While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer talked about AEW Grand Slam selling over 2,000 tickets within just a few days. He suggested that AEW might have given away a lot of complimentary tickets, expressing some skepticism about how many of the recent sales were actually paid for. He noted that while there were over 8,000 people in attendance, the sudden surge in ticket sales raised questions about the actual paid attendance.>“I don’t know how much paid was. When you get three thousand in the last couple of days, you know what I mean? That’s a lot. It was over eight thousand in the building though.”
>>15913294If Dave "doesn't know" then he should keep his fucking rat mouth shut and not recklessly speculate like this. It's bad faith criticism and it poisons the well. Mercedes Mone and TOny Khan did a ton of local media and moved a lot of tickets. Mone was on WFAN sports radio (#1 sports talk radio in the US) and The Breakfast Club with Charlemagne Tha God, which is the #1 hip-hop radio show in the US. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arcUQwUzjq0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w01gRNr6kcU
>>15913312oh wow anon you didn't tell me that Sasha went on the radio. that changes everything - did she sell a few thousand tickets to people in 1996?
>>15913316>In 2021, WFAN in New York was one of the highest earning radio stations, earning $41 million. WFAN is a sports radio station that broadcasts 24/7, providing news and commentary on live games. It's one of the biggest sports stations in the world, with many sports fans tuning in who can't watch the game on TVMore than WWE loser
>>15913323yes I'm sure that the radio is played in many nursing homes across New York but what's your point?
>>15913312It’s a shame that Mike Francesa isn’t there anymore. Mercedes and the Pope… Chills
>>15913328He would lose his patience with that mush mouthed retard and bash her fucking skull in with a diet coke.
dear of dire...
>>15913294damn even meltzer is getting tired of tony's lies and incompetenceaewsis... it's getting cold..
>b-b-but radio interviews!!!
>>15913294First the Australia show being a flop and now this. Already a terrible start for PED0wheels this morning... Well he lives in Ireland so I guess terrible afternoon.
>>15913294Hahahahahahahahahahahah pissant
>e-drones don't listen to sports talk radiowell i guess we can officially cross "NFL" off the list of things that has cross over appeal with e-tards. what's Raws excuse for the dogshit ratings now?
>>15913814>edronesThis thread is about Tony comping 1000’s of tickets. The source is AEW super fan, Dave Meltzer.
>>15913879>1000SER>Meltzer is right when he reinforces muh narrative
>>15913294The same thing happened at all out but he credited it to a massive surge in late interest for the show. I wonder what changed. Tony has always papered the shit out of his bigger shows to try and pop a wrestletix number. Dave just reporting the wrestletix number here as a straight up fact shows why.
Not a good look! Even the 1 aew fan left can’t even come up with a good defense for this poor showing
>>15913294Hows your sex life?
>>15914262ice cold I'm afraid, like slopdown after it got cancelled
>>15913913>meltzer is wrong when he doesn’t reinforce my narrative
>>15914276Funny way of spelling hampage
>>15914281That is what you unironically believe.
how did he know?
Dave knows. He just doesn't want to say because it's embarrassing.
>>15914294Nice projection.
>>15914315If only he. had any journalistic integrity.
>>15914328You said it though
>>15914306Because it literally always happens.
>>15913312Very well said.
>>15914306because it happens every week
