Yes /wwe/ retards full in damage control mode all over the internet its unreal, they are competing on the level of pro Putin shills

Trips knows who he is and what he's good at, making the best of every opportunity.

Punk bought his own hype.

>>1736306
Because based haitch puts ronda over

>>1736349
To be fair, Trips bought into Ronda's hype with this moment.

>>1736306
HHH was doing what's best for business

Punk was trying to fulfill his 'passion' at 37 when he could've just worked on his comics and chilled with his wife.

>>1736306
hhh is a self aware carny and knows to stay in the wrestling busines

punk was delusional enough to think he could be successful outside of it

>WWE gets a guest appearance from a superstar in another field with significant audience overlap at the peak of her relevance
>Somehow a bad thing

The buzz from Ronda's appearance could have potentially brought in thousands of new viewers to the WWE. After that, why would they care what became of her?

>>1736413
>unannounced segment on a PPV brings in new viewers to never see her on the show again

What.

MMA fans switching to wrestling after one of the most carnie segments of the night

One is a work, other was a massacre.

>GMA talks about stunt
>mainstream attention
>people who don't watch MMA but know her tune in

>>1736503
>MMA fans

The only people more self-centered than MMA fans are ECW/"Hardcore" wrestling fans. Ronda was the biggest mainstream MMA name at the time. Normies who watch both casually would pop and be more interested in WWE, even in the short term.

It's like you people don't think WWE, a multi-billion dollar company, has advertising executives and board meetings.

>tune in
>don't see Rousey
>turn off TV

>>1736306
Lets be fucking real here

Lévesque, Bubba...

Celebrity cameos are consistently worth it for WWE. Pic related.

He's not less of a carnie
But he's not a carnie that got his ass whooped in 2 minutes

>>1736306
Is trips bald

>>1736306
Haitch is having fun, bringing a legit superstar in to have some fun. Letting her kick his ass and having yet another fun story to tell people. Bringing ratings and buzz to the company. That was a good thing. Punk's MMA career on the other hand...

>>1738479
HE'S JUST HAVIN' FUN MAGGLE!

>>1736503
WWE did it for the social media score which they give a shit about for some reason.

>>1738449
If a small percentage of those new viewers see something they find interesting when they tune in and stick around then the stunt was already worth it. This is basic as fuck and has been done for year and years.
