Dave is providing pre-cope for tonight's Dynamite attendance. This is going to be bad isn't it?
No shit, Sherlock.
>>14567822I love when aewtists pretend like the normies that watch sports watch their tranny rodeo
>>14567830It's Canada, retard. Everybody watches hockey.
>>14567822>In Canada>During the Stanley CupThis isn't so much cope for once as it is just facts
>>14567822So what was the cope for the last 50 shows having bad attendance
>>14567830Everyone in Canada watches hockey man
>>14567822>tfw performing in front of empty seats again
>>14567822LOL. Dead fed.
>>14567854Last week's did great by their standards though
damn what are the odds for this to happen to AEW twice a week for over a year?
>>14567822I’m in Edmonton, and this is true.
>>14567822New pre cope just dropped
>>14567824>Porkwheels seething just one minute laterWhat a fucking loser
>>14567822FUCKING HOCKEY REEEE
>>14567840>>14567857Holy fucking cope, is every single show in canada then? The arenas are always mostly empty
>>14567822Does Meltzer ever reflect on the fact that AEW "fans" would seemingly rather do literally anything else, other than watch AEW?
>>14567907They were in Canada last week and it had a great turnout. The difference in hockey. I'm not sure why people are being intentionally obtuse of this or its significance in Canada
>>14567822Kek, What planet does this guy live on?
>>14567912>Does Meltzer ever reflect on the fact that AEW "fans" would seemingly rather do literally anything else, other than watch AEW?Repost this as its own thread, anon. This is goddamn gold!
>>14567923why are you calling me names? it's not my fault they booked a show in canada during the championship game that apparently EVERYBODY watches.
>>14567822Dave Meltzer is a fucking liar and a bullshit artist.The Edmonton Oilers won their series 4-1 -- anyone who pre-bought tickets for the 2nd Round would have known on April 28th, 8 full days ago when the Oilers went up 3-1 with Game 5 being at home, that the Oilers were likely to move on to the next series.>As of 2021, Edmonton had a city population of 1,010,899 and a metropolitan population of 1,418,118, making it the fifth-largest city[15][16] and sixth-largest metropolitan area (CMA) in CanadaYou are an absolute motherfucking retarded asshole if you honestly believe all 1,418,118 people in Edmonton are 1) hockey fans, 2) Edmonton Oiler hockey fans specifically, and 3) will forsake any and all other activities to watch (live) Game 1 of a playoff series for a team that has made the playoffs 5 straight years. This isn't the New York Jets making the playoffs for the first time in a decade.Edmonton has hosted exactly 1 event in AEW's 5 year history and WWE hasn't been there since 2022. If Dynamite doesn't draw, it's because AEW is ice cold, not because fans are watching ice hockey.
>>14567953nigga they blamed a snow storm in Texas for bad ratings. They will ALWAYS find an excuse lol
>>14567953Clueless
>>14567822please use credible news sources
>>14567824is this the same person who keeps saying this? even if slopdown did get canceled, usa is paying more money for it than fox did.aew doesn't have any news on tv deal extension. they could be out of business soon.
>wrestletalk>>14567907Yes they've literally been touring Canada for weeks.
LET'S GO OILERS
>Fenix comes back>Has one of the best matches of the year with Black Taurus>isn't on dynamite the week after
>>14568172Fenix tweaked something in that match and isn't cleared.
>Dynamite start time: 6PM local time>Dynamite length: 2 hours>Hockey start time: 9pm local timeThis is like the time Dave blamed poor attendance of a Dynamite PPV on a baseball game that started 6 hours prior.
>>14567822The cope gymnastics are spectacular KWAB
>>14567822The Young Bucks literally killed AEW.
>>14567998>is this the same person who keeps saying this?It's Hogwheels. If you imagine it being said in a retarded Irish accent, it's much funnier.
no society has to shutdiwn so we can max out views
>>14568216The hockey game starts at 8pm local you fucking dumb faggot
>>14567862At least it’s less people to see what they are doing. Subsequently that’s less to laugh at them too.
This cope is always fucking hilarious man. Sports fans do not watch wrestling regularly. They don't even watch it casually. They're completely separate consumer groups. Pro wrestling is not a fucking sport and Dave reaching with sporting events fucking with ratings or attendance will never not be pure cope.
>>14568216to be fair I think AEW shows last 9 hours or something wacky like that because of rampage, collision, ring of honor, and being the elite.
>>14568349>society has to shutdown so we can get that with 850k illyftfy
>>14568178Another AEW injury? So weird. NOT.Reset the counter.
Hasn't it been shown repeatedly that AEW fans do not consume any regular sports content?
>>14568349KWAB
>>14568500I watch AEW and regularly watch sports. I'm Canadian and if one of my teams was in a playoff game there is no chance in fuck I'm choosing wrestling. Especially if its like 3 hours of a shitty ROH taping.
