Hate to break it to you, but there's no active wrestler who is going to change the ratings nowadays. The era of casual fans in regards to the fandom of the 90s is long gone. The only person who was previously involved with wrestling that could do that is The Rock.

AJ came in when people thought NO ONE would know who he is, and got a huge pop at the rumble, would go on to be a fan favorite, and top 5 merch seller in short time.

So, while nothing is gonna improve ratings, they would make alot of money with these guys.

And you’re just proving my point how play fighting is at an all time low

If I dare quote myself, “the marks are now in the ring”, and now they are all that is left with the wrasslin business audience, 8 million a week to the current 2-3 million niche mark audience that is left

With all due respect and fairness....

The Marks have ALWAYS been in the ring.... I mean rock, austin, hhh, hbk had the gen before them they marked too, as with Hogan, Flair, Sting, as with Andre, Backland, and etc

Anyone thats been a wrestler will always say "I grew up watching so and so and I always wanted to be like them or do what they do"

What was the buy rate for All in? How much money did they make overall.

Props to them for getting that money. First PPV show in God knows how long that had a black world champion.

Haven't seen numbers reported yet, but all the merch sold out before the show started, and they did 450K in ticket sales.

There's a part of me that wants to see Kenny Omega and Pentagon in WWE, but that's just cause it would be cool to see them in the Royal Rumble or going up against guys like Styles, Rollins, Strowman etc. on a big stage.

The reality is they would quickly just become part of the bloated machine's go-nowhere TV shows. A huge waste.


So on the flipside, I look forward to seeing what the success of All In leads to.

:wow:da King is #allfacts

But yeah absolutely spot on....if Kenny Omega did a surprise run in on raw tomorrow and laid out Roman Reigns....ratings would still be the same the following Monday....only people who would care are marks who watching already....these Indy clowns feeling themselves way more than they should

They sold 10,000 to this in a half hour, and sold out MSG with NO real television. TNA had Spike and guys every "casual fan" knew and couldnt draw a fraction. Learn a new talking point suitable for 2018

How much did WWE/WCW make off television in 1998 vs what WWE makes off television in 2018? The only thing real is the dollars, mark.

They don't even give Cena and Reigns creative control.Omega ain't just another WWE mark who will run into Vince's arms the moment he get's the call. For all the talk of Kenny needs to main event Mania to complete his legacy, we know as long as Cokeboy is breathing the show will be built around Roman

It's all smarks....do you really think a typical average Joe was like "oh look Cody rhodes vs some guy i never heard of is going to be in town I should drop $60 for tickets"....selling 10,000 tix to smarks is like bragging about selling 10,000 tix of a roller derby event to roller derby fans

All of this is irrelevant. A sale is a sale.. So people whom are buying WWE tickets are more of the "cool crowd?" I been to many of those WWE events and those same type of smarks the coli love to clown are there too. Smarks control the business now

Average Joe probably aint buying them tickets either:lolbron:

Average Joe - "Awe man, I love Hulk Hogan, Rick Flair, Stone Cold and The Rock!!:krs: Would be great to see them again!!!:gladbron: Brock Lesners is cool, he fights in UFC too right?"


**he looks at roster for show in their hometown**

Average Joe - "Who the fukk is Braun Strowman and Roman Reigns?:scust: And where is John Cena and Undertaker??:what: I'm not paying $60 to see some guys called the B-Team take on some lesser unknown blands called Revival? or Dean Ambrose vs Jinder Mahal":picard::camby:
