    @mastermulcharmy @hbomax That’s not issue. I paid the 40 to watch the main show (confirmed with my bank that I paid) and I still don’t get access to the main broadcast

    @Converge241 @AEW Was just told it’s fine on YouTube so it must be an @hbomax issue?

    @JamesGunn @hbomax I cannot believe how bad you are at your job. Truly the worst studio head I’ve ever seen. You are trash.

    @hbomax I don’t mind commercials, gives me a chance to pee and get water to pee again later Can you figure out when to actually put in these commercials where it makes sense. Always at the worst time and the split ***** with the program.

    Apparently it is just HBO Max that’s messed up. It’s fine on YouTube and Twitter. Please fix it before the main card, @hbomax. #AEWAllIn

    "Daddy, are you OK?" Bud Clark's son watching on FaceTime while they're putting a boot on his broken ankle... That got me. @hbomax @NFLFilms

    @hbomax This is terrible. It is not the Lanterns story. Why not stick with the source material?????

  • KiliaXeno
    Xeno_KilIa 🇺🇸 (@KiliaXeno) reported

    @hbomax Episode 3 has confirmed for me that I am currently only watching this show for Kyle Chandler. Nobody else is likable on this show. Stewart's parents are terrible, Stewart himself is a dud. Aaron Pierre's doing his best but the writing they give to Stewart is awful so far.

  • Ebab117
    Eric (@Ebab117) reported

    @darq0n @hbomax Tom King himself said they made this show in a way to make the fans hate them. He succeeded. It’s so awful lol

    @hbomaxhelp The audio is bad on the AEW buy in for Aew All In. Can you fix it please? The audio on here and YouTube is fine.

  • Abundant2025
    Mae (@Abundant2025) reported

    @hbomax Why did you do Hal like this? Why? Why all the rascism? Why the white hate? Lanterns has awful writing. You should be better than this HBO.

    @hbomax @AEW @TonyKhan Can someone fix the audio issues on Max ASAP?!?!?!? Would be nice to be able to hear commentators for the PPV I bought 😡

  • JohnnyRedguy
    Ellis (@JohnnyRedguy) reported

    @JamesGunn @hbomax As in we have another story where a black man is being socially engineered since birth to work within a system that otherwise wouldn't think too much of him so he can do their ***** work without question and "know his place". How clever of you.

    @hbomaxhelp I did that and it didn't work it eventually fixed itself

    These @hbomax @AEW audio issues are giving me a headache during this #AEWAllIn Buy-In. I really hope this gets fixed soon.

  • Christlvr4eva
    ElishasBearFriend (@Christlvr4eva) reported

    @hbomax Wow this show is getting worse and worse and more woke. It literally complained that aliens from another planet didn’t give black people more sympathy because they have had it so hard. So narcissistic and just dumb. What does this have to do with superhero show? Awful.

  • DrewGsays
    Drew G. (@DrewGsays) reported

    @JamesGunn @hbomax @DCOfficial So far off on this statement! That was the WORST episode! WOW, I hope the rest are good but wow, that was horrible!

  • McBadbatMafia

    @AEW there is a major problem with your commentary audio on @hbomax fix it before the PPV starts or give us all a full refund

  • productofnoise
    proDUctofnoise (@productofnoise) reported

    @AEW @TonyKhan @hbomax It’s the entire audio on the HBO Max feed. Commentary team is horribly muted… Table audio feed and backstage feed sounds terrible too. Entrance music and crowd feed sounds decent… #ALLIN
