nowhere. And it didn't. But that can't work for AEW? Hmmmm #aew
Once again the discourse on attracting the casual fan to AEW eh? Are we not allowed to have wrestling content catered to us, who'll happily support the company through the ups and downs? No no, go after the fan that'll stop watching when they see something shiny across the room.

Sure, they might offend a few of the 'Fed Pilled' with their cocky stride and flaming tables. Oh, they'll never be the darling of the so-called 'Old timey Podcasters' who cluck their tongues, clutch their pearls, and talk about, 'What's to be done with this AEW?'
But Blood and Guts ruled!

Triple K - "we don’t write the shows based on ‘That’ll be a great match.’"
First of all, no shit 😂
As an AEW fan I'm all about matches 1st, story 2nd. Ie the mere possibility of Okada Vs Takeshida gets me hyper. The fact it's got a story and build is a bonus.

With the discourse about AEW being too violent (again) it begs the question, is it not weird that grown men & women prefer their wrestling (and presumably other forms of entertainment) aimed at children?

How dare AEW not babysit someone's kids at 1am. If pro wrestling doesn't bring up the children of lazy, irresponsible parents then what is it good for?
Oh right, entertaining and bringing joy. Forgot about that.

Maybe we've got this A.I thing all wrong. What if Wrestlebot tells Triple K that hitting 10+ "Finishers" in a match is fucking stupid? Could be a new golden age 😅
I'll just stick to AEW, though.

Might have to revisit this sober but in ring wise, this ppv is a crazy high standard isn't it? Almost wish Jericho had a match so I could finally go for a pee #aew

So much this. If you watch what's going on in Chicago and you immediately jump to "but what about...?". You've got nothing of value to say.
This is one of those things where there isn't room for reasonable disagreement, no gray area.
You're either a good person, or you support ICE. Full stop.

Since the main event in the Fed is about my age or older I figure there's still time.
I'll debut as a "fun loving" face, which comes with a lower mid-card ceiling.
Then I'll turn heel saying this is the "real me".
6 months later, released.
Can totally see why this is the dream for many. #aew

Feel we've gotten the short stick with media coverage of pro wrestling. I know Max numbers are hard to come by but I'm seeing more and more articles or comments that assume they aren't a factor. But why do research when you can just copy and paste an HBK pic and go home early, eh? #aew

The What chants at Toni were annoying as hell but it's the 'You can't Wrestle' directed at Kyle Fletcher that's really thrown me. At first I thought they were chanting that because OC refused to lock up but maybe I'm giving them too much credit and the crowd was just absolute ass. #aew

Gotta say, seeing the anti-ICE sentiment and reaction for those ads last night makes me proud to be an AEW fan.
