Yeah I don’t see myself keeping this for long. WWE watering down their brand once again just for the sake of money.

I'm legitimately outraged that I can't see Roddy Piper in blackface anymore. Vince referring to a black man as his nikka was really good shyt, too.

This is just a preview of Universal owning WWE in less than a decade.

It ain't bad I don't know what yall are on

I normally criticize wrestling fans for being whiney crybabies that don’t like nothing.
But in this case I’m with y’all.

fukk peacock as a staff , a record label and Mf publishing company.

The only thing that would make this deal a good thing is if universal has a hand in helping them produce their new original content. I felt like the WWE network dropped the ball on making the network feel necessary outside of PPV’s.

Maybe universal can produce some original shows using wwe likeness or something. But until that happens I’m on strike, I don’t even know if I will watch mania now

I’m transiting tomorrow. They got the Nitros, Raws, Thunders, Smackdowns and PPVs from the 90s and early 00s?

I should have taken back what I said no they have nothing besides ppvs from the 90s and only the shytty wcw ppvs no nitro or thunder and only recent raw and smackdowns

Yep. I don’t even use it anymore. They reduced the network to maybe 30% of its original content. I wish they allowed people to still use the original network in the US.

How they don't have Badd Blood '97

yea it can't be said enough that this move to NBC Peacock is absolutely awful for wrestling fans. they're going to water down the product so much.

reports show that WWE was making around $200 million per year from their 1.7 million paid subscribers on the Network, and they basically sold out to NBC for $250 million per year.

while on one hand you may think it's good that in the short gain you're immediately making another $50 million per year with the new NBC deal, but on the other hand is it really worth it? do you not have faith in your own Network that it will continue to hold it's own and maybe in another couple years it will generate that extra $50 million annually by itself? because it likely would ... The WWE Network has increased subscribers every year since 2014. sure, it will eventually cap out ... but to sell out for something relatively small (when compared to what it's already making on its own), tells a bigger picture IMO .....

wouldn't be surprised if this 4-year deal with NBC is just an introduction deal for WWE to eventually sell the entire company to them ... Vince is in his mid-70's now and he's gonna cash out.

They literally could've just raised the price and i'm sure wrestling fans would have willingly paid it

that's real talk.

fans used to pay $49.99 every single month for a PPV ... they easily could have bumped that $9.99 per month price up to $12.99 or even as high as $14.99 and it would still be a great deal.
