AEWxirs... our response?
>>20390797i'm excited to see how things pan out, i don't look at twitter so i'm just going to see how things go.
>>20390797Has an actual Journo commented on this yet or are we just gaslighting?
They can just go on youtube like nxt
>>20390797Youtube will be their permanent home.
>>20390797I thought for a while they were courting Amazon Prime 2bh given all the shilling Khan did to get the PPVs on it.
>>20390797Wait, Piccolo was right?
>>20390807Literally the guy who's cited as the source is a journalist kekDo you call for the same journalistic credentials to be required whenever Dave or sycophant SRS report on something? Wrestling journalists never actually break any big stories. Nowhere to be found on the WWE and Netflix deal. Nowhere to be found over Vince and Janel
>>20390825'fraid Picc don't miss
>>20390800This. I don't hate AEW. I wanna see how Tony handles this lol. He was way too complacent during 2022-2024, and the disastrous ratings from that might be coming back to fuck him. We'll see.
>>20390797>literal youtube promotionLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
source: literally who
>>20390849and somehow they are the second biggest wrestling promotion
>>20390825for all his schizo postings he is still a guy with actual connections in the media biz
>>20390855that's jaxton the bussy slayer player
>>20390800>>20390844In the same boat. The industry is obviously better with more options and another viable promotion for wrestlers to go to. Even if AEW is the drizzling shits. I don't hope the company dies but it's going to be interesting/humorous to see how this goes
>>20390855An actual journalist and not just some ball-sucking mark who pretends to be one for free press tickets wanting to feel like they're part of the business
>>20390896ok then link this actual journalist and his article not some fag who pays for a free website
>>20390807>>20390855>Guy who's reported news that was good for AEW in the past now is breaking news about them that isn't good. But only this time he has no credibility and no one's heard of himAEWtists will turn on you faster than anything. A tale as old as time. Or at least 2019
>>20390904someone is really mad lol
>>20390913what is "mad" about asking u to link the article or what the guy said instead of a guy who just steals shit (or "aggregates") for his 12 dollars a month?
>>20390971The guy is literally tagged in the twitter post in the OP
>12-16 monthsso the length of time already on their deal. edrones are so fucking gullible. No wonder they're 90% maga retards/white trash subhumans and indians>>2039091212-16 months is not August, you balding mentalist
AEW on Twitch.tv by Christmas
>>20390989there was nothing on his feed cause he deleted it
>>20390891the industry will be fine without aew. it frees up a lot of the talent to go somewhere they will be used. so tna, mlw, njpw, nwa, and lucha underground can reclaim their secondary or third tier positions. probably another company will come out too. the "sickos" can go back to watching wwe like they used to, or fucking off into some other tranny hobby.
>>20390991Tony knew since August WBD wasnt going to renew or take the 4th year option. 2027 is Dynamite's last year on the air. Hope this clears everything up
>>20390797>gets cancelled by tnt and fades into obscurity in youre pathmaybe all those eric bischoff jokes will come back to haunt him
>>20390855>doesn't know about fadeaway mediahe isnt named raj or sanjit so it makes sense that an aewtroon wouldn't know who this is
>troon>troon>troonplease leave the internet for a few days
>>20390797i love laffin' at AEW so much it's unreal haha!
>Both AEW and Warner Bros. Discovery have refuted multiple industry sources' claims that Warner Bros. Discovery informed Tony Khan and AEW in the summer of 2025 that the plan was for WBD to be sold and others would be making decisions on further programming.i finally found the article. what are these sources outside of the guy who lost his entire career cause he was too busy trolling on twitter? why is he publishing an article on twitter and not a trade magazine or websites?
