> Regarding these unique contracts WWE is offering to key UK talents that have some name value or are marketable, they are described as different from anything WWE has ever done and are being called "competition-killer" deals by some. The deals are not for WWE NXT and the WWE Performance Center or the main roster, and are low-dollar guarantees that would see the talent stay in the UK and be allowed to work indies. WWE would also have the right to approve or not approve their indie dates. The talent would now have a small cushion from WWE and the added value of being associated with the company. The key here is that WWE will be able to lock the talent in and prevent them from going to ITV or other promotions that have streaming content.

>We don't have confirmation on who has been offered deals but The Wrestling Observer says some of the names are fairly well-known in the "UK hardcore community" while others have no name value at all. Many have worked WWE tryouts in the past but the company wasn't interested in them at the time. Several who worked the recent tryouts in Glasgow were offered this new deal as well. WWE is reportedly doing background checks and has told the potential signings to clean up their social media accounts but the actual physical contracts have not been offered yet.

> These new contracts from WWE were a hot topic backstage at the recent ICW show in Glasgow with some trying to pressure others into not signing, calling them "mark deals" and saying WWE "don't want you, they just don't want anyone else to have you."

> There's also speculation on WWE possibly doing some kind of TV show with these new UK talents for that market only. The idea is that just being associated with WWE will be a big boost to the local marketability of each talent signed.

WWE bit themselves in the arse by only ever airing on sky sports in the UK, wrestling is in our blood but WWE
is forever a niche interest over here. They would have 10s of millions of diehard fans if it was on free tv for us growing up

But free tv doesn't make money in the UK though. Look at what happened to TNA.

I don't quite remember this, I only watched it once on YouTube years later. But if it was anything like the Backlash match I'm sure it's amazing. King was in full troll mode and JR was triggered HARD.

>>2008909
JR + Heyman truly is GOAT commentary team.

I concur fellow Rawlpha

if raw had literally anyone besides cuck foley as a gm then it wouldn't even be a contest

>>2007792
raw's titles are bronze medals and not even worth their weight in copper

The slim jim

HBGay main evented Wrestlemania 23 which has the highest domestic buyrate of all time and the second highest overall. Undercarder main evented three Wrestlemania's and none of them got more buys than the previous year including one being the record low.

You can argue it was only because of Trump but Taker had Floyd Mayweather for WM24 actually in a match and he couldn't match the 23 buyrate

i used to think it was Undertaker who was the bigger star but when you dig deeper into the numbers, it was always Shawn. even in his later years Shawn was a more consistent buyrate draw than Taketty

At least he's actually won a title

Hope the don't pull some Orton/Harper betrayal angle at TLC

Bray needs a fuckin title already and Slyno ran its course

You need to understand that when this started it was at a time when every single thing about wrestling was shit. People needed something new and they genuinely enjoy that.

I guess I could see that. I kind of enjoy the broken character but I find myself wishing it went a little further. Also that outdoor match was hilariously dumb
