If AEW is so good why is no-one watching it?
>>20768545No one knows it exists. Tony doesn't fucking pay for marketing. If people actually knew how good AEW truly is, it would easily outdraw WWE.
It's not good
I hate tko and have been trying to like aew. I’m rooting for it. But the fans gaslighting is insufferable. Most matches are mid with no psychology. They do cool moves but that’s about it. No one cares if anyone is gay or not but making it your Montra is off putting and cringe.
>>20769827>MontrarEtard
>>20768545Just because McDonald's is the biggest doesn't mean it has the best food
>>20770196Yeah but the dogshit homeless shelter doesn't have the best food either
>>20770192Sucking dick and spellchecking forums where everyone uses slang are not positive life mantra’s
>>20769827go back
>>20770222Pipe down. Men are talking.
It's funny when edrones say this shit as the ratings have declined for decades.
Classic insufferable aew fan. You are what’s holding your faggot company back. Thinking only you and your homosexual transitioning boyfriend can watch is strange.
I’ll feel bad for Tony and aew talent when they lose the tv deal. Watching the aew trannys cry will be entertaining though
>>20770236They could decline for more decades and still be higher then aew. Especially after they lose the tv deal.
>>20770236You keep spamming the screenshot and conveniently leaving out that this episode of Raw aired in the middle of the afternoon in the US. IIRC is aired at 11:00 AM on the west coast. Of course it got low ratings.
>>20770233Yeah, men are talking about how AEW sucks ass and has never turned a profit, piggy.
>>20770236All you are saying is WWE's worst is better than AEW's best
>>20768545Exactly. If it was any good we would be watching it but we're not.
>>20770264rEtard says what? Pipe down.
>>20768585I see ads for AEW on TNT and TBS every time I'm at the gym. They definitely market it. No one watches because it sucks. It's a vanity project for an autistic nepobaby.
>>20770277Uh oh, piggy's squealin' now.
>>20770282Partisan faggots like this are why neutral fans hate aew. Then they will tell you a 66 year old Jew called a guy cute and gave him stars so we are supppse to care.
>>20768545One "person" here says it's good.
>>20770282
All current wrestling is trash. But the AEW fans are the biggest group of annoying pick me homosexuals I have encountered. They ensure it will never grow to a prosperous level.
>>20768545AEW fans are out there.If you live in a city infested with chinks, jeets and trannies like Brooklyn, Seattle, San Jose or Toronto you'll encounter AEW fans in real life.If you've never met an AEW fan in real life, enjoy your city while it's still livable.
>>20770236wwe is absolute shit but that doesnt mean AEW isn't much worse
>>20768545>why is no-one watching it?Based on what, Nielsen boomer ratings? No one uses TVs anymore, unc
>>20770353Tony paid Nielsen to fudge the numbers in order to make the ratings look better and the ratings are still shit. KWAB
>>20770353Based on live shows. Aew with a 70 percent decline in tickets sold for all in since 2023. After they lose the tv deal Tony can make up fake numbers on my aew!
>>20770353The weekly show attendance is down as well and that’s a pretty good gauge. They be putting tarps up and moving to smaller venues like Mexican restaurants and mini golf courses
>>20769147>>20768585>>20768545>>20770256>>20770264>>20770265Hope this helps.(:
>>20768545But they do watch it, second most popular wrestling promotion right now
>>20770825They get big sports lead ins and people still tune out hahaha
>>20770880Has nothing to do with what I said, got any proof it’s not the second biggest wrestling promotion in the US?>>20770827They aren’t, do you get your news from schizos on a containment board?
>>20770811This helps nothing and just shows you worship a 66 year old Jew. It actually makes your existence saddening that you think it helps your cause.
>>20770887I didn’t day it wasn’t number 2. However all wrestling is trash and they are bleeding. Ratings are down but the best indicator of popularity is live attendance. There’s a reason they are doing smaller buildings. What percentage is it down anon? Well from 2023 all in it’s down 70 percent.
