Here’s everything that will happen during the media call:
1. Softball questions from shitty bloggers that slather Tony’s balls before they even ask the questions.
2. Asinine claims from Tony about how great the spiraling shithole company is doing without any push back at all.
3. Zero introspection about how much of a failure AEW is and how pathetic it was to kick off the summer show in Texas with 13 dirty neckbeards being the only people that showed up.
