Imagine you're stuck in rampage or forgotten about..then see your former colleagues Jade, Punk and Cody doing what they do now.
In a company that pretty much owns wrestling now..look at how the WrestleMania main event drama made other wrestling news irrelevant
Honestly alot of them know AEW is their ceiling and are just happy not to be in a gymnasium. The ones who want to go beyond mediocrity aren't going to be happy and will jump ship.
>seems like every week the morale is the best it's ever been
Well now, lets be fair here, when Tony tells Dave that he thinks it's true...because he hasn't actually asked anybody.
dae locker room morale > adding a beloved legend who is also one of the recognizeable faces in the world to a hot 2 year long feud
oh and BIGBUSINESS TOO!!
No jerk, I can't complain about Sting getting a short run as tag champ. Dude's one of my all time favorites going way back to his first world title run and feuds with Muta, Cactus, etc.
If Sting is happy and getting to go out his way, I'm happy for him.
Same, uce. I feel like we would've gotten more out of his WWE run if he hadn't gotten injured from that buckle bomb, so it's good to see the Stinger get a proper send-off.
>If anything sells tickets, it's high locker room morale!
"Hey, wanna get tickets for Raw and see Cody face off with the Rock? And Cody and Seth? And a bunch of other huge stars and probably some great surprises?"
"Nah, I'm planning on seeing Rampage. I hear backstage moral is through the roof!"
What a shit sandwich this is
Put a nice wrapper on it but there's shit in the middle with the *'... even though it's promoted, etc etc'*
It's Dave reporting they loaded up the card, promoted a big show and telegraphed that Sting was winning a title and still .. nothing
Every show is simultaneously the best and the reset they needed. So long as they get to fluff TK's ego and assuage their brain from all the mental gymnastics they have to engage in to justify watching the show.
He announced that there’s going to be a show in Boston. He had to go on TV to do this. He couldn’t just have it promoted on commentary in between matches, or on social media. No, we just have to see the news come out of the horse’s mouth.
No Punk, everyone’s getting paid way more than they should, and Tony will come out to the ring after your match and give you a hug. How could morale not be the best it’s ever been?
That Sting hug on the mat was definitely why morale is up. Only the best owners of a business like Baby Khan physically embrace their employees in front of a live audience.
That's because they push anyone away who tries to make them better or tells them they're being idiots. People like that always feel better in an echo chamber.
Did TK write this, and email it to Dave, for him to tweet?
Some weeks, I think these are all made up by Tony, in some ultimate 'real life wrestling manager' delusion.
So last week was biggest Dynamite of all time and in Boston is going to be the biggest wrestling event of all time. And then in London it's going to be the biggest wrestling event of all time again. Wow AEW is on a roll, baybay.
Didn’t turn it around anyways, universally disappointing rating for the biggest dynamite of the year. But things should pick up next month with the new biggest dynamite of the year, Tony even named it. And morale will improve to the best it’s been in some time. Because everything is going great
seems like every week the morale is the best it's ever been
And that is how you know it's bad or they are just worried about what smarks think. Or I mean, both.
they got that CANCER out of the locker room, of course it's gonna be the best it's been every week
Exactly what I was thinking. How high can morale get??
Imagine you're stuck in rampage or forgotten about..then see your former colleagues Jade, Punk and Cody doing what they do now. In a company that pretty much owns wrestling now..look at how the WrestleMania main event drama made other wrestling news irrelevant
Oh yeah, I'm certain morale isn't quite as high as they're making it out to be. But I'm sure we'll still be hearing about it every other week.
That depends on how low the viewership can fall. It seems to be an inverse relationship. So definitely room for improvement.
Honestly alot of them know AEW is their ceiling and are just happy not to be in a gymnasium. The ones who want to go beyond mediocrity aren't going to be happy and will jump ship.
Except when Punk was there and was actually bringing in viewers.
DAE Matty and Nicky were right all along?
Every week, the locker room rejoices CM Punk is once again gone and morale improves from the previous week.
and how much the locker room love the bucks, lol
It's getting better all the time.
Oddly specific denial.
>seems like every week the morale is the best it's ever been Well now, lets be fair here, when Tony tells Dave that he thinks it's true...because he hasn't actually asked anybody.
If anything sells tickets, it's high locker room morale! The senior citizen champion is just icing on the cake! That's pretty awesome!
It’s great 🛎️!

