JNPO: AEW Q4 investors call with Wrestlenomics’ Brandon Thurston
AEW
Josh Nason’s Punch-Out returns with another AEW investors call episode, focusing on the fourth quarter of AEW business in 2023.
As always, Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics returns to lend his thoughts, numbers, and an exclusive PDF for Wrestlenomics subscribers of some the numbers we discuss.
If you’re new, here’s the inspiration:
Roughly a month after every financial quarter ends, publicly traded companies like TKO (aka WWE & UFC) hold a quarterly call for investors and analysts where they announce how they did financially along with specific numbers.
I had the idea that as viewers and media, we spend a lot of time investing thoughts and words about wrestling’s top challenger brand to WWE so why not do something similar with the information we have available to us?
On this episode, Brandon and I use perspective to talk about:
- AEW’s first quarter to feature three PPVs
- The year-over-year declines in viewership
- Thoughts and discussion about AEW’s ticket sales issues
- All In 2 tickets go on sale
- The PR disaster that was Tony Khan’s post-Worlds End response to the Chris Jericho situation
- Quotable quotes, notable signings & departures, a forecast of things we’re interested in, and more.
