@DrainBamager 73k is a fantastic number, which makes it even more stupid that they kept pushing the 81k and trying to change the meaning of the word attendance.
He caused the mockery
@LNGVerse Wrestling fans are weird. As soon as she reached her (current) peak, she was apparently supposed to start putting everyone over. That’s not how stars are made.
@WrestlingNewsCo My only criticism of the Network was you couldn’t go through shows in order easily. If you wanted to rewatch a period, you were constantly having to search and scroll between Raw/Smackdown/PPV which took a lifetime
@BrandonThurston Journalists can ask any question they like, and they absolutely should. But Levesque isn’t the person to ask. He is in charge of writing television. Ari Emanuel, Mark Shapiro and Nick Khan are executives responsible for running the business and they are who to ask
@stephaniemchase The most interesting part of the doc is Ep 5 and first half of 6 because it’s focused on the weird and pretty unhinged family relationship of the McMahons. I got quite emotional when Shane got the pat on the back and the validation from his dad he’d always wanted to hear.
@Fightful Nothing new is learned, the bit everyone wants to see is just full of info we already knew. The best part, unsurprisingly, is the family episode because the McMahons are so dysfunctional and weird as a group. Pretty poor series.
@Fightful Editorially poor documentary. 90% of it was a history of WWE with very little insight into Vince, feels like a WWE retrospective and not a dive into the mind of Vince at all. How can you almost completely gloss over his childhood?
From this doc, you’d believe McMahon purchased WWE, created Mania and everything was successful since then.
I’ve learned nothing about Vince that I didn’t already know, even any good bits.
@AIRGold_ I’d say if people are complaining about Collision, where the best wrestle apparently, going head to head with a talk show, they’re not any kind of competition at all 🤷🏼♀️
Triple H called them a pissant company when they were
Counter programming exists. Tony is in competition isn’t he? That’s what happens in competition 😂
NXT aired on Wednesday nights for five years before Dynamite
Threatened to buy them before their first show.
Calling them a pissant t-shirt company.
Counter-programed Fight for the Fallen (a charity event).
Moved NXT to Wednesdays to counter-program Dynamite.

Three things.
1) It’s finally an accurate comparison given that Pepsi has also lost market share in the last year
2) Pepsi is the drink bar staff have to ask if it’s ok to serve when people order Coke.
3) The dude just released somebody for getting injured in another company
Tony Khan has called WWE the “Harvey Weinstein of Pro Wrestling”.
“[AEW is] the most successful sports startup since the AFL. We are like the Pepsi of Pro Wrestling. We're up against a really Evil Juggernaut, WWE is our competitor, that's who we are facing.”
@Zeal980 @JDfromNY206@RedStormPro Nobody has actually been proven anything. You can say you believe the allegations, I have no problem believing Vince is capable of what he was accused of, but it hasn’t been proven
