In case you didn’t know…
AEW announced that the first live TNT show will take place on October 02, 2019 at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. While it’s interesting that AEW would pick D.C. for the first show, it’s also bewildering that they didn’t go with Chicago where they presumably have a strong fan base.
The heart of the matter…
As part of the promotion for the first-ever AEW TV live event, Chad Dukes interviewed Cody Rhodes to discuss things such as the location, the sledgehammer shot at HHH and Cain Velasquez.
When Chad asked why they chose D.C. for the first live TV event, Cody Rhodes responded by saying that they’re able to track a lot of data and they’re following the data on it. He also said they have hired personnel who can help make these types of decisions. He elaborated further and said;
What’s next?
The data tracking argument makes sense as analytics is the basis for most businesses right now, including entertainment and sports. From a symbolic point-of-view, setting it in the nation’s capital is also keeping in line with the historic nature of AEW having their first-ever live TV show. Things are going to get interesting once October 02 comes around.
