Gable has long deserved a big career defining moment like this, even in defeat this was incredible. Glad WWE stuck to the traditional unmasking post match promo/info.
If this was 2010s he would be a multi time intercontinental champion but no now we need 100+ day midcard title reigns or the are seen as "underwhelming"
WWE has conditioned their audience to pay roughly $10 a month for a streaming service/catalog. It’s presumptuous that they expect to retain those numbers with a triple increase in price in a pseudo pay per view model. It also alienates the “casual” fan they are trying to attract.
Nick Khan is confident people who subscribed to Peacock for WWE ‘PLEs’ will follow the product to be subscribers of ESPN to continue watching their ‘PLEs.’
“Will the subs follow the product to whatever that new platform is? I think we've demonstrated to Peacock, our subs will follow, they certainly all followed from the WWE Network, and that expanded that subscribership extensively with Peacock. And there's obviously other product at Peacock to watch, which our fans who subscribe primarily for us were able to sample. Same will be the case with ESPN.”
