At this point? Not really. It's the day after a show, there is no way to say if this level if interest will be maintained once they have TV, or if it'll rapidly settle back to the level ROH and New Japan talk has.

The mods allow AEW posts outside the event focused threads so it's not really a big deal.
I can't blame them, the TNA forum was a ghost town for the final few years.

No. It’s easy to have a lot of traffic after the big event but how will shit go when it’s dead air

Gotta match the hustle and bustle of the WWE Network section?

I'd say it's too early, let's see how the weekly shows go first.

If their weekly TV only gets like 400k, then no, they won’t deserve one.

Most of Wrest is AEW threads at this point. Not even one page's worth yet. No, AEW will not be getting its own forum for a long time. It won't even be considered until the TV show is up and running. Judging things by one PPV's worth of threads isn't going to win it; in two weeks, it won't be as noticeable. Just curious: Why is it such a big thing to give a company it's own section? I've run a ProBoards forum before, and as of then (admittedly been quite some time ago) it wasn't like you had to pay for extra sections or anything, and they took a couple minutes to create. Not trying to be douchey, just wondering why such a big deal is made of it.

None of the non-WWE stuff can stand on its own in that regard at this moment

We want knee jerk reactions and we want them NOW. Good day sir

Good day sir Most people were pretty polite about this and were able to discuss with no bad reactions. And that bothered me...figured I needed to be the irrationally angry person amid this sea of respect and thoughtful discussion. I fear the day the internet is filled with thoughtful dialogue. Not going to happen on my watch bud. Not today. I want thoughtless and irrational decisions and I want them NOW. (Seriously, major props to everyone on here and the mods. Don’t see rational discussion like this on many message boards)

We want knee jerk reactions and we want them NOW. Good day sir While some have been, I don't consider CM's post such; he had a good question. There's nothing physically or financially restraining us from creating more boards on here, so why not? Personally? I would love to have individual boards devoted to more promotions. I'd love to get to the point where we feel the need to have one for AEW, NJPW, ROH, even Impact if they can get back on their feet. Would love to have them. Would love to. But I'm more focused on presenting an active community and not thinning us out too much. That's all. And hey, all you fans of ROH? TNA diehards? Old farts who just like talking about the '80s? Please don't feel left out or see this as an invasion of the board. Let's get some conversations on those topics going too.

Imo I think that section should just be replaced with an AEW board

Imo I think that section should just be replaced with an AEW board Different reason that exists, those dedicated threads are more likely to get lost in the WWE section lest we pin a whole bunch of them to the WWE board so they don't fall, and no one wants to deal with that clutter.

Also I apologize is this as a dumb question but is it possible to have a WWE netwrok subsection inside the WWE section a sub-sub section of you will lol. Don't know how proboards works and if that'd even be a good idea or not

Don't know how proboards works and if that'd even be a good idea or not We could and considered doing that when the Network board was first spitballed but it was kinda unsightly in practice and we figured most people wouldn't notice it and it'd get lost in the sauce.

As of now I kinda prefer this condensed version. Particularly because I’m still not familiar with every AEW member and so many have feet in different promotions I’m unaware of.
