The real sad shyt will be the some of these mid-majors collapsing completely. Impact/ROH/MLW level companies...somebody not gone make it.
I agree about taking that one tweet with a grain of salt.
The thing about talent sitting on couches part is a lot of that talent would be traveling to the shows and just be there just in case. We've known for years WWE would write shows all the ways up to the lights go on. But now some of those people are literally at home.
They have a bunch of people in NXT that will be moved up or recently have been moved up recently like Austin Theory. And they probably have a backlog of NXT trainees they need to debut. They still have a huge talent pool. SOme of these people like Hawkins and Ryder were long over due.
Mike K and Maria seem like they been telling WWE one thing and the fans another. Their entire run with the company has been some weird shyt.
The Lars thing, I can't answer, you got me there. Probably someone Vince personally liked and still sees something in him. Maybe he'll be part of the 2nd wave.
