THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!

Nochturnal said:
Not about her being over, and let me be clear, I like Rhea, but damn it man, she lost the title to Iyo, she lost the rematch, Evolution, lost the title match, now Summer Slam, she's getting yet another title match. As far as Rhea losing a time or 2, Charlotte is a 14 time champion, she's lost the title 14 times.....what comparison are you making? Charlotte lost to Rhea at Mania 39, she lost to Tiffany at Mania

Charlotte lost the title some times. Those were one and done losses. She has never been on the receiving end of someone that she had issues overcoming like Rhea had with Iyo. And Charlotte has never been as over as Rhea while Rhea has been far more accepting of putting people over than Charlotte

Rock would gut WWE as a booker. I like (most of) his films but Rock isn't gonna out book Triple H.

Yes WWE has become stale as of late, but I think that's because of who they have as their champions (Cena/Gunther) and who held the belts prior (Cody/Uso).

I expect things to heat up come SummerSlam with Roman getting back in theix and hopefully Bron Breaker elevation, CM Punk, etc...

I think roman came back back was perfect timing to keep things interesting from being boring because of seth getting injured. I know we would've expected to see seth on monday night RAW after SNME with him winning that match if he didn't get hurt.

i'm looking forward to how things will go leading up to summerslam.

I don't understand all the bitching over ticket prices. If you can't afford it, don't go. Period.
And no one is forcing you to pay for floor seats. Folks act like the only tickets available are floor seats.
That's like me bitching about how expensive floor seats are at a Beyonce concert.

I know this is bullshit clickbait from Russo but I'll entertain the idea just for shits and giggles.
If people think HHH is a terrible booker (which I don't) , the Rock would be even worse and would only put himself and all his family members over.
You saw the shitshow that resulted from The Rock's half-baked booking with Travis Scott leading up to WrestleMania this year.
 


It's criminal that it cuts off the rest.

TKO trying to recoupe that money as quickly possible, and gonna price themselves right out of fan attendance, If Tony Khan is smart, he will take advantage of these missteps, keep improving his product, and keep those ticket prices in the right place....hell, now is the time to lower PPV prices and see about getting them shits run on MAX

Dwayne coming in would be an absolute catastrophe. Look at how shit has gone with the little bit he has tried to do. Maybe they should have just let him interrupt the Cody story for him vs Roman so he could have gotten this shit out of his system. Nothing good will come with them replacing Triple H with Dwayne. Also, I feel the WWEs current problems is because H has to appease TKO. This Celebrity shit and the returning legends shit went away, and they were doing fine, now all of a sudden, a bunch came back all at the same time? Now imagine Dwayne in charge....

People are still buying tickets (even the really expensive floor seats that people bitch about) to the shows, so what incentive does TKO/WWE have to lower prices?
Now if attendance starts falling they'll have to lower ticket prices but right now there's no reason to.
People don't complain about the high ticket prices for courtside seats at an NBA game but somehow WWE should lower their prices for ringside seats, lol.

Really? WWE vs NBA.....the people paying for courtside seats in the NBA are not your average basketball fan...bad comparison

For now, we're at the point where tickets are going up, like I said before, if they keep doing this, they are going to price their fan base out, and the people who are showing up just to the PLEs like Mania, Summer Sam and the Royal Rumble aren't going to go the the regular Raw or Smackdown shows, and you'll start to see the same shit that happened to AEW when they were running big arenas....
 
I tuned into AEW Dynamite and WTF....they just had their WrestleMania on Saturday and the show immediately after is in an arena that holds 1100 people?

Shit sounds quiet as fuck. Imagine if the Raw after WrestleMania was held in a similar venue.....people would not stop clowning WWE.

This shit is ridiculous. Biggest US show ...followed by a small ass theater show

And the people with ringside seats are not your average wrestling fans. My point still stands.
All these clickbait videos and posts all regurgitate the same thing about "$17k for a ticket is ridiculous!!!!"
They act like all the tickets are that price, when the truth is there are only a handful of tickets that go for that much and there are die-hard wrestling fans willing to pay that much.

I went to Smackdown, both nights of WM and the RAW after (along with plenty of other folks too) so yes, there are people who have the means to do so.
Yes, at some point if they keep raising prices they will alienate a portion of their audience and attendance will suffer, but for now they are good.
Like I've said on here before, the old days of wrestling being cheap budget-friendly entertainment are long gone now.

You drafted an entire multi response sermon over me saying TKO was trying to recoup their money as quickly as possible....including reiterating the fact that I said they would price their fan base out by doing so, what was the point that you were trying to make with all of this :lol:
