Yeah the Shanya Wayne promo works given the setup of the feud and also given that she isn't really a good promo. It was so over the top and Christian and Nick mugging sold it and it worked. They just need to resist over exposing her so it doesn't wear out its welcome

History Comes Inside! posted:What does merch have to do with Sting having a single mask for a segment Well they could have placed a bulk order for Sting masks, given one to Sting for the segment, and then put the rest up for sale at their merch stands at shows, doesn't seem like it would have been too difficult to do

MJeff posted:I've been to four AEW live events and the merch was abysmal at all four. AEW absolutely sucks at marketing its merch, which is kind of nuts because it's almost like free money. You never see any of the wrestlers wearing their shirts on TV, they don't have much on hand at live events, they're not plugging their online store. Like how hard can any of that be? You have the entirety of the BCC just wearing plain white tees and track suits, like if the NWO never wore their signature logo shirts. Say what you will about WWE, but they know how to push their merch. The only time I really remember anyone in AEW actually wearing their shirts was MJF/Cole.

And bcc. Swerve wears his shirts.

Wrestlers really shouldn't wear their own merch anyways, like going to see a band and they're all wearing their own band shirt.

The Christina/Shayna thing wasn't bad per se but it was cringe. Cringe enough to make me change the channel. Of course given that Swerve is getting cheers being a chickenshit who goes out of their way to be as antagonizing as possible is the only way to get booed in AEW.

I actually run an ideologically pure promotion. We don't run shows and we have not hired anyone to help keep that purity. If you're interested I can send you the Patreon link.

Was WWE ever in danger of dying? I've heard the mid 90s were dire but did they actually stand a chance of going out of business?
|
# ? Dec 25, 2023 02:23 |

WWE was losing money in the mid 90's when all of the North American Business was bad but they cut costs so they probably weren't in Danger of closing. If anything the closest they probably came was in 97 when USA was close to dropping them from the station and they hadn't rebounded in ratings enough to get another station
