You have had a lot of storylines, feuds, and other balls to juggle on AEW TV shows as of late given that you have All In coming up in London this Sunday, followed a week later by All Out in Chicago. Why did you decide to do two big back-to-back pay-per-views? The business case is really based on the live events. And I believe the pay-per-view sales will also be strong. But frankly, when you’re selling millions of dollars of tickets across two shows, then you’re in a great position to cover your business base.
