But again, we didn't have the money for it

Why the hell is no one talking about this? From AEW latest Road to Double or Nothing. Cody's own words. Not enough money to pay their superstars... And people think this is competition for WWE?

I don't think the Khan's were involved yet, they have a lot more money now.

All In was before the Khans, ya brainlet.

You think Khan will really give them all his money? No way is he that dumb. Otherwise he wouldn't be rich. That money would be gone in a year with Cody signing everybody under the wrestling sun.

It's not too late to delete this thread, OP. Save yourself the embarrassment.

op go to the brain shop and buy one

And now he's got a negro like his wife handling the money. This company is fucked.

Oh no.
OP, please. Stop.
He does not.

I don't believe it.
Most of those guys probably did it for free

How humiliating. Thank God Dusty wasn't around to see this.

AEW won't last more than two years. They don't even have a weekly live TV deal. This is going to be worse than impact. Can't even imagine the smell at DON

It's a fucking start up. The Khans invested their money knowing it wouldn't turn a profit immediately. They're not half-assing it, stop being a brainlet.

Yeah, can you imagine working for free??

Sad!

They got a spot on the most important event in wrestling the last 20 years

What a mark.

Hot dogs and handshakes.

And people wonder why there isn't a TV deal yet. Stunning incompetence. They had low viewership on WGN as well in the lead-up show to all-incel.

>attendance of 10k at the most
>most important event

hahahahahahahah

It's likely to never turn a profit with how much they're signing these guys for. They'd need the business to run 10+ years to make back the money they spent.

sold out in under an hour. but you knew that anyway

yes im aware how many neckbeard wrestling fans there are

With ticket prices so low they couldn't afford to pay the talent after the event

The vast majority of startups do not turn any real profit in the first decade, jesus you are retarded
