>>15918193Anon, this was back in the mid 1980s, before the territories were killed. Vince had a huge pool of wrestlers from all over the nation, and Canada, that he could have pulled from, all with lots of experience working reasonably sized crowds. And that's not even including foreign talent from Mexico or Japan, which the WWF was using (somewhat sparingly) even back then.
If you mean today, then it's a different environment.
>their favorites aren't on tvThe top stars wouldn't unionize because Vince could easily just pay them more money and junk the rest. Only like 5 or so guys matter at any given time, sometimes not even that many. Jesse wasn't going to get those guys to possibly take a paycut to secure better conditions or pay for midcard and job guys.
