Do you feel the Street Profits have actually gone backwards since affiliating themselves with Bobby Lashley? Seems they both had some solo opportunities before, and now are barely doing anything, even as a Team.
They have been languishing a bit, yes. I think the win on Smackdown on Friday was needed, for sure. They have a ton of talent and from what I have heard the company knows that.
How weird do you find that all the companies are referring to each other on their broadcasts? I find it especially weird how WWE mentioned MLW on the air right after their lawsuit was settled and I don't think it was part of the settlement that they were mentioned. Also how long do you think it will be before the big companies do crossover matches cuz that's starting now with WrestleMania week with small companies with big company talent being used.
I like the mentions. It's a new world. There's no need to act like other places don't exist or remove their history from broadcasts. As for crossover matches, I could see more things like Jordynne Grace’s appearance at the Royal Rumble. I don’t see full on big crossover matches, but I could see some smaller stuff happening.
Does it bother you have much fake news is being reported lately in wrestling?
It does, yes. It’s sad how many people are just “reporting” whatever pops into their heads to try and get clicks. What’s even sadder to me is that so many people are so gullible that they keep going back to unreliable sources and believe the lies that those hacks tell them. I have never understood why people continue to frequent news sources that are often wrong. That’s just a different kind of stupid to me.
So TK’s 3 high-priced and splashy debuts don’t turnaround Dynamite’s sagging ratings. I can see TK easily spending $30 to $45 million for the total contractual value for all 3 new signees and we still haven’t heard anything about the latest TV deal talks! I can’t put my finger on it, but this situation seems bad. I don’t want AEW to go under, but am I mistaken that TK appears unconcerned - when he should be?
I have no idea what the value is of the three contracts but it’s significant, for sure. So far, the needle has stayed where it was before they came in. It could be that Khan has already done a deal with WBD and it’s being saved until the upfronts in May, but I can’t say that’s the case. To answer your question, I think he needs to be concerned if his father tells him that unless he gets profitable, he is cutting off the money to keep the promotion going. If that doesn’t happen, he will plow forward.
Which wrestlers would you put on the dollar bills/coins?
None to be honest. As much as I love the business, I think the people on the currency now are more important to the country.
