they still run live events tho?
it's extremely rare not counting NXT. If it's not an international or the holiday tour they're not doing any. TKO said they don't need to go to C markets anymore, it's pointless

The funny thing was they were even profitable, but not profitable "enough" bc it was bringing the margins down

seems pretty obvious to me that WWE is slowly but surely making it impossible for working class folks to go to their shows ever

As long as it's making more money this way it's the way it'll go

Profit margins, not making money are all they talk about. Making the most money, no matter what that hurts elsewhere

I guess you can also weigh the possibilities for injuries against the profitability somewhat

Announcing record gates for events where less tickets were sold than the year before really pisses me off lol AEW did it like once for a double or nothing and I think Tony got shamed into not doing it bc now he might just mention at the press conference instead of have them plug it on air
