Okay I guess I'm wrong on that! I was mostly just looking at PPVs, admittedly, which is probably more fair to compare to a 12000 show since we should be comparing shows with hype to shows with hype, but whatever.

I still think you guys are underestimating the value of a TV deal though. Like I have a lot of lapsed wrestling fan friends who knew what TNA was back when it was on Spike every week. Usually they'd just make fun of its name, sometimes they'd be like "wow Kurt Angle is on this show!" then promptly tune out to never return after seeing Kurt Angle.

But yeah like, not one of them knows what AEW is, currently, or at least haven't mentioned anything about it. Granted those people aren't buying tickets to see shows or PPVs or anything either.

Like if your argument is AEW is bigger currently among current wrestling fans than TNA ever was I could buy that. Bigger among the population as a whole though I don't know. There's a certain notoriety having a show on a fairly large Cable TV network every week brings you. Less now with more cord cutting I guess but still.

Now this is moot because AEW has a TV deal and they'll have that very soon, but we're talking currently.