>>20770890
Overall AEW live event averages (including PPVs, which boost numbers) from Wrestlenomics/WrestleTix estimates: • 2019: ~5,600• 2020: ~3,600• 2021: ~5,700• 2022: ~5,100• 2023: ~5,300• 2024: ~4,227 (down significantly)• 2025: ~3,165We don’t have the numbers yet but 2026 is set to be a record low for trannys. Hahaha
Approximate Yearly Averages for AEW Dynamite• 2019 (Debut on TNT): Strong launch. Debut drew 1.409 million viewers. Monthly/overall averages often 800,000–1+ million, with peaks over 1M. High interest in the Wednesday Night Wars era. • 2020: Impacted by pandemic (some empty-arena or limited shows). Averages generally 700,000–900,000, with several episodes near or over 1M during hot periods. • 2021: Solid year with big angles (e.g., Blood & Guts, CM Punk debut). Many episodes 800,000–1.1+ million; peaks like Grand Slam over 1.2M. Annual average likely ~850,000–950,000. • 2022: TBS debut and continued momentum. Strong consistency around 900,000–1M+ for many weeks, with specials higher. Annual average ~900,000–1M. • 2023: Gradual decline but still competitive. Averages trended ~800,000–900,000, with Grand Slam and other big shows boosting. • 2024: Noticeable drop. Many episodes in the 600,000–800,000 range, with lows under 600k. Annual average roughly ~650,000–750,000. • 2025: Further softening. Averages around ~600,000 (e.g., one report noted ~605k for parts of the year). Some surges but overall lower, with more sub-600k episodes. • 2026 (ongoing): Mixed, with lows in the 400,000–600,000 range early on and occasional surges (e.g., 700k+ in strong weeks). Quarterly averages often ~600,000–650,000 for Dynamite; recent examples include 616k (June) and varying 500k–765kHoly shit that’s a lot of lost viewers
>>20770278Real Marketing is done on Social Media now. Popular opinion considers Wrestling synonymous with WWE, with companies like AEW or TNA seen as feeder leagues. AEW needs to find a way to address this.
>>20768545>If AEW is so good why is no-one watching it?See, the thing is, what I mean is, ah, aew FUCKING SUCKS!
the most popular things is always the worst thing cause it has to appeal to the lowest common denominator. look at music (any genre) or the movies that make the most money. the most popular music and movies are retardtier. they can be fun, but they're nowhere near the best music or greatest films
>>20771999Trips confirm
>>20772042lol the cope. Yeah and sometimes things just fucking suck like the xflCompared to the nfl. Or nba compared to wnba.
>>20772042Hipster mentality and probably why everyone hates you. Everything that is subjective in life you pretend to have “better” taste in. since your an aew trannys there’s a 50 percent chance you attempt to kys. I feel like watching aew might be a culprit in that percentage.
>>20772042This argument flagrantly ignores reality and doesn't even attempt to address what's really going on. NFL is the highest grossing sport in the US not because game tickets are $10 each, but exactly because it appeals to fans at every income bracket. Fans with higher incomes are the ones buying 10-20 jerseys, not wearing the same jersey from 20 years and 4 logo changes ago. WWE in its current incarnation is printing money for the same reason: even as the fandom shrinks, the existing fanbase continues to engage with the social media, the merchandise, going to shows, all of the above.AEW has poor video media (simply reposting match clips), many top stars have almost no presence on social media (Hangman, Moxley, Okada, Takeshita, Darby) or are repellant to fans (MJF, Ricochet, Ospreay), the merchandise is purposely outlandish print-on-demand garbage meaning they release the stupidest shit possible knowing they lose $0 if it doesn't sell because they aren't buying in bulk. AEW is a company that survives on insisting upon itself, not because the wrestlers have created a unified front and are pushing as hard as possible. AEW has too many Mike Trouts and not enough Shohei Ohtanis, wrestlers actively seeking endorsement deals, partnerships, wanting to be anywhere and everywhere at the same time.You can have your "family life"You can not be run raggedYou can have your "me time" and not constantly be with/around the fansBut this is the trade-off. Not being talked about anywhere close to as much as the #1 company.
>>20772042nailed it. they'll have no counter arguments btw. just seething and calling names (just like a low iq normie bitch would kek)
daily reminder that AEW is the ONLY wrestling promotion with viewership numbers that are up YOY from 2025. for whatever reason this simple fact makes e-drones seethe.
>>20772108>NO ITS NOT TRUE THAT THE MOST POPULAR AND MAINSTREAM THINGS ARE PRODUCED FOR LOW IQ RETARDS !>*here's how much money SPORTS franchises are making*edrones are subhuman
>>20772105Hi Swiftie
>>20768545Kek based Ring General
>>20768545Same thing with listeners and rock music.
