AEW Dynamite made a pit stop in Loveland CO on June 5th. Since it isn't too far from where I live, I said to myself, "Self....wouldn't it be cool if you could get like a press pass/kit for the show so you can talk about happenings firsthand, interview some of the talent, etc. for this here little blog"
"What the heck!!! You know you miss 100% of the shots you don't take (right Tony Khan). Shoot off an email to them and see what happens."
Since I usually give sound advice to myself; that's what I did. I wrote them an email explaining I just started this blog and it would be really nice of them if they could assist by supplying me with a press pass so I can give personal insight to what happens, interview talent, etc. Nice way to get more eyes on my little fresh blog here.
I also explained that I do have a speech problem due a TBI from multiple car accidents. I asked that talent be patient with me and that my wife would be along to help translate. After 10 yrs, she can get the drift of what I am saying usually. I thanked them for their time and consideration, signed (well typed) ,y name and hit send.
After a few days, no answer. Retyped and sent. No answer. Typed another email after a few days and sent. Yep. No answer.
I understand that it was a long shot, but hey you never know until ask. They could have at sent an email saying We are sorry and they wouldn't be able to honor my request. Yada Yada Yada It's the polite thing to do. At least how I was raised.
When they are in the area in the future, I will give it another go. Maybe I will get a reply then.
