They're making money so they think everything they're doing is fine. Because that's all they care about now. How much money they can make.

I mean considering how AEW is currently building big programs with 3 previous NXT champions, he's not wrong lol. but out of the current crop in NXT idk if I'd pick up any more of them, the show sucks now and nobody is over besides like Io Shirai

I came here to chew bubblegum and quote 'They Live', and I'm... at an impasse.
“A tide lifts all boats? No, they’re like WCW.”

You know, our competition during the hottest period of wrestling in history.

A rising tide lifts all boats? Why would that matter to a competition that explicitly builds itself around using talent from all over the world?

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
Vince McMahon: Very gotten to
Nick Khan: Could not give a poo poo about what anyone else is doing because he's trying to make the WWE profitable so he can inherit then sell it.

Not gonna lie I'd gladly watch Law and Order reruns over anything the WWE is putting out.

Original flavor only though, I'm not a big fan of SVU.

We have 30 years of evidence with Vince that that isnt the case, having control over the industry, being the industry, is more important than making money to him. Punk was right

It’s an old Netflix line but it actually made sense there since the point was “people stay up all night binge watching and the only thing that stops them is having to go to bed” not “people can’t stay awake during our three hour snore fest of a show”

God, Ted Turner was forced out of the TV business 20 years ago, he's basically loving braindead at this point and he STILL lives in Vince's head.

One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
Great to hear good old Vince and Nick are focused and ready to take on the world! I really hope they stick it to AEW by releasing Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn and the New Day! Or imagine how much they could gently caress Tony over by giving him Asuka or Ember Moon?

Nick Khan really thinks he's gonna turn WWE into Marvel. Good lord, he's gonna hit the wall so hard.

Or I guess maybe he's just gonna strip them for parts and fly off on his golden jet as it burns.

They sort of did that with Mick Foley vs. Randy Orton years back.
