Emma Hearst Helmsley wildin' out in contract negotiations

[Vinny Lupton]

2,000 isn't that bad of an amount for a one time booking

Normally I'd say she isn't gonna generate $2000 worth of ticket sales (and even then why aim to only break even), but this would actually be good publicity for Stardom to get the US people interested. They should put whatever show she was on on their streaming site for free or a free trial . Wouldn't pay her more than once tho

whats the going rate for a top indy guy like matt riddle?

definitely not 2k. I've seen him at shows with less than 200 people there and it's not like he was the only person they had to pay

How quickly we forget

I swear anything will get over in full sail

It's a very POOR indicator as to what will be over on the big stage.

Elias was just...a guy there. He's over as fukk now. Vaudevillians and lmao...Ascension were over..flounder on the big show. Authors of pain are fairly over, but trust they're gonna be a Big fukkin deal on raw.

Yes but I can't find it but there was a link listing how much Indy stars cost and nobody was over 7,000
Most Indy wrestlers are cheap that's why they wrestle so much on top of that 2,000 a show equals 50k if she does 25 shows

I feel that’s why the locker room hates Enzo so much cause he subscribes to the Nash “Money and Miles” philosophy. He treats this as a job and they’re mad they have nothing outside of the biz. A breh expounded on this in that Enzo thread

He literally spent his own $ to be at that Floyd Conor fight. He’s more like Flair than Nash

Elias always had major heat in NXT and actually was starting to be liked by the crowd just before his call up.

Only thing creative control would really even matter for in Stardom would be picking who she wanted to work with since they would put her over anyway. They just put Mandy Leon over Io recently so I doubt they'd be bothered by putting Emma over whoever

The price & ticket over isn't that bad, she's got the just left WWE bump & is trying to use it.

there was a former wwe ic champ who drew money and way more known then emma, was booked for a indy show here in vegas for $500 and literally put over a "mark". she wants 2K and creative control, that bytch crazy.

its sad that alot of these wrestlers can't hustle once they leave the business. shyt even the genius lanny poffo was doing stairmaster infomercials and cartoon voice overs

 

[ADK]

Wrestling industry is flabby in paying aspects. Underground rappers got it better.

 

[8WON6]

Nothing appealing about her as a wrestler outside of being mildly attractive. On top of that she evendoesn't realize it herself. She just a blond that can do some moves with zero character. LOL @ $2000/match. Can't even run with the "wwe screwed me gimmick" because every other wrestler that ever caught deavors has beaten that into the ground. She better go somewhere and develop a character and try to come back to WWE.

 

[jackswstd]

Creative control is gonna be a sticking point. She needs to drop that.

Who?

if it wasn't for emma, that ring rat bayley would steady be giving head to some nwa IC title holder

She was a rat?
