So we all agree that Julia Hart vs. The Bunny should be the Double or Nothing main event.

Omega (as a singles guy) and Moxley in the ME. Not a surprise there.

I love how sometimes a segment that's like 50% The Elite and 50% Tim The Hobo vs. Dougie Jobz will lose 30k viewers and a few people will go "SEE? SEE? THE ELITE AREN'T DRAWS! AHA! AHA!" because then this week's chart is just. So blatantly on its face a good sign that yes, Moxley vs. Kenny was a big match and a big ratings deal people wanted to watch. Which shouldn't need to be restated probably? But. "The Elite aren't draws" is one of my favorite bad faith wresting takes. Because it is so laughable. Especially considering the company is named All ELITE Wrestling. The fact the company was formed in the first place on the Elite name is proof in of itself that the Elite are draws. But when you are dealing with people who suffer from Elite Derangement Syndrome, you can't make them see the light. |

There been a lot of segments That they where in that was the lowest segment of the show in ratings. I do think its more the Bucks than it is Omega. There was that trend that was seen during the best of seven on a lot of the weeks. From what I can see, its more on the Bucks than Omega though. |

in terms of actual ratings poison I don't know of any consistent ones in AEW... I remember the joke for awhile in NXT was that Timothy Thatcher was ratings poison because numbers cratered in his segments (except if I remember the female demos went up)
