Yeah, that’s rather unfortunate and a tricky situation and absolutely nobody should excuse the atrocities that are committed in their country. Not just with homosexuals but in regards to a lot of human rights violations.

That being said, I’m gonna be honest with you. If they offered me $1 billion to run only two shows a year, I don’t know if I have the willpower to say no on principle.
well thats because u dont already have a billion dollars. if u were already rich beyond your wildest dreams, why sellout your principles and your soul for a few more . ill never get it from my pov, we need so little to be so rich

fwiw, he could as my beliefs today were not the same as when i was in my early 20s. HOWEVER that should not mean we ignore he said it in the first place, I agree
For sure people can change. I believe in that as much as the next guy.

My problem with sentiments like that is just that way too many people opt to use it as an excuse for people parading their shit/morally wrong/sexist/racist/criminal/etc opinions around.

Yeah without all that money it definitely probably be a little bit tempting. Probably would still stick to my guns and not do it, but it be a little bit tempting.

But yeah if I already had enough to set me for life it’s no damn way I do it.

I think the other factor to remember too is WWE is a public company and they have to adhere to stockholders. Like I don’t for-see Triple H stopping the Saudi shows because the Board of Directors would immediately replace him with somebody that would keep them going.

That corporate greed is a real bitch.

yeah that is 100% a huge issue as well and a massive problem for society as a whole, in my opinion. where does the need for constantly bigger margins stop and a system where nothing is every enough is not sustainable. it's gotten way out of hand imo but if thats a separate topic of discussion . but its also why i dont like when politicians try to pool in small businesses and corporations and act like the same rules are fair for both - these are not the same ppl lol

That’s one of the main reasons why if I owned a wrestling company like AEW or TNA I would probably never go public because there are a lotta ways stockholders can remove you from your position if you don’t adhere to their fiduciary responsibility.

I do think for future reference he should keep things like to himself and not share it on a worldwide platform where plenty of people will see it. It’s unfortunate he believes in that stuff imo but keeping it to himself is his best option.

someone must have forced him to share that post you right

It's almost like when you get more popular more people pay attention to you. crazy stuff.

I don't think HHH would stop the Saudi shows even if the stockholders were fine with it. Don't forget that Hunter is basically in Vince's shoes now. I'm sure his number one priority is still getting the most profit out of the product and the Saudi shows are filling the vault substantially and they are overall on great terms with Saudi as well.
