I agree he shouldn't have made this Tweet, mainly because idk why he's even upset about this. There was zero chance they were going to win, and if NXT had to move to Wednesday they likely suffer the same ratings issue, because moving days from your main day KILLS your numbers
They still did really well against an absolutely stacked card. You don't need to punch down, because at this point that's what you're doing. The shots at Vince and such worked imo, I get he's just trying to be cheeky and in a way I think this IS him admitting defeat (Two great ratings streaks ended is supposed to mean AEW winning and NXT losing, but he turns it into Taker/Cena under a million as a joke), but you don't need to carry it on really any further
Everyone had fun, it was a great night of wrestling, don't be ashamed of the number, and moreover, don't give the trolls waiting to see your company die every single hour of the day any more ammo.

Locker room sources have said that he should "log off" and "go take a bath or something" Imagine the Viking Raiders telling their AEW friends to tell TK to take a bath. That's how the wrestlers feel about it.

How do people actually like this guy? I’ve never got it.

As a guy with left frontal lobe encephalopathy I can say that mental health/seeing a therapist can be insanely beneficial.
I wouldn't doubt with as much stress as he has if he doesn't already see one.
None of these little things carry much weight as they happen but collectively they can make people start to question what is going on and cause people to start comparing him to the silly mistakes Dixie made that he tips toes around...In most of the cases here that is exactly what is going on.
No one here that I know of that regularly posts wants AEW to fail just for both (all really) companies to take things on the chin from time to time I believe

How do people actually like this guy? I’ve never got it. The guy brought legitimate change and difference to the wrestling world and outside of maybe being a bit annoying or stubborn as shown here, doesn't really give people a ton of reasons to despise him? Dude legitimately seems to care about wrestling, the wrestlers, and the fans. He's incredibly awkward and can get in his own head which can lead to dumb moments like so but idk, I don't really see why it's so hard to see why he has support?

I generally ignore most AEW stuff, but this dude always comes off like such a dork when he comes across a timeline or site as I scroll. I get a chuckle out of it, so there’s that. Lol

I don't understand how that many people watch WWE product over a real wrestling show Well, unfortunately, Control Your Narrative doesn’t have a TV deal.

Kind of want to see his tweets in the timeline where they won.

It's a dumb move by him, we're joking and making comments.
Like, this ain't like that AEW Women's Wrestling thread (that gets locked from time to time) or the Main Event Diversity Thread (where people are offended by the thread for some reason). We're clowning this dude for doing something lame that affects him and him only rather than everyone else. We ain't TK, we ain't his family, we just people who agree with the rest of his roster who thinks dude needs to delete his Twitter.
Ain't nothing wrong with that. We don't need to be in "hey guys we're 100% serious so talk shit until someone locks the thread" mode all the time. TK can get these jokes like everybody else.

I think that is another separation people don't like to talk about...It's okay to like AEW and not like Khan or the Elite...Wrestling is a grab bag after all...I grew up loving WWE and basically loath Vince except for his (sometimes) business acumen...I have never understood this notion that AEW must really be all in or nothing This is a debate for a different time though

Much like the CM Punk threads of yore, I really don't like speculating if Tony Khan needs mental health anything
It's really not for us to speculate about. If he gets therapy, or whatever else, good for him and that is his personal business. However, a dumb tweet here and there should not be the indicator of what he should seek mental health wise. The only barometer to dumb tweets should be "Dude just put the phone down and chill a bit"
Which is also why I don't like how "Khan Loses It" is in the OP, not really what I thought when I saw the tweet, at all.

People online are reacting like his tweet was worse than the Brawl Out or Hangman almost dying 1 year ago

Like, I like AEW, I watch it, follow it, am a fan of a good chunk of the talent there, I want it to only succeed and grow everyday it exists
Tony on the other hand, comes off like an insufferable bitch man child with every tweet he spills out, even when he’s on screen he comes off awkward and disinterested. Just stay behind the current and please stay off social media and just have you’re talent promote your shows and make “major announcements” and such

I’m shocked you fail to see any reasons people don’t like your messiah The original post said they couldn't see why anyone would like him, I said the reasons people do likely support him while also noting he has plenty of flaws, and you took that as I can't handle ANYONE not liking "my messiah". You wonder why people get defensive and absolutely fed up on this Board. I'm sick and tired of this directed bait to try and start arguments, and so are plenty of others.

How do people actually like this guy? I’ve never got it. I can forgive him being a money mark rich kid coz if he was a normal businessman AEW would have gone under during the pandemic and while the pillars among a few others would have ended up in WWE people like Kingston, OC and Shida never receive the opportunities they deserve (Cody is a lifelong midcarder in this timeline). He treats his employees well and most who have met him come away with positive impressions. Him making the biggest dorks of the IWC cry everyday is a bonus. He is thin skinned, dislikes women’s wrestling, doesn’t respect boss/employee boundaries (already backfired re Punk) and is still learning the ropes as a booker (4 years is nothing experience wise). Those are all annoying but not enough to sour me on the man as there’s never going to be a perfect owner. Others may disagree.

If you’re tweeting like Tony Khan or engaged in online conversation about his tweets, you’re online too much.

Yep exactly... Here is my thing and we all know I do not articulate well at all but the juxtaposition that he can be surrounded by so many alpha personalities both males and females in his day to day life with wrestling and both sets of football to always be this easily triggered and emotional is where some people get frustrated or annoyed. There are legit times when I feel bad for the guy because he generally does mean well when things are going good but he meant to be obtuse here and is being taken to task for it. Unfortunately AEW as an entity has both been propped up and slandered because of this man's constant passion and he shouldn't be the primary focus. Doesn't matter if it's Dixie Carter or Peter Molyneux for his promises none of these comparisons would take place if he wasn't so visible.