>>20390991>>20390904
>>20390797Literally what other deal could they get that would entice an audience. TNT/TBS/HBO was the only real big network they could've had and they squandered itThey probably can't do NetflixDisney's subsidiaries are out of the question since WWE locked them down for PPVsApple TV is the shits (only thing people watch on there is the fuckin' monsterverse show)While youtube would be more convenient for us I doubt they'd make the same or more money from itMaybe amazon is their best bet?Only way Tony would MAYBE be able to change WBD's opinion is with the inevitable All In 2027 on mania weekend. If that is able to draw a consistent audience then maybe it could steer WBD's heads? idfk how tv deals workTony will have to change the TV belts names though how sad I actually liked the TNT and TBS belt designs
>>20391075>trade magazine lmfao this is what the discord comes up with. i'm dead
>>20391019>the industry will be fine without aew. it frees up a lot of the talent to go somewhere they will be used. so tna, mlw, njpw, nwa, and lucha undergroundthis. aew has been a net negative on the business. basicaly killed all indies
>>20391075This is almost word for word the same rant as the coke head but in a twitter "article" cause he can no longer find employment or publisher. He's even doing the MyAEW was rushed thing, which is true but there are clear obvious reasons for that other than "their TV deal isn't getting renewed in two years time". >>20391090why does every 4chan board have a weirdo who thinks there is a discord gangstalking him kek
BIG DICC NICC PICC FROM THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
>>20391100"the business" being WWE
>>20391100>basicaly killed all indiesIf they didn't the current economy would. The money isn't there for indies to thrive like that right now. Wasn't there even one that shut down this year because of that?
>>20391107>a discordAt least it's more modern than a "trade magazine" i'll give you that lmafooo
>>20391119read what i said again you fucking drooling retard
>>20390797only a rumor til meltzer reports it
>>20390797i'd like to see nick lopicc miss just once before i die but i don't think i'm gonna see it!
>>20391131its cause you're wrong. the only indie scene that was decimated was the UK one by WWE throwing tons of mark contracts their way - which is recovering anyway.
>>20391100they absolutely did, they even ruined the indie economy because AEW jobbers that maybe get one collision match a month will expect an indie promoter to fly them in and get them a hotel even if the show is a 4 hour drive from where that shitter lives.
Picc gods how we feelin today?
>>20391182redeemed
>>20391182Ptetty good
>>20390859>second biggest wrestling promotionSilver medal in Special Olympics
>>20391100>>20391153>AEW killed the 80s territories and wrestling's image in the 2000-2010s, not WWE!
>>20390797Who cares
>>20391235holy fuck you're retarded, no wonder you like aew LMAO
>>20391265Your dumb diaper consolewars got nothing to do with it. If you sit there farting on yourself, saying AEW ruined wrestling, when we all know it was dead before AEW existed, I'm gonna treat you like the slippery lil' faggot you are.
>>20391297
>>20391302>quick, post a meme! A meme! QUICKLY!kek
>>20391321someone get this aewtist his autism bag
>>20390797This explains why Tony has been hiding from social media and interviews. What a piece of shit. Be a man and admit you failed. Apologize to your cult.
>>20391329*ahem* you mean the AEW® Sensory Inclusive™ Bag
>>20391220i have exclusive images of mr khan and mr zaslav agreeing a ten year 10 billion dollar deal
>he retracted the whole thing >WBD straight up denied everything KWAB
>>20391349when was the last time he wrote an "article" about AEW? ill give u a clue it has to do with a fired KWABOTY
>>20391349He ain’t retract shit lil nigga
AEW is dead. Bury it.
>>20390797So old crazy Nick was right all along? Another L for the singular aewtist.
>>20391302>gif of a fired botching shitterlmao
>>20391405billions of words typed and decades of his life wasted hating on wwe and they will outlive him lol
>>20391405Nick stood up to a billionaire child and his cult. And won. That's based in my book.
>>20390797this is looking really grim Xirs.
>AEW will have [the remaining length of their deal] to secure a new television deal with [their current media partner or somebody else].
>>20391521Reports indicate the same is true for WWE, TNA and NJPW, not looking good for wrestling right now.
>>20391549Late breaking news here, I'm hearing the NFL only has until 2033 to come to a new deal with Amazon, CBS, FOX and NBC.
>As often happens in pro wrestling, the news was initially misunderstood — in part because the first prominent report came from high-powered industry agent Nick LoPiccolo, a vocal critic of Khan. >In wrestling’s highly tribal fan environment, the development was widely interpreted as a major blow to AEW.>In reality, it was not inherently negative. The idea outside the company was that an early courtesy heads-up from a business partner, giving AEW time to prepare contingency plans ahead of decisions that will be made by new ownership. lol.
>TV deal kills AEW, CNN, and basically every thing anti-Trump that isn't MSnowHogan wins baby
>>20391614Yep.>>20390797AEW IS DYING! KWAB
>>20391604>high-powered industry agentThis is what makes all the Nick shit so interesting. He's actually accomplished. He actually knows top people.Then there's Dave Meltzer who asks for info from random fans that attend wrestling shows. Runs stories about wrestlers without reaching out to them for confirmation or denial.Dave isn't a serious journalist. Nick is an insider. You'd have to be a retard to be on team Meltzer.
