Hey, anybody who watches AEW on the TNT app, does it come with ads? Can you just fast forward through them or does it make you watch?

Putting it on my laptop right now, I do not seem to be able to skip past the ads once the ad is playing

However: it seems if you're quick on the button, you can jump ahead before the ad starts playing, but once it does ... hope you like Snowpiercer ads

The TNT app (or maybe it was tntdrama.com) used to not show PiP, but that was months ago so maybe it is fixed

Have to watch ads. A timer counts down to when you it will go back to AEW. If it’s live, the countdown may end but because the network is still in commercial break, you’ll be looking at nothing for a bit.

Also to sell them toys AEW needs more kid friendly segments where children can relate to them. WWE still has a large audience of children and sell lots of toys, you can’t solely sell “collectibles” to grown rear end men and be a major company.

Not to imply this is their motivation with Brody Jr. they obviously are doing this out of love for his family I’m just saying it’s a positive by product of these segments.

It is a bit amusing that AEW got 854,000 for a show featuring Dr Luther, Peter Avalon, Nick Comoroto, and Leyla Hirsch. While it was a fun card top to bottom it was anything but a stacked card

I think it is too early for the Good Brothers to drop a fall in the context of this angle, but it also feels like the AEW and TNA halves of the angle are separate enough to not really matter if you beat the Good Brothers on one show while keeping them working on Dynamite.

Especially the demo rating. Before Winter is Coming they were doing pretty steady .3-.32s so a .36 is a small, but notable increase over where they were before a month of big shows and crazy news that skewed ratings both ways.

i would be incredibly surprised if the brothers dropped their titles to private party. the only non-impact team i can see taking them is the bucks, personally.

I think the play is having MCMG interrupt the title bout and beat Private Party.

there was also another kid there last night that AEW did a lot for, from the mom's description:

quote:

Unfortunately my son (who is Autistic) was bullied, kicked, and stabbed at his school last year. Bad enough and with no support from his school at the time we had to move. If we wasn't running away from the other kid, I dunno what the outcome would have been. He was wearing a wrestling t-shirt that got destroyed during the attack and the wrestling community found out. There has been nothing but love for him since, the community went over the top to show him love and kindness.

AEW supports anti bullying, and from day 1 of the company has always supported Autism, Autism Awareness and the whole community! AEW goes out of it's way to have supports in place for all of its fans, those with and without disabilities. All sports franchises need to follow what the Kahn's have put in place! You can tell, as a parent of an Autistic son, when companies "fake it". AEW, Daily's Place, Jaguars, Cody, the Front Office, the employees - especially the media and social media team, the ticket office, and all the wrestlers care. Truly care.
...
What AEW did, they did because they cared. They did not have to, they made last night so special for my family. No one pressured them into doing anything. No cameras around, no media, they got nothing out of it. Except they did get something, respect and love and lifetime fans. Cody spent time after the show, he knew my sons story and name, he made time for my daughter, who loves him.

They moved the family to front row seats, and Cody went down and spent some time with them:



and gave them a bunch of swag including a turnbuckle pad signed by the Dark Order and a weight belt signed by Cody

Yeah, I can't see Good Brothers dropping the belts...

...what I can see is Matt forcing them to throw the match because THE TRUTH IS THE TRUTH and there's some friction, but then come Revolution, Good Brothers pay it back by making the Bucks lose and then we get Ultra Heel Private Party that TK also hates since he threw Hardy Party at Impact specifically to mess with them, not join them.

When I looked into it during the show it didn't look like Sammy Hagar was on Cameo for it, but also I'm not super proficient at finding people on Cameo (or if there are non-Cameo versions) to be certain.

Wouldn’t be the first time AEW bought a Cameo for a bit. I also wouldn’t be surprised if Jericho and Hagar were buddies though either.

I know its many pages back but just a reminder that cody has lost 4 singles matches total in the history of aew, one was the towel throw, and mjf cheated pretty hardcore to win. If you add tag matches it gets a bit more even, but hes very rarely the pinfall victim. It's fair to say that he helps people look good but to say he loses a lot is a bit far imo.

Not saying I think he sucks or anything, but you cant boil hin down to going even with people in terms of pinfalls. He wins a lot, and his record is obviously pretty padded by that first tnt title run.
