POST IMAGES THAT REALLY MAKE YOU THINK!!

You weebs really aren't helping your reputation of getting easily worked

I bet WWE's gate was about 10 times bigger though

MSG is expensive as fuck

>Believing puro numbers

And there is no way that could even be remotely accurate. New Japan was on its deathbed around that time.

Why were 20 and 21 held in such small venues? Why not stadiums or domes?

>>2859003
>believing WWE numbers

>>2859005
WWE was in a bad spot from 2002-2005.

>>2859005
Could not fill the seats so they had to use bingo halls
>the state of WWE

>>2859007
Duh, but puro numbers are notoriously exaggerated to a ridiculous degree. Don't even try and argue against that.

>>2859011
Why? They were literally just coming off the attitude era? Was it because of the XFL, or Vince going public with the company?

>>2859003
>New Japan was on it's deathbed

NJPW was also on it's deathbed during the 80s and still sold out the dome. Being on it's deathbed never stopped 'em from drawing.

no austin no rock no foley and triple hs reign of terror

>>2859016
Wrestling crashed hard and fast after WCW's death and Austin's heel turn. 2002 was them in full panic mode, it hasn't aged well going back and revisiting it. If you pay attention and look past WWE's camera trick, some of the crowds are really small from that time period too.Taboo Tuesday in 2004 drew less than 4,000 people.

>Taboo Tuesday in 2004 drew less than 4,000 people.
that's because it was a house show right up until the week they announced it

>>2859019
The same could be said of WWE making 20 times what NJPW is making in its prime.

>>2859021
average arena: 10000 cap
bingo hall: 200 cap
whats your point?

>>2859026
Damn I only started watching wrestling late 2004, but that for me was the strongest the product ever was from watching it live. Ruthless Agression era was great imo.

>>2859029
Ah, that I did not know. Fair enough, wrestling did crash hard in 2002.

>>2859038
Melzter was talking like WWE was a few years from going under in 02

things really started to nose dive

>>2859041
What a retard

>>2859041
I think the fact that wrestling was fucked in 2002 really just goes to show Vince isn't a good promoter and buissness man. How you can go from the most successful era in wrestling history, to almost going out of business in less than a year speaks volumes. In 2002, Rock, Austin, Goldberg and Hogan were all still actively wrestling ffs.

>>2859046

9/11 killed the edge culture of the late 90's and, in turn, the wrestling boom. It was out of Vince's control.

More seats = Cheaper Seats
Less seats = More expensive seats

Then you're fucking retarded.

>>2859057
That's fucking stupid. It didn't die because "9/11 killed anti edge culture". 90s XTREME shit was just a cultural fad that faded away with the turn of the millennium. Wrestling died because 2001 WWF up until the brand split was incredibly wonky and lame and no one was interested in it anymore after WCW was gone because the fight was over.

Also, triple h became their guy and managed to convince everyone that despite killing ratings and revenue he was still a good choice to be the guy.

This. The brand split, Gaitch and the name change all played a part. The brand split was one of the stupidest fucking ideas they ever came up with

When I think of NJPW, I don't think of the Young Cucks. Your meme is shit

good thing it's not about what you think about you dumb fuck

No one thinks of them when you mention NJPW moron. That shit meme would be more appropriate for PWG or maybe ROH.

Aw, I bet you spent a lot of time on that little meme of yours and were hoping it would spread, only for it to be revealed as a complete and utter failure, just like your life.

Looks like Wrestlemania isn't all that it is cracked up to be.
