the comments to this thread lol

Also, I hadn't really considered that this is denying these guys the opportunity to wrestle in front of an actual crowd for the first time in over a year.

On one hand, whatever. On the other hand, why can't they pull this off when Wrestlemania is spread over two nights?

The faces he makes while posting are inexcusable! When he writes a post his face is like a troll double checking bones to see if there's any meat left! When I post I look like a peacock softly kissing a rose! Didn't his parents provide him with a posting mirror to practice forums faces growing up?

Doesn't this also prevent them from getting a WM payday bonus?

assuming there even is a wrestlemania bonus at this point is a pretty big leap

I imagine it would be difficult to run a profitable Mania with diminished crowd capacity unless they are managing to lower production costs against quartered ticket revenue.

They should be paying their wrestlers more anyway, bonuses are a anti worker ruse most of them when compared to fair wages and benefits.

They could afford to run it at an enormous loss if a mania is so important to them. They don't need mania to be profitable.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

Wrestlers are super underpaid when put in comparison to pretty much every other pro sport that’s operating on a similar scale to WWE or in comparison to other TV stars.

They didn’t even give Mania bonuses or royalties to the wrestlers on the WM pre-show. Those SD wrestlers aren’t getting poo poo.

You got paid on the Mania house but not the PPV.

Anyway no one is getting a "bonus" because no one is going to make more than their downside because they haven't run any ticketed events in a year. You are working for your downside until they start touring.

Part of me wants to be charitable and read it as “I’m not embarrassed about that photo and here’s an even worse one” but the parting shot kind of ruins that theory.
