REALLY bad look for Vince to have been the first to leave, regardless if he knew already that the talent was being grounded or not.

And still no one knows at this point...
Also probably time to admit that this isn't a WWE problem it's a wrestling problem, there just aren't that many fans these days..
No one going to AEW shows either. |

That was the smallest crowd they had, was kind of know...Meltzer was talking about it on WOR this morning.
Shit there are so many options to stream and consume wrestling, it's no surprise no one goes to live events any more. |

Most former wrestling fans (like me) don't watch this stupid shit and haven't for over a decade. Too much winking at the camera, too much obvious cooperation, too much no selling, too many big moves that mean nothing, and the goddamn promos are WAY too long far too often. It can't even present an ILLUSION of competitiveness anymore. It's a cottage industry and most of the audience are just old guys who are hyper obsessed about 'workrate' and 'mic skills' and judging the product like a ****ing broadway musical. Barely any women or young fans compared to 30 years ago to boot. A LOT of 50 year old dudes though... Back in the 90's when I was a teenI attended parties with some friends where we'd all watch Monday Nitro every week. Party was hosted by a girl and her mom. Only myself and one other guy watched with them. We'd get into the show and cheer for our favorites. NOw it's just a bunch of middle age dudes sitting back judging the product. It's not fun anymore. It's just become something people watch to complain about. |

And WWE seems to regale in screwing a good thing up. And honestly they have such weird angles... How much must we have to put up with seeing a "Corporate " persona be involved in being the Evil Empire.....it is old and way overdone. There is so much about the wrestling world that turns off people.... |

The sad thing is from a ring stand point the talent has never been better. The characters are just not good so no one cares to be invested.

WWE hasn't ever really recovered from that period of incessantly shoving Reigns down peoples throats.

Bray Wyatt character....just stupid. Too many old guys who need to hang it up and let younger guys have a chance (See Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, Daniel Bryan, Undertaker, Kane, Big Show, etc) Non interesting characters....(Andrade, Ali, Bo Dallas, Ricochet, Nikki Cross, ) Retreads.....(Eric Young, Dolph Ziggler, Bobby Roode, Erick Rowan, the OC, the Hardy's, ) Bad characters with weird storylines....(Lana, Rusev and Lashley- R-Truth, Carmella, Drake Maverick and Mike and Maria Kanellis) I could go on..... |

You didn't see cody promo I'll bet it wasn't too long and it hit the nerves in the right places. Also dynamite and aew dark are hella entertaining. Nxt is also good but i watch aew live cause i want vince to start working. Give me a reason to watch raw and smackdown. Also aew women division is really good. Only because wwe keep pushing fire and desire. Lana and carmella. I want wwe 4 horsewoman vs mma 4 horsewoman. I want the o.c. with finn balor running wwe like they did in new japan. I want riddle vs. Bork laser.
