Why come WWE have so much goodwill right now that their tv ratings are increasing, their ticket sales are selling like hotcakes and are setting record gates left and right for 2 years now despite being an EVIL FUCKING COMPANY that smarks told me they were

AEW is proof that smarks can't book and their taste in wrestling is complete shit. We told them this when they praised the Japanese crap wrestling but having it proven in an American company is particularly sweet.

It's the same as WCW when they captured that lightning in a bottle with the NWO.
What's weird to me is that at the time the NWO tapped into the cultural zeitgeist whereas the Bloodline is just a bunch of islanders that don't reflect the moment of the times at all...

It's mostly brought back lapsed fans after the worst creative period in the company's history and is up with women and teens but Smackdown is still below it's debut number on Fox. It's never going to be like Austin/NWO again because of how different entertainment options are now.

You aren't a normal person because you can't be. You spend your time collecting and posting frog pictures on an anime site instead of working to improve your life. Harsh, but you brought it on yourself.

Total viewership is probably not above but WWE just did almost 3m on tv with 3m on Peacock and more on Hulu. Their attendance is also higher than WCW right now and almost the same as peak AE WWF.

Honest answer? They've been purchased by a company with near unlimited resources who will basically do anything it takes to get people into the arena.

The bad side of it is going to be the ultimate in corporate sanitizing that is still to come. They are going to clean house at corporate more than the wrestlers & make it a good clean fun time to be sold at any point.

It may be at a high, but the soul is dead. Enjoy the remnants.

I just think they got back people who hated the late 10s WWE. They like this bloodline story.

This current crowd would sit on it's hands & complain about blood if you put the Austin-Hart submission match in front of them now.

The writing has gotten consistent enough that it makes sense to tell long term stories on TV, something that you couldn't do under Vince's complete control. That's all it is. People like getting invested in characters and stories which is what they're doing. Vince wanted to throw random shit at you all the time and hope you forget what you saw last week because he's got cte.

Maybe because competent professionals run the company instead of an autistic money mark and 3 indie wrestlers?
