AEW reportedly missed out on a key piece of mainstream media exposure when they were making their West Coast Dynamite debut with the recent show from The Kia Forum in Los Angeles, which was the post-Double Or Nothing episode. A new report from The Wrestling Observer notes that The Los Angeles Times wanted to do a story on AEW but the company never got back to them. This is an issue for a company like AEW because they are not in the position to not work with media at that level. Discovery are based in Los Angeles, and while the value of the local newspaper is small compared to the past, The LA Times is still one of the most prestigious papers in the United States. There’s no word yet on why AEW failed to get back with The LA Times.
