I think the reason why WWE doesn't get NASCAR money is because TV execs, aswell as advertisers view wrestling fans as low-IQ'd, no money having trailer trash even lower than NASCAR fans. Attitude Era was very lucrative for WWE, but it sure gave them such a stigma they are still trying to wash off, not even from the content, but from the fans it brought in. This is why UFC doesn't get real major sponsors, they got those old Attitue Era fans.

LOTS OF WWE NAMES SET TO APPEAR AT BIG JANUARY VEGAS PRESENTATION

By Mike Johnson on 2013-12-13 10:39:59


Shawn Michaels, Steve Austin, John Cena and Triple H have all been announced as appearing at the 1/6/14 WWE event at the Encore Theater in Las Vegas, Nevada.


Vince McMahon has already been announced as appearing at the event, set for the same week as the 2014 International CES, an international consumer and electronics trade show that WWE has regularly had a presence at.


Last year, the company showcased their App, which had just debuted a few months prior to CES 2013.


As we've noted, it's quite possible this will be the official announcement for the WWE Network. Whatever it is, WWE is bringing in some major names to support the presentation.

Vince bringing out the AKs for the announcement. I mean the only big names not there representing past generations is Rock, Taker, Brock, and Hulk

Must be about WCW stuff, because Cody didn't do much for an indepth interview about himself.

Wonder what money they get to do these shows, and what roylaties they get from the network.

Do you think they would track views? Maybe even release the popular ones on DVD. It's interesting to think about though royalty wise

As long as Road Dogg gets a show, I'm good with it.

What about like..Road stories or something. WWE magzine will do the "Had to be there" stories about superstars road stories, and I'm sure with how much they travel a year, they could easily get a season out of road stories. You could even go way back and get stories from Hart, and Piper and the like.

I would think a. Cartoon depiction of some wrestler tales would go over well. Piper teaching the younger kids about himself while they show it in a Cartoon form would be good IMO, same with a Flair or Hogan.

I like the the road story thing.
