lets be honest, nobody on the current roster is good enough or charismatic enough for me to tone into the WWE ever again. Last night I couldn't even make it through the 6 minute Raw highlights because of the lack of fukk that I give. I wouldn't even blink an eyes if the E went out of business next month and there's no wrestling ever again.

I'm thinking that this is eventually what's going to happen......and I can't wait to see how it's handled, and the backlash that will certainly follow.

After months of pathetic, pitiful, downright shameless promoting of "$9.99"....how the fukk do you go about not only raising the standard price, but also taking away the much coveted PPV's?

For months on end, we have started off Raw with long, drawn-out Authority promos, with Trips and Steph selling the $9.99 price point, with smug looks on their faces...looking like they are oh-so-meta by advertising on the show. Well the chickens always come home to roost, now the company is in trouble, changes need to be made and the WWE is going to be left with egg on it's face one way or another.

They're fukked.
It's almost time...running back with that tail between their legs.

This is how I save WWE from running out of cash:

1. WWE Studios is a bust, cancel it and sell all the movies to TV stations/Netflix/whatever.

2. The network should cost at least $30/month.

3. Charge for the big 4. They should have never been $9.99, there no way to recoup from the people who normally drop $200 a year buying those PPVs all the way down to $40, even with PPV getting their cut.

4. NXT needs a cable deal, maybe Spike will fukk with it since TNA flopped.

5. Daniel Bryan fans hijack the main storyline and obviously didn't keep their subscriptions. Deavor him and put the belt on your cash cow, John Cena.

6. Deavor Total Divas and all of the other random characters that don't do anything.

Who let Russo in? :merchant: I was with you till this.

:heh:@ cats blaming this on D-Bry as if the past hasn't been mostly Cena/Reigns as the face for the company

Even though he got an inflated ego, CM Punk ideally was what the new face of WWE could have been going forward, he had a segment of non-wrestling fans interested in him and endorsement deals, offers to come on TV and merch which was selling. Yes, the numbers didn't match on PPV and that's where I stop his stans but in fairness to them I don't know if always they promoted him to be the main event draw when champ ( I still think CM Punk vs Rock with an all-out promo push would have made loot in 2013 provided you keep Punk's momentum in being mainstream visible). You could have had Cena/Punk/D-Bry as a triple face of WWE like Rock/Austin in 2000 appealing to all fanbases. Its weird, but getting back into wrestling the past few months, before I used to think they were no stars but there's always potential still there to get casual fans or old WWF fans. Like a dude like Finn Balor down in NXT and his facepaint game would go over, girls like AJ and Paige can appeal to the girls like Cena the boys, you have the older audience who follows indies pining for Zayn, Owens, Rollins, Ambrose.

They seem more afraid to push their stars and so we get the no star factor which has a knock on effect with everything.

They've really done a shyt job outside of Cena of making anyone care about new stars the past 10 years. Punk ,Lesnar and Bryan are the only ones who have found their own way to get over.

The stock is over 13, I wonder when the gravy train ends. I don't think we make it to wm

Hopefully it gets to 17 so I can make a profit.

Who gives a fukk about this bullshyt.

People monitoring the WWE's financial comings and goings is the corniest shyt ever.

It aint going nowhere.

I do. I own stock in the company.

Vince is so dumb he made network cost 1.5 million subs to break even when raw gets 4 to 5 million viewers a week and caters to kids who have no fukking wallet.

Why did you buy stock in a company run by a man that dumb and after the quarterly report?

They turned a profit after their quarterly. They aren't going out of business. Buy low. I bought low. It's up a buck since I got it, so if it starts tanking I can get out with my shirt.
