General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

[Chris]

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

 

[Chris]

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

 

[Comrade Khan]

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

 

[Comrade Khan]

ive seen the prices for raw and sdl

 

[Comrade Khan]

ples are even worse

 

[Chris]

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

 

[Comrade Khan]

gonna keep getting worse too so they can tell you they made record profits on gates every ple

 

[Chris]

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

 

[Comrade Khan]

and somehow fans will praise this lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

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

yeah they give zero fucks about the fans at the end of the day lets be honest

 

[Comrade Khan]

its the same thing with concerts

 

[Comrade Khan]

e completely priced out the regular man

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

 

[Comrade Khan]

they**

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
