We gotta face it, apart from Easy there haven't been any others that really broke through to the point they're popular enough to sell a main card.

Both RBE and URL are kinda forced to book the same ol vets cause they have no other choice. 2023 been ass overall.

75 bucks for an RBE event is ludicrous tho lol.
ARP said it’s a small room event that holds about 350-400 ppl.

He’s paying 20 battlers including the likes of Hitman, Verb, Bigg K etc.

• The location
• production crew.
• post-production.

But somehow $65-$75 is “too much.”

Sorry but not sorry. Matchup with Showoff would’ve been lackluster anyway

Geechi can move tickets with the right matchup, which would probably be one of the same Ol vets who are already established

That's on ARP tho, if he wants to hold a small room event with 20 high cost battlers and still have a decent ROI, I wish him all the success. That doesn't mean that 75 bucks for a PPV is not a lot and some of us are not willing to spend that on hitman vs ill will and award vs Verb :manny:

Mook couldn’t 1 mill off url, does that mean he’s not top tier? :patrice: K and Ill will are card headliners on big cards and both have arguably beat god tiers battlers. They are top tier.

Nygga, the consensus is bigg k best Mook and it did not change his status. It didn’t change shyt.

These guys are the b side on their own league.

is there any battle/group of battles right now that would work?

because in my opinion it's kinda dry out there even for URL doing a Summer Madness

For RBE? It doesn’t really matter what I think. As long people like the matchups, which appears to be the general consensus, it shouldn’t matter what I think.

If you want to see a white Christian, who is probably racist, try to sound like a black man for three rounds, that may be your thing. It’s just that I’m not into it.

Battlers must give ARP discounts compared to what they ask from Smack. Or RBE got some serious sponsors.
Especially being in the small Blue Room. The economics just don't make sense to me. Unless PPV revenue is much higher than I think it is.

I think it's the latter. Verb mentioned something about ARP giving him some gems on sponsors and stuff. Plus from the way Chris Unbias talks, ARP's regular job makes a lot of money.
