Why aren't current wrestling stars known by the general public?

shyts Weird Nowadays, An Artist Like Trippie Red Has 13 Million Followers On IG, Platinum Plaques, Sold Out Shows And I Can’t Name 1 Damn Song From The Guy

And I Honestly Don’t Think 10 Random People Off The Street Would Know Who He Is Either

To be fair that also doesnt necessairly mean shyt either given you get influencers and IG models pulling some crazy numbers like that and people wouldnt know them. Speaks more to the fragmentation of pop culture

That was my whole point.. You can't really say Roman isn't a star when the company is pulling a billion revenue and they about to sell out SoFi for two nights etc...

Fragmented yes... but WWE is healthier than the sh-t that gen z consumes. You'd much rather be WWE than a flavor of the month..

It's just like with boxing, wrestling is simply not as big as it once was. Because we consume the product we live in a bubble that can lead us to view things incorrectly.

i don't believe we are viewing it wrong. To me.. WWE is actually bigger than WE are giving it credit for. TV ratings are an outdated metric. WWE trends all night on Twitter for the smallest thing. Even NXT.

The live gate at Royal Rumble shattered records. WM gonna shatter records. it's more of a bubble than The Attitude Era but it's still huge..