>>20772686Put on your name trip bitchtits
>>20772439if you want to be a fucking faggot and embarrass yourself there's not much I can do to stop you. I can't make you not be a retard and not shitpost every time you're getting destroyed and have no counterargument.There's never been a single show in the history of television with an audience with an average IQ of 120, and you're being a disingenuous fucking cocksucker to even imply it's possible or ever been the case, ever actively or by omission.
>>20768545>why is no-one watching it?because AEW fucking sucks, there was a whole song about it and everything
>>20768545Slopdown is watched by 1.2M people and Blackedraw by 2.4M people ON NETFLIX, ALL OVER THE WORLD, stay humble lil bro
>BlackedrawWe're not talking about your porn stash Trevor
Nobody watches aew
the RAW airing rn must be the FUCKING SHITS if this is what the singular mindraped Drone is doing for entertainment at this hour on a Monday night. Posting about his Irish mancrush boyfriend again
>>20768545- AEW fans spend 3 out of 4 weeks of every PPV cycle begging for more WWE wrestlers- They then spend a few days before and few days each PPV saying everyone should watch/it was the greatest ever- RepeatTheir fans aren't like ECW fans, who fully believed they were part of a movement and had to fight for ECW's survivalAEW fans just wait for Daddy Khan to shell out more millions for new action figures and spend all their time shitposting/trolling
>>20772042Historically, this is not true. The highest grossing films and music in the past were the best of their time. We are just in a cultural nadir where the mainstream entertainment is shit but so is the niche stuff like AEW.
>>20776668We've been looking at this all wrong. Instead of destroying Tony, we need to get our hands in his pockets like everybody else. I got a plan but there's too many busy little bees on this forum.
>>20769827NJPW isn't as strong as it once was but it's still very watchable and accessible (all shows have English commentary). Worth checking out if you're burned out on the American wrestling scene.
>>20777893No EVIL. No watch.
>>20777908Kek, come on man, House of Torture is still running strong!I suppose if NJPW without EVIL is a no-go there's always Stardom.
>>20772451quit projectingI don’t listen to Taylor swift but that’s interesting she is the first artist that comes to your mind.A top music artist representing what most people like would be like The Rolling Stones. A representation of aew in music would be something like Millie vanilla the lip syncing homosexuals or Soulja boy. Most people don’t think it’s good but some niche gay guy thinks it’s 5.5 stars.
>>20772436Daily reminder they need more tarps at the live shows because no one goes.
>>20772436What are you taking about its overall a lower average it just had some surges. Don’t worry when they lose the tv deal and go to my aew Tony can make the numbers up.
>>20772439lol trannys trying to cope, a grim existence trying to swindle us that aew Is the fine dining or high end art. It’s literally cheaper, less quality and not liked by the masses because they don’t like pandering homosexuals. It’s the gas station food to wwe’s Burger King. Or the top horror movie would be something like Halloween or Friday the 13th where aew would be represented by Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama or leprechaun in space. Sure they are fun and have “high spots” but you look like an imbecile trying to paint any of it as high end.
>>20778069this is incorrect. YOY viewership is up, the only such wrestling program which can make that claim in 2026.
>>20778049hmm>posts on 4chan>Musical references cap at 40 years agokill yourself pedophile
>>20768545so how's your sex life?
>>20778117Why does grok say it’s not up??No, AEW’s year-over-year (YOY) viewership is generally not up from 2025—it’s mixed at best, often flat or down, especially in the key 18-49 demographic, with complications from Nielsen’s methodology changes. Key Context on Data• Nielsen changes: Major shifts began in late Sept. 2025 (Big Data + Panel), with cable adjustments in Jan. 2026. This makes clean apples-to-apples YOY comparisons difficult, especially for the 18-49 demo (often down sharply). • AEW’s main shows are Dynamite (TBS, flagship) and Collision (TNT). Viewership typically hovers in the 500k–700k range for Dynamite and lower for Collision.Dynamite (Primary Show) Trends• Total viewers (P2+): Some quarterly or monthly averages show slight gains vs. 2025 (e.g., Q2 2026 ~635k vs. ~627k in 2025; certain months like Feb/Mar up). Recent episodes (e.g., July 1, 2026: 634k) can be up week-to-week or vs. same week prior year in spots. • However, early 2026 saw lows (e.g., ~500k in Jan), with surges (e.g., 700k+ in March/April) followed by drops. Overall YTD/averages are often comparable or slightly down from stronger 2025 periods. • 18-49 demo: Consistently down significantly (often 30-50%+ YOY in reported quarters/months), due partly to measurement changes. • Other stretches show minor declines. Recent episodes have been lower (e.g., In short: Total viewership is roughly stable or marginally improved in spots for 2026 so far, but not a clear “up” YOY trend, and the key demo is softer. For the latest specifics, sites like Wrestlenomics track weekly data closely.
