We Are NXT!
Cena is the top guy, gotta blame him.
If they cut TV hours the stock price would fall since they'd be willingly giving up millions of dollars in TV rights money. Raw will never stop being three hours because they get more money this way. If the ratings get really really bad then whenever this current deal is over, USA would try to give em a new deal for 2 hours only
So I don't usually follow this business side much. How are these guys now being paid for the PPV's?
nope, lesnar's the chmap this falls squarely on his shouldersCena is the top guy, gotta blame him.
I'm actually curious about this too... anyone have some 411?
I see this article from May http://www.inquisitr.com/1276095/ww...pping-off-its-wrestlers-pay-with-ppv-bonuses/ says
"The PPV bonuses are gone and replaced with exactly nothing at this time, and likely won’t be in the foreseeable future"
So basically we should spend coli-cash now on WWE stock and sell during WrestleMania weekend.
THEN THE OPENING TRIPLE H PROMO WILL BE ONE FOURTH OF THE ENTIRE SHOW RATHER THAN ONE SIXTH, BROTHER!first thing you gotta do is cut RAW down to 2 hours.
I think it's terrible business having their product this overexposed, I think the stock price would take a hit initially (maybe even a big hit) but in the long-term it would be wiser to take RAW back down to 2 hours.
It went down cause dumbass vince thought hed get 1.5 million subs out of 4 million viewers when only like 200k buy ppvs. To top it off thats just to break even so theyd need more to make a profit
Then this loser said because of nfl and nba contracts hed thought hed get like 400-500 million a year for his new tv contract. Dude barely got less than half of that
long term the best idea for WWE is to have breaks in their scheduling, real shyt.
more time to plan storyline, wrestlers with better health, more of a "need" for the network since itd be off TV and itd force them to create more revenue streams than just tv contracts and gate.
they should have done this before they re-upped their contract with usa. itd be a risky move (risky as fukk) but itd prob pay off a year or two down the line
