It's being taped tonight for Saturday air.

Didn't really see what's on his nameplate.

You and Meltzer should talk...only issue is he's on the bird app (although Bryan Alvarez is here).

@andy.wrestlejoy.com FYI...Meltzer is plugging the hell out of your Nielsen article.

I thought it was a great match.

Post on the AEW account here. Let them know what you feel.

Could someone from @allelitewrestling.com explain the AEW sign policy? Several fans had anti-ICE signs confiscated at last night's show, including one you aired on the show.

This is NOT the way to make fans feel welcome. It's bad enough we're subjected to ICE ads on Dynamite and Collision.

People can make choices. Enough people canceled House of Mouse apps, and Kimmel was brought back. Money talks.

At the very least, they can tell security to lay off signs. They need to be aware that their fans will go to VPNs and watch AEW+ and WBD will have NONE of their ads seen. PPVs can be purchased places beside HBOMAX.

Prepare to fast forward if you DVRd. ICE ads in some markets.

He knows that ICE is an issue with the fanbase, and his own talent. He can't evade it without making the issue worse. Same thing for the ICE ads on Dynamite and Collision. He's going to have to acknowledge WBD is making the call ,even if doesn't want to feel he's throwing them under the bus

It's largely because Florida stayed open during COVID.

The City owns the venue. But zero argument Khan needs to be asked about it on the WrestleDream pre-show call
bobmagee940.bsky.social
Not AEW's call as they aired it on TV, and another last week.

Khan aired the sign. He has zero issue with it. There's apparently been issues in Jacksonville before with fans. But Khan needs to tell them to back off, or he'll piss off the fanbase.
bobmagee940.bsky.social
Zero clue if he'll say a thing. But he'll see it.

FWIW, posted the following on
Tony Khan's X:

Can you please clarify the AEW policy on crowd signs? Several fans last night with signs about ICE, including one that said "ICE fears Hangman" (that was on air) were harassed by S.A.F.E., and made to give up their signs.

Fans need to feel welcome.

Then it's fair to ask Tony Khan about it directly on the bird app, or @allelitewrestling.com here.
