never seen it summed up so well #AEWDoN 🤼
The importance of the last 12 months for AEW cannot be understated. No strong number #2 has survived through a WWE boom period before. Expansion crippled the territories. Attitude Era killed WCW and ECW. AEW meanwhile is standing strong after WWE's biggest financial years ever.

this is why it's so important that AEW stay the course and focus on being itself, i.e., an actual alternative with its own particular philosophy and approach to a wrestling presentation AEW will never overtake WWE and that's fine but they're in position to exist as a thriving #2 and that's good

I've been saying it for the last two years. AEW needs to weather the storm that has been WWE's popularity boom. And to do that, they needed to stay the course and focus on being the best AEW they can be. The last few months have been exactly that....
A question for #Wrestlesky I'm genuinely curious about. A lot (and i do mean a lot) of people are falling out of love with WWE, for very valid reasons. Should #AEW and TK try to cater to them and attract them somehow (idk how) or just ignore them and keep booking for the sickos?

Human rights are not political. Period. Hatred of the existence of people being a different skin colour, a different religion, a different orientation, a different gender, a different nationality, etc is not political discourse. We need to shut that shit down every chance we get.
There is nothing inherently political about being an inclusive environment, at all. There is absolutely no reason, AEW shouldn't do this. 100%. Lean into diversity. Lean into not being propaganda for a fascist movement in America. AEW should focus on the ALL, in All Elite Wrestling.
@tonykhan.bsky.social isn't the typical business leader in the USA. The same people who cheer Trump at UFC, and standby McMahon's at the White House, would probably have issue with Tony for his skin color. He can and should use AEW for a platform against the hate in America right now.
