This post got more views and interests Than WWE performing at “Rolling Loud” lol

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

What part of what I said indicates anything about anybody currently being popular to the masses? I used Naomi going viral when people discovered her existence as an example of the potential popularity certain people could gain if WWE marketed them correctly. Somehow that results in “nobody knows or cares about them!!! They aren’t popular outside of wrestling!!!” responses when I literally never said otherwise.

Point is, if WWE paid the shade room to promote Bianca, Sasha, or Naomi, they would tap into a completely new market of fans because while they are currently unknown outside of wrestling.. they posses the talent and stand out enough to attract non-fans under the right circumstances.

You're still making the mistake of assuming that just because someone likes a post on social media or views it that automatically means that said people will consume your product. WWE can pay the shade room all they want to promote those women, but it doesn't mean that those likes will actually translate into new viewership.

Case in point..... WWE having 11.5 million followers on Twitter and 24.6 million followers on Instagram, yet they can't even get Raw to crack 2 million viewers each week now.

Stopped being fooled by social media numbers and popularity. Wrestling just isn't popular in the mainstream press as much as you'd like to think. That's exactly why Vince hasn't been cancelled because no one actually cares about wrestling compared to other major sports out here.

Breh this thread is literally about social media numbers and likes OP is trying to make a point that they need old clips to generate those numbers on a shade room IG post and my point is they can generate the same shyt on that platform if they woulda posted Naomi’s royal rumble return or Sasha/Biancas stare down at WM

But on the topic of ratings, a big part in why the ratings routinely decline aside from the obvious factor of the overall product being garbage, is because they purposely only allow their stars to become but so big so that they don’t become bigger than the company itself like the rock

No they wouldn't

 

[SpacelySprockets]

No they wouldn't

A random twitter users post got 100k likes on top of the original post that got 57k likes(which if you know how twitter works that is an extremely high number), but they wouldnt get even more likes on a major platform posting it on an app strictly generated by likes.. ok

You just repeating the same irrelevant point u saw other people quote me saying which has nothing to do with anything, I never said they were gonna recreate the buzz of the attitude era with an IG post

All I said was if they posted their 3 biggest black female wrestlers on a blog mainly used by black females, that post would get a lot of engagement as well even if wrestling as a whole will continue to be unpopular.. how "nobody cares about them" proves my point wrong I have no idea

Naomi had monstrous buzz after that Royal Rumble return, and the WWE took advantage of it by keeping her off tv, losing matches when she got back on TV, and eventually being used to put over Lacey Evans and Dana Brooke.

And will that engagement lead them to watching

 

[prophecypro]

they try to promote the brand over the specific stars (even though it may not feel like that always) cause of the Rock/Brock situation 17 years ago (which was WWE's own fault) that way they struggle to make stars

There will always be kids who watch wrestling and when they grow up they'll probably mention those guys they knew in pop culture spaces (which is why you see a lot of Gen Z/younger milenials now namedrop and big up the Smackdown six/Ruthless Agression era guys like Mysterio, Angle, Cena, Batista, Hardys and Edge along with the other guys from attitude era who were still popping then) but in terms of stars really crossing over like in the 80s and 90s in the now, its not likely

Im sure they'll be kids in 10 years who will big up the Shield, Horsewoman, Punk/Bryan and maybe some AEW dudes too

Just because something goes viral, doesn't mean that the masses even know or care about it.

People really gotta stop falling into the hyping of believe that something popular on social media means that it's popular to the masses in general. It's not a true statement at all.

 

[prophecypro]

I said maybe, they're on a national tv so who knows. Depends on if the Hot Topic/smark crowd remembers this era

 

[Mook]

They're promoting the brand over the stars cause some dumbass college graduate told them that. That's the buzzword these days "your brand"

That other guy is right, the internet isn't real life.
