"@LastCallwChrisC @AnthonyJ2545 Tony started it with $100m that was an advance on his inheritance. I don't believe Shad has put any more money into it past that initial $100m so there is no reason for Shad to tell Tony that" @Switchblade97 on X 2025-07-23 02:40:39 UTC XXX followers, XX engagements

"@RyanWhitt44 @jimmyvan74 Lakers-Mavericks did 48k or less. I am just saying 30k to be safe and give myself wiggle room if the AEW numbers ever come out. No one watches sports on MAX. Thats not a knock on AEW. it's just a reality of the platform and people still accustomed to watching on TV than streaming" @Switchblade97 on X 2025-07-25 02:01:32 UTC XXX followers, XX engagements
"@TheSmiler023 You liar 😂 You were the one who said that I SAID they COULD make a profit this year.

"USA is not a stronger statio than TBS. Also WWE is not putting our first run live wrestling on A&E. They are putting out documentaries and reality show. TNA is already doing 135k-170k on AXS according to Carlos Silva. AXS averages 26000 and A&E averages 344k" @Switchblade97 on X 2025-07-23 11:46:46 UTC XXX followers, XXX engagements
"@TheSmiler023 You liar😂Show the whole conversation. You brought up me saying AEW doesn't make a profit. You brought it up referencing my April tweet that you now are running from.

"@SovietColonel Regardless it's always good to question the promoter but I'd say there is some public data available to give credence to his claims.

"@AnthonyJ2545 it's a bit of a joke IMO. We all saw Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul.

"@Celtics_fan78 @cafc4ever1 My issue with this is that your timeline is wrong. Puck put out the 170m number before Dave or Sapp ever put out a number. I am not saying Puck are right. I am saying that you can't say it all came from Dave because it didn't. 185m came from Dave but 179m came first from Puck" @Switchblade97 on X 2025-07-22 21:24:47 UTC XXX followers, XX engagements

"Fulham are a mid table Premier League club with a squad of XX players vs a roster of 190+wrestlers The average Fulham salary is 2.74m ($3.54m).

"@SovietColonel Thats fine. I agree the promoter is the first person you question. What I will say is that the increase in google trends data lines up with his claims though.