AEW to Logo when
>>20391349Not a retraction. He's just including Tony and co. coping over the news getting out
>>20391734Based Big Dick Nick was so successful he was gifted a child to blow him in his office whenever he needed a pick me up.Meltzer was too scared to even molest his own children, what a cuck.
>>20391349If this were so false then why would Tony and WBD rush that fast to try and squash it? I was on the fence before but ironically enough that kind of defensiveness makes me think it is true nowOf course Tony doesn't want it getting out. For an endless number of reasons like ratings cratering even more, fans giving up on a lame duck product, wrestlers wanting to get out of their contracts, etc. But WBD is also still in the midst of their Paramount sale and don't want any bad press out either
>>20391750>Tony and co.WBD denied it. read the updated article and get back to me.
>>20391768It just makes too much sense. Of course Paramount won't renew AEW. Before Paramount kwab'd Netflix, WBD's cable channels were going to be sold separately. Not renewing AEW would be in line with the other cost cutting moves they've been making ahead of a sale.
>>20391019>the industry will be fine without aewnot a fan of aew or tony but aew is not going to die without a tv deal. tony has more than enough money to keep them going until they secure some kind of new deal. if tna can survive all these years then so can aew.... as long as tony wants to keep aew operating it will continue
>>20391784wbd denied sharing pre-sale information. that is different than telling tony they can't negotiate the option year.
>>20390797AEW isn't getting a new TV deal. It's grotesquely unpopular and its ratings are stuck in a death spiral. Nobody wants it. That's why Tony's prepping to move to Youtube.
>>20390842He misses his job, his wife, his kids. In a few months, when the savings run out, he will miss his house, his car. This time next year, when he is wiping tables at McDonald's, he is going to miss a great many things.Still, he managed to impress a bunch of 5'2, obese e-tards enough to get ten likes on each tweet, so I'm sure it was worth it.
>>20391898Holy parasocial schizo
>>20391898
>>20391107>He's even doing the MyAEW was rushed thing, which is true but there are clear obvious reasons for that other than "their TV deal isn't getting renewed in two years time".Yeah it was because Triller is their main Euro paypacket and it was going out of business. It's still not available on Google Play either so it's obviously still in beta.
>>20391920>and it was going out of businessIt's been going out of business for years now though. That wasn't unforeseen. It didn't blindside anybody. That's been known for a long ass time. Definitely long enough that they didn't have to scramble together their own streaming service. Also if Triller died then why couldn't MAX just pick up the international streaming rights too? Did they not want to pay AEW more money?
>>20391879how many stations/networks are there? im sure someone out there will offer him something. certainly not a lot but he has enough money to cover the rest
>>20390797So that man trannies call crazy actually broke the news?
>>20391734All facts. Picc is more plugged in with entertainment sources than any dirt sheet writer.
>>20391974Tony demanded so much money for ROH that it never got a TV deal. His demands for Dynamite and Collision are probably absurd and he's pricing out any network that might be interested.
>>20390991>>20391081Leg status?
>>20392009>Tony demanded so much money for ROH that it never got a TV deal.thats right i forgot about that. he also paid too much, around $40 million, for ROH.
>>20391974There were no outside bidders last time around, that’s how AEW’s deal went from a rumored 5 year/$1 billion deal to a 3 year/$450 million deal. And WWE has only taken up more of the possible bidders since then.
>>20391994Yup. Dirtsheets don't know shit. They're just marks with a few connections to random wrestlers in their DMs or maybe they know someone super low on the totem pole management wise. No dirtsheet has ever broken any major story in wrestling. That's all you need to know. They're essentially the gossip tabloids to the actual big name publications on the magazine rack
>>20390797AEW losing TBS/TNT? Now why does that sound so familiar. I could have sworn something similar happen 25 years ago...what could it be?
>>20392307Not another Turner wrestling failure
>>20392307Poetic after the weeks of le 2000 WCW spam they put us through
>>20392307Are you talking about Northern Mid-South Pacific Wrestling?
This is literally just the same shit we've already been talking about. A different twitter person is writing about the tweets by the original twitter shizo.There is nothing to react to that you have not all already reacted to a hundred times already.Many anons want this to be true because they want to win. Playing console wars with their favourite wrestling companies is their life. They don't even bother to ask "is this new information I'm reacting to or the same thing I've already reacted to five hundred times being served back up to me for me to eagerly devour like a dog might its own sick?"Read a book. Go outside. Do something else.
