This is one of the chief reasons why I am genuinely surprised WBD actually gave them a new deal. Even a deal with equity, performance markers, that takes all the advertising and PPV revenue — a completely lateral, or even more one-sided deal than before — still can’t expect to see any sort of growth. It should actually factor in that WWE can counter-program through streaming via either Netflix or Peacock and absolutely decimate AEW’s viewership.

That Dynamite number was atrocious. And it can and will get that low again. The trend of the show losing viewers as it continues suggests that people get annoyed watching it. They are eventually not going to come back.

The deal has to be absolutely no pressure at all. They’re just taking a bath on AEW because they want to play around with PPV and running live stuff on MAX, etc. Or they’re absolute fucking morons.

Even if they don’t have to pay them the full speculated amount (reports say things like “up to”) — the real estate on basic cable should be way more valuable than to be tanking your nights like that.
