Saudi money is not a large portion of WWE revenue. They make a huge amount on TV deals, advertising, ticket sales and merch sales because they are super popular no matter what you think. :)

I feel like nothing except pop music and movies are relevant anymore. There was so much cool shit back in the 2000s and everyone was talking about it, nowadays you can talk about games or tv shows and majority of people would have no idea what you are talking about. We all live in our bubbles and nobody really cares about anything anymore.

It is funny that despite being less culturally relevant than ever it generates more revenue than ever. I guess advertisers have more money and are less picky with where they show their products

you spend too much time worried about what other people think, and I'm sure that extends well beyond wrestling

before seeing anything other than the JP truck in the thumbnail I read

and thought 'well he's a fag but at least he went with kids from his family' and kek
I don't know man. I could see going somewhere like Cedar Point or wherever for the coasters every once in a while. Disney and Universal seems to be for the more mentally ill type adults at a certain point though.

Why is the level of 'the big leagues' so poor?

Why is the level of performance and achievement so poor and so low in 'the big leagues'?
Isn't it supposed to be the highest level and the peak?
These people are literally being paid millions for being shit.
It's a very mediocre product for a very mediocre audience who applauds the terrible performance of their terrible sports entertainers

Yeah, no argument there.
I'd put NJPW over WWE and AEW. But I don't watch much of it these days, I mostly just watch Stardom but that's not a recommendation that's well received around here so I was just trying to think of decent men's wrestling.
NOAH's got shit booking but can be hard hitting. I like AJPW as well (it's about as old-school in terms as style as you can get) but people would probably bounce off the fact that there's zero English. NOAH at least has English for bigger shows.

Matches today are too overproduced. Unreal exposed it. You have someone in the ref's ear telling the wrestlers what spots to do and the ref doesn't even try and act like a ref and more like a dance instructor.

It honestly takes away any enjoyment I have of this, I can only ever enjoy watching old matches due to this.

And Cena's last match with Gunther was actually terrible from this standpoint. That brother didn't even try to hide how hard he was calling spots. All new wrestlers take inspiration from him as if he wasn't getting booed for over a decade for being lame in the ring

it's very simple: success in modern america has absolutely nothing to do with ability, integrity, skills, or any other virtue. it's all just "who you know". WWE and AEW have the connections to suppress competitors, even when those competitors are putting out a better product. whenever a good alternative comes along, they use those connections to make sure that relatively few people will ever see it. over time, this encourages both of these companies to put out a shitty low-effort product.

they're related because marketing is somewhat dependent upon having access to the big platforms. if some smaller company comes up with a good marketing campaign, they can just keep it off the larger platforms and then most people will never see it. it's really disheartening because most people are just sheep who won't stand up for anything.

So someone could have a really good idea but if HHH hates it then it doesn't happen.

these wrestlers talk way too much and i think we're getting to a point where management is tired of these people being so outspoken.
and i'm talking across both companies: WWE and AEW
i think it's getting to a point where management is sitting there saying:
> we're the ones cuttin' your paychecks, what are you doing? What are you doing?

prime example is:
> Tony Khan: alright, if that's how you feel, we got something for you. You're gonna drop this AEW Women's Championship.
> AEW female: oh, that's how you feel?
> Tony: yea, yea. don't show up to Dynamite.
> AEW female: what, tonight?
> Tony: no, ever. Don't ever come back. I don't ever want to see you on my programs ever again.
> AEW female: that's how you feel?
