Dave tried to get that flying again a few months ago. He was praising Tony growing AEW from $0 in revenue to whatever he was making up it’s getting now.
Tony spends more and more as time goes on. I don’t think Ken Jeong worked the PPV for free. But AEW’s profitability is trivial if Beatnik — or whatever the trust fund company he and his sister were gifted is called — pays AEW and eats all the unwanted costs.
It’s going to cost so much money to get his wrestlers to re-sign with AEW when their deals are up. If you were a woman working for that company, why would you accept anything less than Mercedes Mone money when she doesn’t move the needle and gets paid what she does?
Tony’s got no talent. His positions are bought positions. Being a promoter or a booker requires knowledge and talent. Tony’s knowledge scope is limited to secondary and tertiary source texts outside his immediate AEW experience. Plus he just has no actual talent. And that’s fine for a human being. It just doesn’t fly for a promoter who wants to be the center of everything.
People used to scoff when he was compared to Dixie Carter lol.
