NBCU letting Smackdown go to open bidding

[Art Barr]

This is going to be like how Fox owns the movie rights to X-Men and Fantastic Four while Disney owns the Avengers

SmackDown going to Fox would not be a loss

That's why Fox execs went to SD earlier this year

It could be good or bad. If the network wants to prioritize SDL then creative will have no choice but to try to get ratings. If the network wants it as a filler show in a lazy time slot then creative will not try at all and it will get worse.

This is either been great for Smackdown, or crippling. Ideally, they could truly be run separately and truly feel different. WWE logic though has me thinking they'd sabotage it more than they have already done before. They'd do a Brand Split where SD's top 5 stars would be Big Cass, Borin Corbin, Sarah Logan, Mojo Rawley, and a Revival member.

History says otherwise but we'll see.

Don't get negged craccing jokes for daps
Crip up or grip up
SDL off of USA will give US more opportunities to be different than that snooze fest on Mondays

 

[Straw Hat Luffy]

I'm confused by this SD being on a different channel will make it worse logic.
Prime SD years with the big 6 when everyone favored SD over Raw was when they were on the UPN.

Sure quality might be trash if SD's it's on Ion or Syfy.

Like wasn't SD on SyFy back in the day there was no spilt brand?

 

[Dreamzeedream]

Ion TV here we come

they did have wwe main event tho

 

[dh86]

I take this to mean the price for SD has gone to the point where USA can afford only one

 

[Osmosis]

Would SD going to a competing network bring forth any change to the product? Or will it just be the same shyt on a different channel?

the product never changes regardless of circumstances

 

[Straw Hat Luffy]

shyt if I'm offering 500 mil I better be getting top quality

GAWD Chrisley pulling bo$$ moves on Tuesday nights again

Both of the shows have been weak so I'm not sure why people are still pushing this lame brand war.