>>20778121No stats or rebuttals?? Aew just sucks dick and ya gotta accept it huh . Since you are the king of projecting one can assume you are the pdf. I mean walks like a duck talks like a duck likes aew yeah he’s a pedo.
>>20778117You lie like a Jew. AAA is up in 2026
>>20775235oh dear!
>>20768545Coz' its the shits ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>20776779>I got a plan but there's too many busy little beeswhats ur pla n
If AEW sucks why are you thinking and posting about it every single day of your life?
>>20780093you responded to this thread in under 2 minutes, it clearly makes you rage to see AEW in the crosshairs, so of course AEW will continue to be targeted
>>20768545Approximately 900k combined sickos faithfully watch Dynamite and Collision every week.
>>20768545I--it's a secret c-club
>>20780996>in under 2 minutes>5 hours after it startedare you perhaps retarded?
>>20780996>in under 2 minutesWhere are you seeing this btw?
>>20768545Who said it was good?
>>20778242KILLSHOT
>>20778049>A top music artist representing what most people like would be like The Rolling Stones. A representation of aew in music would be something like Millie vanilla
>>20778231Boom goes the dynamite
>>20781714Dear zoom zoom no one cares about your latest teen bop song in the context of the history of music. 100 years from now people will still know classic music like The Rolling Stones but not give a shit about your tiger beat trash
>>20781714A swifty posted this
>>20768545if aew was as easily accessed as wwe (on netflix) i’d watch it. can’t be fucked watching any wwe there though
>>20778231probably because AI is for retards? and even that says it's improved, just splits hairs about what "up" means, probably because you're a fucking schizo that kept asking it until you got an answer that didn't make you seethe.
>>20782289You clowns tried ti say it was up where I pointed out it was down with some slight surges . Then I backed it up with receipts so you’re here crying.
>>20782289Are you the retard who claimed it was the only promotion up yoy from 2025 then got btfo’d when AAA was brought up??
>>20768545Because AEW fans are too busy watching and discussing WWE
>>20782282Paying for either is a scam. Steam both on Watch wrestling and skip all commercials
>>20782328Or just stop watching prowrestling. At lesst for a while. It would do all of you some good.
>>20782326This. Anytime AEW is head to head with WWE AEW kisses kike 60% if it's audience
>>20768545People like the president more when they don't hear about him. That's what AEW is for smarks. They want a "good" show to exist so they can say it is better than WWE, but they don't actually want to watch it.
>>20782822No one watches GayEW
But people do watch it
>>20782318Frayed sow
>>20768545because AEW fans would rather watch the superior show WWE and pretend that they don’t enjoy it better than the pathetic wet fart that is AEW
>>20787941>"I watch WWE for the stories and AEW for the wrestling."Surprised we never hear this cope on /pw/?
You know what OP that's a really good question, maybe our resident singular AEW fan can answer this?
how is this thread still up? i made it last week fs
>>20789605You didn't make this thread
>>20768545Wish I could tell you
>>20768545It's a mystery no matter how many burner cage match reviews their sycophants put on, it's still not catching a milly
>>20789605Happened to me once. Made a thread that some anons kept alive for over two weeks. No idea why.
>>20768545Because it's for fags and trannies
>>20768545It isn't good that's why. It is legitimate dog slop horse shit
>>20791575that's unfair to horse shit which has some utility as a fertilizerAEW just plain fucking sucks
>>20792509That's true
>>20768545Summerslop is going to have 50k empty seats Raj
>>20793106Sure it is Cripplehouse, meanwhile All Tarps London will have 70,000 empty seats
>>20768545It's bad. The fans have attached their self worth to that brand and constantly force and praise the smallest thing about it.Then you watch and see that it's just sports entertainment slop and shit.
>>20778242Cooked that pedo.
>>20770211why are you eating from the homeless shelter, dronie?
