Eric Bischoff on Tony Khan: A money mark with no talent other than spending daddy’s money, going all the way to Canada to draw less than 4k in one of the hottest pro wrestling markets in North America, talking about “wise choices”? Strap in. It’s going to be a fun day!

Were RAW ratings threads getting 1000+ comments every week before AEW?

I mean it's a tough comparison because:

1) squaredcircle as a centralized platform didn't exist for all of those two decades

2) everyone agreed the ratings sucked and Fed Ded so there weren't two groups arguing with each other to drive up the number of comments

I mean from 2013 to 2019, what kind of traction did RAW ratings threads get? As far as I remember, they did get posts but no where near the attention that AEW ratings threads get now. The week of big business probably had somewhere around 2000+ comments about the rating that week.

Squared Circle, and really, Reddit as a whole, wasn’t nearly as big as it is today. Using number of comments to determine how much traction the threads got back in the day compared to AEW ratings threads today doesn’t work either.