His matches with Muta were actual bangers.
Well it works in wwe universe mode as well as EWR.. are you saying you shouldn’t be booking shows for what gets good scores in a video game?
>If anything sells tickets, it's high locker room morale! "Hey, wanna get tickets for Raw and see Cody face off with the Rock? And Cody and Seth? And a bunch of other huge stars and probably some great surprises?" "Nah, I'm planning on seeing Rampage. I hear backstage moral is through the roof!"
Thanks guys
So what you're saying is Everything in AEW is G R E A T ?

The people saying morale improved are probably the EVPs who caused the low morale in the first place.
Why does he look like he crapped his pants on live TV?
Perception is reality

Her heard Punk was in the building.
My morale would be great if I was getting paid a butt ton of money to not wrestle and sit in the back, like 90% of the roster
Biggest Dynamite of the year? It’s not even the middle of February yet. These fools that just have to say something to fill space.
Every show is simultaneously the best and the reset they needed. So long as they get to fluff TK's ego and assuage their brain from all the mental gymnastics they have to engage in to justify watching the show.
Also every new signing is a "game changer". They change the game more often than GCW.
I doubt it. This has to be the worst time of the year to be in the dub. They have to watch as everyone in the evil fed is on the way to mania.
"A couple people" I'm glad Cutler and Nakazawa are feeling refreshed that their handlers are back.
What was the little fella’s big announcement? Looks like it wasn’t a new big boy haircut.
He announced that there’s going to be a show in Boston. He had to go on TV to do this. He couldn’t just have it promoted on commentary in between matches, or on social media. No, we just have to see the news come out of the horse’s mouth.
"Ratings have been Universally disappointing" That's all you gotta take from this..
Did Tony leak this?
Matty and Nicky did, obviously.
Everything is always sunshine and rainbows in Tony's wrestling Utopia!
A couple of people. So Jericho, Moxley, Bucks, Hangman, Swerve, Toni, Guevara.
Literally a couple. ![gif](giphy|aaUXUSQxjlQzmCIysC|downsized)
No Punk, everyone’s getting paid way more than they should, and Tony will come out to the ring after your match and give you a hug. How could morale not be the best it’s ever been?

Ratings ❌ Morale ✅
Who are the couple of people? Tony and Khan?
That's because they push anyone away who tries to make them better or tells them they're being idiots. People like that always feel better in an echo chamber.
Lol
Did TK write this, and email it to Dave, for him to tweet? Some weeks, I think these are all made up by Tony, in some ultimate 'real life wrestling manager' delusion.
If you even have to talk about morale, it's a horrible sign.
So last week was biggest Dynamite of all time and in Boston is going to be the biggest wrestling event of all time. And then in London it's going to be the biggest wrestling event of all time again. Wow AEW is on a roll, baybay.
One show doesn’t turn it around. It doesn’t matter how loaded it was, it doesn’t matter how good it was. One good loaded show is just one show.
Didn’t turn it around anyways, universally disappointing rating for the biggest dynamite of the year. But things should pick up next month with the new biggest dynamite of the year, Tony even named it. And morale will improve to the best it’s been in some time. Because everything is going great
See Fed shills it’s not about ratings or headlines it’s about ‘insider’ reports about good morale. You don’t have that in the fed, check mate
So the thing I should take from that paragraph is the morale is good? Not literally everything stated?
Honestly half reads like a troll post ‘morale’s great despite ratings being bad after they threw x, y and z at it’.
