WWE's numbers don't match reality. Particularly their merch numbers.

I feel they've been using the line "X isn't our competition, Everything is our competition" since JCP.

Yeah, mostly I just wish he didn't have dementia because I wouldn't wish dementia or alzheimers on my worst loving enemy but also it would've been really cool to see him backstage at AEW one time or something.

There will absolutely be new actors playing Taker, Austin, Rock, Mankind etc sooner than later, they’ll basically do reboots and remakes forever at some point just like comic book movies and by then comic movies might not even be popular anymore

I like how they were given the opportunity to be magnanimous with the “rising tides lift all boats” line and Vince was like “it is absolutely not high tide.”

They'll just use modern Superstars so they can try and promote the brand, and they can't make stars on Raw/Smackdown/NXT

Punk was right I don't think Vince really cares about the wrestling industry, to be honest. He wants his company to be known for entertainment and that's why they've branched out with all the tv and movies and poo poo. They want to be Disney.

If you didn’t listen to it, I really can’t stress how funny it is for Vince to be saying unhinged weirdo poo poo to investment bankers when AEW gets brought up and then Nick Khan panic jumping in to save face with some business talk

They want to be marvel. Vince only saw the first and last 10 minutes of Loki, which is why they debuted a superhero as a loser fuckface nerd.

Infinity War definitely had some WWE-tier stupid babyfaces in it. And then it turns out fate required them to be that stupid for things to have turned out okay.

The Megapowers in the top two Face slots passed their torches to two of their best Midcarders basically right after they beat that heel, and everyone seems to be into them.

If Vince could learn one thing from the MCU, I wish it was push new talent. Latter half of phase 3 and now phase 4 has been mostly newer faces instead of the original Avengers cast.
