This is going to be their way of saying we had this show first when AEW debuts that second show and oh, what a coincidence!! They’re on at the same time on the same date!

I mean, I don’t know what’ll actually happen but this wouldn’t surprise me. And then War Part 2 between two fan bases starts. Cool.

I agree at this point too. I think really they’re just dead even now, which is a gain for a company like AEW. I’ll add one more example.

I read a scoop today on the dumb Twitter that WWE has already cooled off and the “honeymoon stage is already over for Priscilla Kelly and Cora Jade”, who they hired and threw right into their tag tourney to lose.

WWE has no current plans on what to do with them from here and they’re shelved for now.

I’m dead serious. That’s a terrible play for the women’s division to prop up a new signee and catapult off the new signing. Sad really.

ahahaha they haven't even been there a month

just about every single quality of life expense you think the wwe could do to make their wrestlers feel respected or treated well in the slightest is something they don't do

where's that bayley interview where the other person was baffled that they had to drive themselves to venues

Oh I know, but I just figured getting them their merch (if for no other reason than that they can wear it during entrances to sell it!) was the absolute bare minimum they could do.

Since it's a new sub-brand for wrestlers that just got hired, will it have Gabe and/or Borash doing the Uncle Paul photo op handshake with any new hires or big match winners?

fox sports keeps doing dumb regular sports fan forum games using wwe talent and it keeps backfiring because these people desperately need to avoid the disparagement of their worth online in a way that doesn't exist in real sports. in wwe their performance barely means anything and the perception of their value is everything. e.g. a "$1" point guard in one of those things making 12 million a year and being a safe starter caliber nba player could not possibly give less of a poo poo and there would be no reason to

This is a super great point, it really keeps backfiring for exactly the same reason every time, because the underlying problem is exactly as you describe.
