He started early today
>>15057633Didn't basketball literally JUST fucking end holy fuck
Why does Dave pretend to understand sports. NBA draft had zero hype, you can check the nba general on /sp/ no one is talking about it
AEW fans would rather watch anything but AEW. And that is genuinely the real issue.
>>15057633You'd think Barclays Center was made of toilet paper because the entire draft was full of shit. Everyone wanted to see if Lebron's lousy kid would get drafted and no one picked him, that's the only thing that pulled numbers for it. That's what he's going to use to excuse whatever ratings AEW pulls this week?
>>15057671>Something else is on during dynamite? Better watch it then!It says that even aew fans have aew's flagship show low on the scale of importance. It's not a good argument to make.
>>15057633these are the type of people that call you an e-drone
>>15057633he don't miss he can't miss
It doesn't matter what the company is, any sports draft is literally people watching to see the top 3 picks, then tuning out and seeing what their team did when it's over. Nobody watches drafts.
>>15057707Richard Ramirez lookin ass
>>15057701Agreed. They act like competition only exists for AEW and not WWE/NXT. No, your show just sucks.
>>15057633People that watch the NBA draft aren't watching the AEW clown show in the first place
If you were going back and forth from this literally who NBA draft you don’t really like AEW
It was a Sheldon and Penny team up episode of BBT (the two most popular characters) so it's guaranteed to get 800k
>>15057671Exactly. I don't know why he uses this as a cope, especially because he names a different show each week that AEW fans would apparently rather watch than sit through Dynamite.
>>15058379When some other anon mentioned that it was the S2 opener I knew it was going to skyrocket the ratings. Its the follow up to Penny and Leonards first date angle.
>>15057633he started yesterday
>>15058701No wonder he got laughed out of mma. He doesnt know sports for shit.
>>15058676Dave from the top cope, with subsequent discussions about whether BBT booking will get Dynamite a bump is top comedy because these things are being done in earnest. I love laughing at AEW.
>>15057707fetal alcohol syndrome head ass
>>15057663Men College basketball is completely dead because everyone leaves after there freshmen or sophomore year, no players get hyped because so much are one and done you can't build characters or personalities It's why women college basketball exploded, a lot tuned out of the boring men game and follow women because it's full of uppity nigress and white stacy's with drama. Of course Dave and AEW have no idea what building personality are
>>15058593the funniest part is how he coped for 2 months that ratings were bad because of the NBA and NHL playoffs, and then Dynamite does it's worst rating in history after the NBA finals end and with no NHL on.
Apparently every sports and entertainment fan watches AEW. When nothing else is on, that is.
>>15058758It has reached the point where normalfags are starting to notice that shitty episodes, howard and raj centered, have more of an impact on AEWs ratings than Tinys shitty booking.
My favorite Dave cope was when he tried for a few weeks to say AEW ratings were tanking because the fan base was too affluent and rich to waste time watching TV
>>15057671Adding to this the core issue that wrestling (and other forms of entertainment) face today is that you don't just need to be better than the other five things on TV, you need to make people want to watch live instead of watching a million other things available to them at any given moment.You need to make them want to tune in as it happens because they can't wait to see what Liv, Dom, Roman, the Rock, Drew or Punk (and at one point MJF) get up to next. You basically need to con the viewer into thinking it's important to see that stuff live because they emotionally invested, or just because they need to live tweet what's happening for their 200 twitter followers.The problem with simply putting on bangers is that besides all the other netflix shows and porn and tiktok there's decades of wrestling available to everyone right now. I could tune in to watch Bryan Danielson wrestle some old Mexican on Collision with no story whatsoever, or I could watch him wrestle Nigel McGuinness in 2007 with a lot of story, or I could watch him win the WWE Championship, or I could watch that Kobashi match that's rated highly on cagematch and I haven't seen yet, or I could get into catch wrestling since someone stared uploading old matches on youtube or I could jerk off and look at my twitter feed. Not to mention all the people that have friends and family and always have better things to do. Even for a no life smark there is simply no urgency to watch any of the bangers or promos and not just put them off for later (probably never).
>>15058832Then he followed it up with niggers not being relatable. Lol at the jew going mask off.
>even the aew marks who hang on dave's every word admit that dynamite can't hold their interest for one full episodeHoly grimola.
>>15058820The moment anyone seriously started considering the impact of BBT storylines on dynamite ratings they were dead already, and just didn’t realize it yet.
>>15059991>>15058820>>15058758Is this real? Are Meltzer and his AEW fan cronies coping about their ratings by citing BBT storylines?
>>15060068Not their level yet but anons here discussing it not ironically is already a bad sign. The more normals folks did say that Black Panther isn’t as much of a draw as a lead in as BBT last week. Which means even they are depending on the artificial bump.
Is there SOMETHING that doesn't affect AEW's rating?
>>15060499aewtists don't realize how embarrassing complaining about not having the bbt as lead in sounds
>>15057682Every NBA draft will draw some numbers no matter who is in it. Round 2 is tonight.
>>15058340"The first round averaged 4.93 million (+24%), peaking with 6.09 million from 8-8:15 PM ET — when San Antonio drafted Wembanyama first overall. The traditional ESPN broadcast led the way with 2.72 million (+33%), with ABC at 2.22 million (+14%).The second round, which aired solely on ESPN, averaged 1.19 million (+6%)."https://www.sportsmediawatch.com/2023/06/nba-draft-ratings-record-most-watched-victor-wembanyama-espn-abc/
>>15057633I'm a huge basketball fag and I haven't watched a draft in over 10 years. It's easy enough to just pull up my NBA app and see the picks there. This was a very shitty draft as well.
>>15057633imagine being so worried that aew will have another shit rating that you're reaching out to meltzer early to find out this week's talking points LMAO
>>15058795>Men College basketball is completely dead "UConn’s defeat of Purdue in Monday’s men’s March Madness final averaged 14.82 million US viewers on TBS and TNT, according to NielsenMen’s tournament sees three per cent rise in viewership across 67 games, averaging 9.9 million viewers per game"
>>15060615Yea, that dude is a complete retard. College basketball is actually seeing a resurgence because the NBA is too focused on artificially propping up LeBron and Steph and the other supermax contract dinosaurs who are terrible now. Look at our US Olympics team this year. LeBron, Steph, KD, Kawhi... big oof. I'm not even sure they win bronze this year.
Why don’t AEW fans want to watch AEW?
the rating will be back over 750k due to big dimes Sheldon bringing the house. Dave can fuck off with his mumblemouth nonsense
>>15060776
>>15060601this was LITERALLY WHO: The draft. Dave is a big gay retard>obviouslywhat a schmuck
