Then TK pulls up KZbin and shows MJF his stats are mediocre, then over to Twitter where where doesn't even have half of Omega's followers, and he tells him "All the Corny-side of the IWC praise won't change the reality that AEW is more valuable to you than you are to AEW, so STFU and do what I tell you to do"

The problem is there is simply no room It's in the industry for a number 2 to ever get his close to the number one as it was in the nineties. There simply is not enough wrestling fans anymore. They watch they watch reality TV now. Think about it reality TV today is what wrestling was in the eighties and nineties. The moment reality TV Hit wrestling fan numbers have been on a steady decline And has plateau'd at about 1 to 2 million people. People used to think wrestling was real, Or so in the eighties than the nineties, But instead of watching wrestling for They're scripted shows they think are not scripted they now watch reality shows for their shows they think are not scripted but are. There will never be another number 2 like WCW was or WWF was or when wcw was number one. Is everything is just too fragmented now.

Exactly, too much to watch now. Not enough prowrestling fans to watch, ufc, Bellator and mma in general have siphoned off a huge portion of the audience years ago, then you’ve got streaming services all over, wwe was smart getting a streaming deal with peacock. That’s the future of television viewing. Cornette can’t understand this because all he watches is traditional tv, that’s why all he parrots is cnn talking points like a boomer. God forbid he actually read something like the Wall Street journal or associated press online etc. No. I think that’s one facet Jim doesn’t understand and just blames the low ratings on rotten wrestling now that’s part of it, but not the whole picture. You get it.

I read that Malakai Black is on $2 million ayear, which got me thinking. There's going to come a point where ex-WWE people like PAC, Malakai, FTR, Ruby, Rusev and Andrade's contracts are going to expire. By then their stock and bargaining power is going to be lesser than it was when WWE released them. What's going to happen then? Is Tony going to want to continue pay Malakai Black two million a year to appear on Dark? There isn't a single ex-WWE AEW roster member that's in a better position than they were in WWE. For all the talk of AEW "giving people a place to perform", I feel like AEW's existance has harmed wrestling as a whole, indie wrestling was far better in 2017 than it is now (AEW killed RoH) and imagine being a lapsed fan of the Attitude Era (a real one, not a pretend one on Reddit) and hearing the buzz about this new company that's "real prowrestling", getting excited and then actually seeing this big budget trampoline fed bullshit. One more thing; I bet Tony cried. He seems like the type to cry.

You make valid points. From what I have seen on different video threads and comment sections, the audience they appeal to doesn't want to hear any of it. From their perspective, AEW is doing just fine and so on and so on. AEW is competition, they are getting good numbers, WWE better be careful because they can go out of business any minute ( they almost forget that it would be horrible if WWE went under for so many reasons) I am pretty sure you have read all the statements they lay out over and over again. At some point, you just have to throw your hands up in the air and give up because there is nothing you can say to them at this point.

From a company standpoint I can understand why a national promotion would want to have a wrestler run an appearance by them just to make sure they are prepared for any backlash/reaction to it that may come their way. If I were the booker/promoter, I would give MJF carte blanche to say whatever the hell he wanted to say, as long as he was being himself. Controversy creates cash, and I think people are going to be keeping an eye on MJF and as a result, AEW, for the next year plus until that contract runs out.

Only MJF gets it. The other 3 pillars aren't anything special, whatever flippy floppy stuff they do, some other midgit in AEW could do, they are all workrate and no personality. It's head scratching that TK thinks Dante, Yuta and Garcia are future stars when they have no personality/lack of mic skills, all workrate and nothing else. TK should be finding the next MJFs, the next Punk's, the next Danielson's, the next Cena's, people with unwavering confidence, promo ability, the larger than life personalities are the reason why most people watch wrestling, this types of talents are one of a kind, because you can never replace or replicate a personality.

Tony needs to talk to MJF and give him a new contract and just clean the house with the wrestlers he doesn't need that way he keep guys like MJF. Marco Stunt, Serpetico, Danhausen, even Orange Casisdy needs to leave, and keep guys with little more promise but not over paid them cause they're still green.

If someone on the roster was pissed and complained to Tony to force the issue with MJF, it has to be Kenny/the Bucks. MJF isn't part of their circle and MJF is a MAJOR threat to Kenny's status as "top guy". And if the rumors that Kenny may be trying for a May return without getting all of his surgeries, it indicates that the remaining "Elites" are TERRIFIED that their days are numbered and Kenny is coming back still hurt/injured to preserve their behind the scenes power.

I'm saying this as an AEW fan, the honeymoon period is coming to an end. The way things have panned out, it really isn't surprising at all that the company is cutting ties with guys like Janella and Big Swole. When they try to big-time the company in interviews, acting like they got a raw deal (even if they possibly did), it comes across as a bit desperate. MJF, however, has easily been one of the biggest standout stars of the company since it launched, he rose well above the pack of the initial roster. He should be making top star money in that company because he is a top star.
