There was no reason for this to be promoted as an \u201cimportant announcement\u201d or even promoted at all. Had Khan made the announcement on Dynamite this week with no buildup, I believe it would&#8217;ve been much better received. There must be a moratorium on these &#8220;important\/huge\/major announcements&#8221; on AEW TV and pay-per-view going forward unless they get move their pay-per-view events to the Max streaming service. When AEW gets its new TV deal, that shouldn\u2019t be promoted ahead of time on AEW television either. There\u2019s no problem with these type of announcements being on Dynamite, but they don\u2019t need to be promoted ahead of time. You will never see WWE do something of this ilk. If a TV deal is signed and nights will be changing, then you absolutely need to make a big deal of it, but there\u2019s no need to push this as a major doing ahead of time. There\u2019s something to be said about going back to the well too many times, and this one has run dry for Tony Khan.<\/p>\n<p>-On a much more positive note, Tony Khan has made some changes recently that are for the better and will help to improve the product if they continue to build on this. First, we have a basic outline of what Full Gear will look like a little over two weeks out and they\u2019ve been building these stories and to the matches fairly well. We haven\u2019t run into a situation where it\u2019s \u201cgo home\u201d week and we have only one match booked for the show. At this point we have a World Title match, an Women\u2019s Title match, an International Title match, a grudge match, a fun six-man match, and (sigh) an ROH Tag Title match. Say what you will about the superfluous ROH match, but at least stories are being told and these matches are being built to in a meaningful matter weeks leading into the show.<\/p>\n<p>A few months back, I noted that AEW is trending towards 10-12 PPVs per year. With this happening, building the stories and feuds this way is a must. You have to be encouraged with how AEW has built towards this show so far. A few other things that happened this week were the addition of the recap video package at the top of Dynamite, and the lack of Excalibur speed reading while promoting future matches at the end of Dynamite. The recap video was a great touch and should be used going forward.<\/p>\n<p>-I have missed the old Saturday Night Main Event style interviews at the star of Collision. It gave the show a unique feel and start. I can forgive them on this if they add the recap to the top of Collision though.<\/p>\n<p><b><u>WWE<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p>-Let&#8217;s revisit something briefly that I touched on months back in my first Dot Net column. Do we still think Roman Reigns needed to win at WrestleMania to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship? Would any of these stories he\u2019s been rolled into been any less meaningful without that title? Do you not think Cody Rhodes could\u2019ve been booked similarly in feuds with Brock Lesnar and others since WrestleMania had he won the title? Would WWE have really needed to introduce a second world title had they put Rhodes over Reigns at WrestleMania?<\/p>\n<p>If you can\u2019t tell by my questioning, I continue to feel that the wrong decision was made at WrestleMania. The Roman Reigns record breaking run is as hollow as it gets. Reigns will be defending his title in a televised match for only the second time since WrestleMania this weekend at Crown Jewel (not counting the three random house shows he\u2019s worked). That kind of defense schedule would make Brock Lesnar blush. I hate to even be thinking this, let alone typing it, but I hope this will lead towards another reunification in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>One world title in WWE with strong mid-card titles worked well in 2022 and it felt like the best route. Since WWE has added a secondary world title, the U.S. and Intercontinental Titles don\u2019t feel as prominent as they did at this time last year. Don\u2019t get me wrong, Gunther has done a very good job as the Intercontinental Champion. He\u2019s carrying that title with a lot of gravitas. I can\u2019t say the same for the U.S. Title. It doesn\u2019t feel nearly as important as it did when there was only one world title. Pro wrestling has too many titles as it is. AEW\/ROH is the main perpetrator in this instance, but WWE can\u2019t go unchecked when it comes to this as well.<\/p><div id=\"prowr-1002763901\" class=\"prowr-content-4 prowr-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: prowrestling_incontent_2 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"prowrestling_incontent_2\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\", slotId: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>-I\u2019m surprised that we haven\u2019t heard where Raw and NXT are going to land in the Fall of \u201924 at this point. The silence on this is actually quite deafening. I have no knowledge of anything inside, but I&#8217;ll guess that Raw ends up somewhere else other than NBCU. That opens up the possibility that they end up with Disney (ESPN networks, ABC, FX), Amazon, Netflix, or even WBD (TBS, TNT, TruTV). I honestly don\u2019t believe that Raw ends up at WBD. However, the Disney prospects are fun to think about. If that were to happen, I\u2019d almost certainly bet that Raw moves to another night as to not consistently go up against Monday Night Football, regardless of the Disney network they end up on.<\/p>\n<p>Disney bought out the rest of Hulu from NBCU\/Comcast this week. It was reported by Brandon Thurston of <a href=\"https:\/\/wrestlenomics.com\/\">Wrestlenomics.com<\/a> that the expiration tags for all WWE properties that air on Hulu disappeared yesterday after the sale was announced. Take that for what it\u2019s worth and make what you will of that. I\u2019d have to imagine that WWE will want to keep Raw on \u201cregular&#8221; TV and that Disney would be the front runner. I suppose CBS&#8217;s Paramount Network could also be an option. I still doubt that NBCU will retain the rights to Raw after grabbing Smackdown but anything is possible.<\/p>\n<p>NXT is a bit more interesting. I could definitely see it going the way of the streaming despite that fact that they\u2019ve really pushed the past 3-4 months to bolster their TV viewership. That could mean Amazon or Netflix. It could also mean it ends back up on the WWE Network with Peacock; only this time, they\u2019d get a rights fee for it rather than just airing it on their own network.<\/p>\n<p>These dominos waiting to fall would also affect AEW. If Raw (or even Smackdown for that matter) were to move to Wednesday next fall, I\u2019d imagine AEW wouldn\u2019t want to run head-to-head with either program. Tony Khan has said that he doesn\u2019t wanna compete with the NFL. But a lot of wrestling fans are creatures of habit. Assuming AEW renews with WBD, they would be crazy not to take a hard look at Monday night if there\u2019s an opening there. The night of the week that AEW airs its programming isn\u2019t necessarily up to Khan. So, he might not have a choice.<\/p>\n<p>The NBA rights deal is also coming up and where those fall could also directly affect where WWE and AEW air next fall. One year from now, the whole pro wrestling television landscape could be turned on its head completely. It\u2019s exciting and I\u2019m here for it.<\/p>\n<p><b><u>Other Promotions<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p>-I know most have already gotten this out of their system, but I\u2019m gonna echo it here. Who was calling for Impact Wrestling to go back to the TNA name? I just don\u2019t get it. I, honestly, can say I\u2019m not even anti-rebrand when it comes to this company, but why the dreaded TNA acronym? Nostalgia is one thing, this awful name for a company (any company that\u2019d like this acronym) just makes no sense and I can\u2019t see how it\u2019s gonna make more money (see what I did there?). Impact\/TNA\u2019s parent company, Anthem, also owns the GFW name. I know it was very short lived but why not run that name back out?<\/p>\n<p>Global Force Wrestling didn\u2019t take the world by storm in the limited time that it was a thing, but it\u2019s not an awful acronym and TNA doesn\u2019t have nearly have the warm and fuzzy feelings that I believe Scott D\u2019Amore thinks it does. All that aside, I think Impact\/TNA has done a great job the past 18 months or so putting on solidly booked shows with good wrestling. I don\u2019t know that they\u2019ll ever break out as a promotion at this point regardless of what the company is called but it\u2019s very solid product that\u2019s easy to watch. Having said that, any other name is still better than talking to someone that doesn\u2019t have a clue and saying \u201cI\u2019m gonna go home and watch some TNA.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div
