and thus, wwe died not with a bang but with a whimper

Damn, the NXT house show I went to a couple months back looked better than that, and that was only 1500 people.
>>3144158
wow that's pretty pathetic. at what point do they just stop having house shows altogether
Jeez, that's pretty bad. No wonder the company is nearly bankrupt.

I used to go to WWF house shows in Hammond Indiana when I was a kid in the 80's., the venue was that size and it would be completely filled.

dont they need to keep doing house shows to keep above the company water? when even that becomes cost prohibitive, wwe is fooked
It's the hard cam side you gook weebs get over it Japan ducks cocks
Vince should get his head out of his ass and give the fans what they want by pushing the guys who get over organically. Instead the only people who get pushed are the ones who've been handpicked.
They have no target audience anymore. I heard a podcast where HHH was talking about how it's hard to do heels and faces anymore because the audience will be so varied. Back in the day it was mainly males age 15-30 so they could predict reactions better. Now they're trying to appeal to everyone from little kids and families to women, men, minorities etc. so when they book somebody, the reactions will always be like 50/50. You can see this with Roman especially, men boo him but then there's always women and I assume families cheering for him. In the grand scheme of things he's probably actually pretty well off, at least he gets more than lukewarm reactions. Otherwise the audience is pretty much dead
By trying to appeal to everybody, they're not actually appealing to anybody and the whole thing is dying. Of course there are numerous other problems with the current product too
Do you think Raw and Smackdown will ever be taped at bingo halls and gyms? Would Vince stoop that level to save his company?
>>3144453
Quite the opposite. Vince taking it down with him.

Vince is over 70 years old. I doubt he cares anymore.
Anyone who is a LT stockholder in this company are the ones who will suffer the pain. I'd feel bad for them, but then I remember you'd have to be a total retard to make a long term investment in a fake fighting company, so I don't feel bad.
