The Unified/International/Continental lineage thing confuses me. So, the Unified title unified both the International and Continental titles, but it's its own thing and its own lineage, but it also is supposed to be continuing the lineage of the other two belts, I can't make heads or tails on how it works. Can you explain to me if you know how it works, please? Thank you, and thank you for doing what you do.
The All-Atlantic Title became the International Title.
The Continental Title was decided through the Continental Classic, under that tourney's rules.
The Continental and International Title were unified, and because the person holding the Continental Title won, that rule set carried over.
I know Tony Khan is adamant about keeping ticket prices affordable for us sickos and I’m glad for that. Is he able to turn a profit with gates most weeks? I’m going to a Dynamite in Tulsa at the BOK Center in January and I imagine it costs a pretty penny to use.
He doesn't need to turn a profit with the gates. He has a nine figure annual television deal. The gate is supplemental to that. It's a television property before a live events business. If you can do both, that is certainly preferable. They'd definitely much rather be doing 8-10k for weekly TV. As far as profit, they're a profitable company as is, and I think that having a more intimate, hotter TV crowd as opposed to large, dark, cavernous arenas.
What's the choreography process for WarGames like? Do the talents do a walk through all together?
Well, fortunately for you, I did a full feature on it from an NXT perspective in 2021! It varies from company to company, but usually you think of some spots leading up to it, and then the day before or day of you have a run through. They're typically very careful and particular with these because of so many moving parts.

I was talking about how the Unified belt unified the two titles, and yet both of those titles are still continuing when that's usually not how unifying championships work. I'm sorry, but this doesn't answer my question.

I honestly don't get why people find the Unified Title confusing
