They cater to their audience in a way that they never did with Vince. I think it's still completely unwatchable but it can sure fill a building. Smackdown became the A Show when it was on Fox (larger viewerbase)

I think Smackdown having the main world champion, Roman, sort of made it the defacto A show as well.

Sorry, maybe not every week – but Smackdown seems to do close to 10,000 fairly often. I find it interesting that Smackdown looks to do higher attendance than Raw (going by a quick search of WrestleTix on twitter) considering how clear they tried to make it that Raw was the A-Show for so many years.

I don't watch WWE and don't care about them as a company, but from an outsider's perspective it seems like fans of the show are into what they're doing and that the product is hot from a fan perspective.

Im guessing being on Friday night goes a long way here

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

i was at a grocery store in stamford one day recently and i saw the top story in the town's newspaper was vince selling some stock and realized not a lot happens in stamford. that's my "vince selling stock" story

I really enjoy the Young Bucks work. The output of their matches over the course of their career is something I enjoy way more than most other wrestlers. They can effortlessly have amazing matches every single night. I'll always go to bat for the bucks.

I realize that this is on me for being duped by clickbait but I am getting super duper tired of wrestling news sites using deceptive headlines for their articles

“Tony khan speaks on cm punk at survivor series” results in “i cannot legally speak about that at this point, but let’s talk about all in 2024”

Well that was a nothing news article

“Wwe legend hall of famer speaks on aew wrestler, criticizes him, aew wrestler responds” results in some dumb bullshit booker t said on his loving podcast and kota ibushi blew it off and just made a joke about strong style

I am only slightly grinding my teeth

“Undertaker weighs in on bray wyatt, speaks on not passing the torch to him at mania” results in some bullshit from taker’s loving podcast where he just goes on to blow wyatt and say how that dude didn’t need the torch passed, he made his own

Ugh, loving christ