>>20392804>Uncontrollable cryingSomeone is still really mad lol.
just heard the news about the cancellation and left my wife in the delivery room so i could come out in the hall and laff at AEW. haha!
>>20392826If it's a girl please name her Tonyina Khan Jr
>>20392736
>>20390797Uh oh stinky AEW
>>20392731>>20392736>>20392739History repeats. Maybe not the end of AEW yet, but in terms of not being on TBS/TNT, it's happening again.
>>20391991And I guess wrestling media is pissed at him because he's not a real "journalist" so he shouldn't be breaking /pw/ news. Gatekeeping faggots.Reminds me of when Nick Shirley uncovered corruption in MN and all the major media networks shit themselves, "Hey! He's not allowed to do that!"
>>20390797I don't know who to believe
>>20390797How will AEW dipshits spin AEW getting cancelled?
>>20390797>Piccolo with the special beam cannon
>>20391026>with either Paramount
so smackdown and aew run out at the same time? tony has a chance yet.
>>20394262Sure. Of course. The show doing 1.2milly and the show doing no 6-hundy are totally in competition with each other
>>20394301they are
>>20394159On Renewal Day 2, I recommend suicide by shotgun. You e-tards are too obese to hang yourselves - probably bring the whole house crashing down!
So yall now believing the words of some schizo without any proof?
>>20394423I can hear you crying from here
tony shut down nicks x account again>LoPiccolo revealed the lockout on Instagram, showing a platform notice that temporarily limited his account features, preventing him from posting or interacting. This marks the second time his account has been restricted in a short span.
>>20394459Might have been the FCC. I said earlier that Zaslav leaking proprietary information during an active merger would be Tony Khan Levels of retarded.
>>20394459Based Tony
>>20394459Why can’t Pickle Nick and his simps like stop breaking the rules lol. Then they complain when people take away their privilege to post abuse on the internet!
>>20394510AEW is anti-Free Speech? I'll remember that when you're crying that Kimmel got canceled just like Dynamite.
>>20392250>There were no outside bidders last time aroundgrim> AEW’s deal went from a rumored 5 year/$1 billion deal to a 3 year/$450 million deali also wonder how these networks even make their money. tnt is just blocks of old shows... like charmed, cold case, and big bang. how can they afford to spend 500 million on something?? no way they can make back that initial investment
>>20394569networks make money by selling commercial time. the larger the audience, the more commercial time costs. the viewer is the product that networks sell.
>>20394583true but i cant see a network like tnt making hundreds of millions a year when they only have about 10 shows on their schedule. i looked at the schedule and its dire. some days its nothing but charmed. no way charmed reruns have a large audience enough audience to generate millions every year
>>20394598charmed was on wb network, it might be free for tnt to air. friends was produced & distributed by wb, it might also be free. even big bang theory was produced by warner brothers. maybe the wb broadcast side was paying the wb studios/library side. just moving money from 1 pocket to another.
>Hey Nick it's Dave. If you could stop telling people I did highly illegal shit that would be great>MUSTARD!!!!
>>20394481there is a gap between proprietary information and 'we can't negotiate an extension during a sale'. the sale to netflix or paramount was already public last summer.
>>20394642>Friends is freeIt's not free because of residuals. Syndication is on the way out as well. Most of the sitcoms will move to FAST platforms
>>20391220why would a crazy homeless man on the brink of suicide be meeting the head of WDB?
>>20394459>Troll and harass people all day>Surprised when he's reported
>>20394759>t. snitchbitch
>>20394770>Everyone's allowed to be harassed and trolled except meHow are the kids Nicky
Nicky still crashing out on twitter then?
>>20394827All day ery day.
AEW fag tranny horse fuckers? Our response? Cope, if any?
>>20394827Day ending in Y
the silliest thing about this is nick wants strong alternatives to wwe so he can maximize his clients contracts. instead of listening, tony threatened to kill his daughter. tna listened, they got on amc. nwa listened, they made a deal with cw, then roku, then comcast. mlw has been scrambling for a new tv deal since last september, after listening to nick. they even aligned with cmll & njpw and can provide the same international talent as aew, at 5% the cost. maple leaf did the same and worked a tv deal with tsn. everyone crying about nick is ignoring tony doesn't have an exclusive deal with tnt/tbs. he has been failing to get roh a tv deal for years, he never found a buyer for rampage or shockwave. its been 18 months and the biggest thing that happened was triller, his ppv distributor, going bankrupt. aew has a specific demographic, a consolidated audience that limits advertiser interest.the nba crossover didn't work, the tennis crossover didn't work. the ridiculous fairway to hell golf crossover isn't going to work. aew is for the sickos and that audience gets 42% smaller every year.
