| 0:00.0 | And that's yet another win for the team under this ambitious team principle. |
| 0:06.0 | Create history in F1 Manager 23 by leading your officially licensed Formula 1 team of choice to glory. |
| 0:13.0 | Or rewrite it with race replay, putting you the hot seat of the biggest incidents and challenges of the 2023 season. |
| 0:21.0 | F1 Manager 23, out now on PC, PlayStation and Xbox. |
| 0:31.0 | Do you have done this recently? I think you're crazy. |
| 0:35.0 | Oh, I don't want AEW to do very well at Wembley. Why are they trying to fill 90,000 seats? What a compliment it is. |
| 0:41.0 | That's right. If you do not want AEW or any wrestling company to be successful, I think you've gone totally crazy. |
| 0:48.0 | Also, they do not have to fill up 90,000 seats, even if they do 35 to 40,000. That would be absolutely amazing. |
| 0:57.0 | It's more into this as well, because I tell you AEW is on the verge of something special. Why? Here's why. |
| 1:08.0 | I mean, we have touched on it already, but yeah, the fact that Tony Khan sat down and was like, okay, |

| 1:38.0 | One, that's the biggest crowd all elite wrestling has ever had. Two, it's a great marker that they are going to move on to bigger things. |
| 1:44.0 | And three, it will get people who know nothing about a secondary wrestling company to pop their heads around the corner and go, wait a minute. |
| 1:51.0 | They've got how many people? Maybe I should keep an eye on this. |
| 1:54.0 | And that is the point. Don't worry about making money or setting records or anything like that. |
| 1:59.0 | The whole point of running Wembley is to try and grow bigger and bigger in Europe, where you can get better licensing deals, |
| 2:05.0 | where you can get a better TV deals, and where you can tell people, hey, oh, I hope silver, there's more than one wrestling promotion in town. |
| 2:12.0 | The way I don't think that anybody ever expects them to usurp WWE, because WWE is so big right now, my mum still says, oh, how's that WWE stuff going when she means pro wrestling? |
