And there’s that smokescreen argument I don’t like. Not everything shrivels and dies on the vine. Let’s stop excusing it.
I don't know what the argument even is. They literally, materially exceeded the original expectations for how Dynamite would before. Yes, they are at the mercy of their biggest customer, what alternative would you suggest? That you like a load of WWE wrestlers? Good, they're making more money than ever! Cheer up, dickhead.

You don't like modern wrestling but it's making more money now, I'm sorry to tell you this. It's a media product, blame Vince for starting Raw and making wrestling the never ending live show. You won't name numbers, you have no advice to offer these companies, WWE is making insane amounts of money. I pause before saying that AEW is making money because I don't know and I'm sure I'll get told how it's a joke and losing hand over fist.

I thought that's what we were all supposed to care about, the money and the miles, right? That's what all the legit, old school legends said, right? Suddenly the money's not good enough?
