Was this AEW's Fingerpoke of Doom moment?
>>
>>16594112
No because aew was dying beforehand.
>>
Nope that was the explosion match. This was their version of "Goldberg didn't follow the script".

Yeah that's totally WCW 2000 going out of business
You people are so fucking retarded

Yes.

Airing the footage is when AEW became completely fucked beyond the point of no return. There was no coming back from it. AEW made mistakes before but the footage was the mistake that sunk the company.

>Fingerpoke of Doom leads to WCW being taken off TV forever

It's literally the same thing.

>tranny seething because AEW is dead and Punk got the last laugh
>>
>>16594133
fingerpoke of doom wasn't in 2000 dumbfuck
>>
>>16594142
Unforgivable. Our only shot at an American Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch on national TV, and they blew it with some sparklers. Even with the endless capital they have at their disposal, they still managed to ruin it. It also made Eddie look like the biggest idiot there.
>>
>>16594112
Tony says releasing the footage is what got AEW's recent TV deal re-upped. Not even joking. There's been threads all wk.
>>
>>16594112
It's very funny they did this at all but airing it and then doing takedowns on everyone that shared it ensuring you wouldn't even get any kind of buzz off it is just peak comedy.
>>
>>16594120
WCW didn't die until sometime after the fingerpoke
>>
>>16594192
Tony airing the footage then immediately realizing it was a horrible mistake and trying to have it scrubbed from the internet will never stop being funny
>>
>>16594158
No shit but people, clearly like yourself, use it to denote the downfall of WCW which was their entire 2000 year

I think it's more nuanced than that. When Tony announced he was releasing the footage, he thought it was the best idea ever. But then the immediate response, even from Meltzer was,
>"Don't be a fucking idiot, Tony!"
Knowing Tony as we do, once he makes plans, he doesn't deviate. He doesn't know how. Before airing the footage, he already spoke to the Jacksonville lawyers and was ready for a massive takedown endeavor.


>tldr- Tony realized releasing the footage was a horrible idea but was so afraid of looking "wrong" that he did it anyway
>>
>>16594238
nice head canon just admit you were wrong
>>
>>16594112
Nope
>However, according to Dave Meltzer, Khan believes airing the All In footage played a key role in getting the $150 million WBD deal over the line.
>>
>>16594112
they never got 800k again after this
>>
>>16594201
It's a root cause, dumbshit.

>>16594153
they got paid 185 milly per after this, ya fat retard. beggin ya to get a clue

No. The Fingerpoke of Doom was the All Out 2022 media scrum.
>>
>>16594353
For Punk's sanity, yes
>>
>>16594112
No, their fingerprint of doom was cody leaving
>>
>>16594133
It's 185 over 3 years which is horrendous
>>
>>16594443
So who is AEW's "Goldberg"?
>>
>>16594451
Adam page, the hottest angle in the company to a sideshow. Also the fingerpoke was bad because it's also the night Foley won his first title and they announced it on Nitro. WCW was hobbled by those two decisions but nothing fucked the company more than putting the strap, several times, on Jeff Jarrett. He was a comedy midcarder, viewed as a geek by wwf and wcw fans. Goldberg had the belt once, Jarrett 3 times.
>>
>>16594489
>Double J
I've never understood that either. He was always a Ric Flair knock off. Like Ultimate Warrior -> The Renegade. And yes, I stopped watching WCW around the time he was pushed although I missed his feud with Beetlejuice which sounds pretty based.

This fucking dude wormed his way into TNA too and even stole Kurt Angle's family irl. Now Kurt's daughter is a full blown prostitute and although I haven't fucked her yet, I have a lot of dirty panties.

No it isn't dipshit. It's $185m PER year
>>
>>16594673
>>16594133
every time i see you guys talking about this is a different number
>>
>>16594112
Fingerpoke of Doom was watched by over 5 million people live. AEW could never lol
>>
>>16594682
Except wrong again. The people you're seeing are your other edrones lying about the number to downplay the fact that AEW is getting $185m per year with their new WBD deal
>>
>>16594682
Thats because retards just keep increasing it and nobody can say otherwise. There has been no financial details of that deal released anywhere.

When Raw's Netflix deal was announced, that details were immediately included in press releases by both WWE and Netflix.

All GAYEW has said was "we got a increase!" while WBD has said nothing whatsoever about the cost. It is all AEWTIST headcannon and Tiny/Meltzer propaganda.
>>
>>16594142
This is unironically AEW's most iconic moment.
>>
>>16594536
I honestly thought that was a Taylor swift picrel and with the history between Swift and Jarrett this being angles daughter is extra bizarre. But yeah I loved Monday nights flipping between raw and Nitro, Arquette and Jarrett made me stop flipping and just watch Raw. Fuck that, Jarrett was the reason. Fuck OSW review for trying to rehab his shit stained career

It's 185 over 3 years with incentives. Now those incentives require viewing audiences over 800k so let's just say it's 185 over 3 years. I'd love to see your cope sources, I have mine but I'll wait u til you post yours hogwheels

This is actually far worse because its not some kayfabe wrestling angle it was something real that should not have been shown on the actual show itself. It shows how much of a faggot Tony really is.

Kek. I wish I could see your face when WBD cancels AEW next year.

>>16594112
Easily.
>>16594116
The exploding ring was a portent of what poor management would bring, but it took place during the lockdown era, so there was some benefit of the doubt given.

>>16595858
And it was done in direct reaction to a Punk shoot interview lmao

If it showed punk getting his ass kicked by Perry and that punk lied it would be one thing. The fact that it confirmed everything punk said and made perry look like a faggot was probably a better reason it shouldn't have aired. Also it made Chris Hero look like he was going through menopause between the weight gain and emotional display. Poor Chris Hero.

Finger poke of doom did not kill WCW fag stop with the Vince pushed revisionist history. In fact they actually did some of their best ratings of that year because of the angle. Meanwhile AEW has been a complete embarrassment for years now. It can't even beat WWE's developmental brand.
>>
>>16596397
>it confirmed everything punk said
It didn't. Punk said Perry got in his face and he had no choice but to defend himself. In reality, he immediately got up in Perry's face.
Punk said he never punched anyone. He was flailing like a tard.
Punk said he put him in a choke.He grabbed his hair and never had him in a headlock.
You're just a deranged Punkcel faggot

Tony should have went all in and blown Moxley and his friend to smithereens because controversy creates cash

Curious, that.

Everyone constantly bringing up the WBD deal like it isn't one of the very many desperate attempts by Zaslav to salvage the sinking ship that is Warner Bros as a whole. They've been bleeding money for years and if they don't stay afloat, they'll risk getting bought out by someone like Disney.

I know your tranny fed promotes delusion as reality but it's really funny that you're in so deep your brain can't help but make up schizo cope to keep you one more day away from the inevitable mental break and suicide.

Deranged cope

There's no possible universe in which what Tony is saying here is even remotely true.