>>20395000>tony threatened to kill his daughterSource?
>>20395312It's schizophrenic headcanon with 0 basis in reality
>>20391604>give you notice that you're about to stabbed so you can arrange your funeral
90 percent of the posts on the board are from Dickolo pickolo himself and the other 9 percent of posts are from edrones trying to dunk on aew who they've claimed is going out of business any day now since day dot.
>>20395490So basically 99% of the threads created on this board was your boogeyman Nick. Anon, you are absolutely mindraped. Seek mental help immediately!
>>20394024EXACTLY
>>20394024Winner winner chicken dinner
damn this board is fucking full of weirdo losers kek wrestling is so gay
finna get cancelled like rampage
>>20390797Kek Pissant
Tony Khan has sent some sort of biological or radioactive box to Nick LoPiccolo's doorstep. Luckily he had protective equipment to prevent any toxins from getting into his body. This is getting out of hand all because Picc had exposed the truth of Tony's chicanary. There's almost certainly a chance Dave Meltzer is coming by again today to confirm the kill, luckily I have used some old soda cans to construct a fielding sword for self protection. It likely is not sturdy enough to last more than a few swings but that should be enough for Nick to drive off an intruder.
>>20396040Big Nicky, you gotta get out of there man. Meltzer and Tony are gonna take you out unless you start running now
>>20390800Yeah, it'll be a better story than WWE continuing to shit the bed. I have no ill will towards either company really so I'm just watching from the side lines.
>>20394654Except the sale hadn't been made and was far from finalized hence why you just said 'Netflix OR Paramount.' If there's an 'or' involved with who the other party of the sale even is then it doesn't mean shit for the time being. Just like when you opened up that reply box you could've posted something smart OR retarded. Guess which route you chose
>>20395000facts only
>>20394657lisa kudrow just said last week she still makes $20 million every year from friends
>>20390797>Sources close to Khan say he has told associates that AEW is prepared to move to YouTubeTony making sure he retains KWABOTY this year
>>20391933>Why couldn't MAX pick up the international streamingBecause Max is a primarily US based streaming service that hasn't even rolled out globally yet, dingus.
>>20397124Yeah you really got me there. AEW's supposedly huge blockbuster streaming move was them landing on a platform that doesn't even have international reach. What an own on me that is, dingus.
>>20397124so no other single platform that streams internationally wanted to pay for aew?
>>20397165When the company wanted to stream to their biggest audience, they went with HBO MAX. But Max isn't a *global* streaming service, so MyAEW was built to replace Triller on that front. And if you're asking "why'd they rush out MyAEW", at least one of their PPVs last year aired on *tape delay* because of issues with Triller. The quicker they got off there the better.
>>20390797release the joshipedos to slide the board and kill it with cancer
>>20397063>Tony making sure he retains KWABOTY this yearHell, this being AEW's final 12 months, TK might just retire that Award, with an undefeated streak like Goldberg!
>>20397202So they couldn't find another streaming service that is global who wanted to pay them to air things?
>>20391329>someone get this aewtist his autism bagThey never lived that down did they/them?
>>20399060If by "They never lived that down" you mean "4chan beat a dead horse into the ground" sure.
>>20399749Why are u, an aewtist, necrobumping an anti-aew thread? R u really that lonely.
>>20399749Ok how you know?

as an a mentally ill aew faggot, im gonna chop my cock off about this
>>20402210you still have your peen?
Almost everyone on the planet has youtube, they should have never given up dark.
>>20390797Meltzergods....where is the cope
>>20402361He’s saying it’s nonsense but adding the caveat that anything can happen so that when Picc’s report turns out to be true, Meltzer already has an out
>>20402371>but adding the caveat that anything can happenKek so it's true and this is his way of defending Tony and AEW while also protecting his own ass. Pitiful
>>20402236not any more, i just chopped it off to show my support for tony and aew
>>20402440Dave is a double talking lying bitch just like Tony. When they turn on each other it finna be glorious! Unless Tony keeps paying him after AEW is canceled. Anything is possible.
>>20402447It's in the mail xir.
