>>13943920>AEwwwTranny doesnt know how evaluations workIf a company hired an athlete for a 1 million yearly contract, that Athlete is worth 1 million/year, and since he is an asset to the company, that value translates to the companies overall value.
So if the company has 5 athletes, each on a 1 year 1 million $ contract, the evaluation of the company would be 5 million +/- 500k. There are other factors considered, like performance in the specific seasons, how much worth comparable competitors are, etc., but the price of an athlete is factored into these.
Basically you can artificially hike up your companies value for an evaluation, if you somehow knew that an outsider would do such a thing. There are ways.
>Forbes was accurate with American Football related things, why cant they be accurate here?Im not saying they arent accurate, Im just saying that they over-value the real worth of the company. After all, a company is only as good as the profit it produces. For sport-based companies, thats a lot trickier. With American Football, Soccer, Basketball, etc., if a player is the GOAT in their field this season, there is value in this player thus the price for their contract is extremely high. But for wrestling that isnt really the case, since its more comparable to an actual soap opera than a physical competition. Yet it still relies sports-based metrics when it comes to evaluations and such. Its weird.
Lets look at Okada and his impact. Or rather the lack thereoff. He didnt really move that much merch and the ratings actually take a dive whenever he is on the american tv's. Can you really, in good faith, claim that Okada's rumored $4.5 million/year contract is worth it? He would have to earn the company MORE than that per year for it to be a justified valued contract. I cant. Good for Okada for getting a legit steal, but bad for AEW.
