Time for the wrestlers to unionize. Get paid too instead of being "independent contractors".

According to that article you linked, they'll have a studio show on FS1 too.

It will probably be something like RAW / Smackdown Talk. it will be aired either before or after. thats what i am guessing. plus they will need many avenues to advertise XFL

It would be shooting themselves in the foot to do this. These TV deals are great, but they’re going to need life beyond them, when broadcast and cable is dead, and that’s what the network is largely an eye towards.

... though if the McMahons do intend to sell, then the short term money grab makes more sense.

Well the way I see it breh, Universal/NBC will probably make their own Network in the future. So its like, do we need WWE Network for PPVs?

It can be around for Archive/History, but its an interesting future for sure.

 

[El Cocodrilo]

I don't get why these networks see WWE as a live sport.

It's just the last thing on their network where they can still make money off advertisers, so they're holding on to that shyt for dear life.

This is the end of an era though, my little kid brother doesn't give a single fukk about what's on TV/cable. The future generation is just gonna stream whatever they want at all times.

If they were smart they’d capitalize on this and make that move

Raw has Reigns, Lashley, Brock, and Stroman. All guys that could walk through an airport right now and have people looking at them and wondering what they do for a living and had they seen them before.