>>14568356So AEW should work as a great lead in
>>14568533What do you mean?
>>14567822This is so sad.Dave thinks he's doing AEW a favor here, but all he does is making them look bad.
>>14567822First of all, the Oilers watch parties don't get 20,000 fucking fans. It's like maybe 3,000 tops in a courtyard with a big TV. Dave is legitimately retarded and talking about something that he has no clue about.
>theres going to be a packed arena watching the tv broadcast of a game on the jumbotron right next to the arena where 1.5k people are watching dynamiteKek
>>14568596They're outside not in another arena watching the game you massive fucking retard
>>14567822It's a pretty pispoor excuse that your fans would rather watch sportsball than your own product
>>14568941>you can't judge AEW's ratings and attendance for being shit, because there were other, more popular things happeningThis has been the AEW cope since day one
>>14567822
>"Traffic will be murderous unless you stay for the ROH tapings"Fuck you Meltzer, I ain't falling for your shit
>>14567953Dave specifically used the phrase "Stanley Cup" to make it seem like the NHL Finals, instead of just another playoff game. Dave is pure scum.
whoop those west coast pansy-ass canucks, Oilers
>>14567822>oilers are in the stanley cup against vancouverit's only the second round what a liar
Hockey is the only real sport I like and I can tell you Dave is full of shit. There aren't a lot of hockey fans, and the ones there are aren't trans. This won't effect AEW, they're just ice cold.
mcdavid will never win a stanley cup not built for the grind
>>14570617lucky for him based sid will drag that pussy kicking and screaming into a gold medal in 2026
>>14568941RAW has gotten preempted for a dog show in the past
>>14567822What is this cope that AEW fans are all huge sports fans? It's just not true. They're gay nerds.
I hope the Canucks beat McGayvid 8-1 again.
>>14570211OOOF this is embarrassing for AEW
>>14567822Holy Grimoli!
>>14567822HARDCAM SHOW
>>14571767>>14571822>>14571856all the same, fat, poor, retarded virgin faggot lol
>>14568332Kek what a smelly fat crippled potatonigger BITCH.
Does this show even air anymore? You never hear anything about it.
>>14570510I kinda dispise you guys who have to latch on and twist and pick at everything dave says to get a Win but... this time when I saw the OP image, and I don't follow hockey mind, when I saw it said stanley cup game between oilers and canucks I thought to myself, wow 2 canadian times in the finales? So I'll actually give you this one.
>>14571899stop replying to yourself and go lose weight, bitchtits
>>14567953Nobody on earth should take that fucking moron Smelltzer’s opinion seriously.
acknowledging facts isn't cope, why are trannies so fucking dumb
>>14567939Why? Because you're a fucking retard> it's not my fault they booked a show in canada during the championship game that apparently EVERYBODY watches.now read the last graph in the OP dumbshit
>>14571878Ya worked?
>>14567822kek AEW fucking sucks
>>14571929That’s what your mom says to you lmao.
>>14567822Oh yeah, this one got HogChariot upset lol.
>>14567822Does even AEW have enough tarps to cover 15,000 empty seats?
Edmonfag here,I'm not going to Trannymite because the card is miserable and there's maybe half the amount of stars on it that there were last time (tag team tournament was on last year, Groomega was the TV main event). And I'd call last year's card miserable too in its own way.Dave is a dumb fucking retard. Canadian cities don't SHUT DOWN for anything less than a winnable Cup final. A playoffs away game only matters to regular icefight marks. Amuses me though that AEW thought doubling ticket prices was a good idea too. They should be advertising seat fillies hard if they're going to desperately try to make things look nice for Rampage/ROH after a heatless starless card like this.
>>14567822the fucking state of AEW. no wonder it’s being cancelled all over the world.
>>14572066>Trannymite>GroomegaNigger, you do not leave the basement. Be serious.
>>14572066fucking this. IT'S A FUCKING AWAY GAME. this is cope of the highest order.
>schedules tour of Canada during stanley cup playoffs gotta love the business genius mind of one tonikan
>>14572066>"Edmontonian" disparaging hockeyGo back home Durpreet!
>>14572066>Groomegaare all edmonfags cretins like you
>>14572120Nah, they should:>>14572293>>14572082Ya froth, sukhdeeps?
>>14572066Fellow Edmonfag, meet me at Boyle street. I sell crack
>>14571878>if I put lol at the end, they won't know how fucking fuming I am
Entire thread is the literal definition of mental illness. Holy fuck.
>>14570510>>14570518Good catch, missed that part. Meltzer really is willing to be a total scumbag when it comes to running AEW defense.
>>14567852Stanley Cup finals haven't started, dipshit
>>14572066>Trannymite>GroomegaYeah man surely this guy is a REAL AEW FAN that would consider going to an AEW show!
>>14567840Both Owens and Zayn said that they never watched any sports.
