AEW Dark/Elevation update from Andrew Zarian

[Smart Marx]

Fork up some more money to televise my meaningless squashes with funny commentary if that's the case then (only applicable if the shows don't come back)

If I was Tony, do it on Rampage. The ratings are already not great. Don’t see it a risk.

No I want Rampage as well lol I wouldn't take the squash shows over Rampage, I just liked them as extra viewing. Reminded me of classic WWF Superstars or late era WCW Saturday Night

 

[Chris]

I think it may be also a way to get the whole library on MAX.

and dammit chris dont perpetuate the squash stereotype sometimes theres competitive matches (more so recently at least)

It varied week to week hut half the time the squashes were still my favorite part lol

 

[Chris]

Also its how I gatekeep the haters from trying to watch it and ruin our good vibes

[Comrade Khan]

usually I'm the one gatekeeping aggressively, maybe this is a better way lol

 

[Smart Marx]

The main thing I did like about Dark was seeing a name I hadn’t seen in a minute and just watching their match at my own pace.

And yeah, when I went to Full Gear, I joyed the squashes they taped for Dark.

 

[Chris]

I'm a firm believer we enjoyed the Hardy/Firm stuff so much more bc there wasn't a dirty bitch in our ear saying it was stupid bc it was mostly on Dark so they didn't know about it

 

[Comrade Khan]

dirty bitch lol

This is it for me really. Seeing someone that really isn't even in the midcard going over in a match. It's not really something that will happen in the reset of the shows. Really can't see them having a talent in the position they are in say like Serpentico going over anywhere except Dark.

I’m not sure about the angle, but I did like the 911 ECW chokeslam segment.

So do they continue the W/L records if the Dark shows don't exist anymore to pad out the records of people who are good but still lose on TV?

they havent used the WL records in like 6 months +

 

[Chris]

they havent used the WL records in like 6 months +

I think they're still tracked on the website tbf and I imagine they still will be but since they did away with the rankings they've had next to no mention on TV yeah

yeah I mean they keep track of W L , as they should, but they only mention it when it suits them.

Still think Sky needs to watch the show more instead of repeating cynical reddit takes
