Thread 18670801

>The update claims that the 80-year-old hates World Wrestling Entertainment’s recent collaboration with other promotions and constant counterprogramming to AEW. Sources close to Fightful Select mentioned that McMahon keeps up with the current product.
>It is also worth noting that if McMahon had wanted to make these changes, they would have happened long ago. The former CEO’s main priority was not just making money, contrary to what TKO has been doing recently. While McMahon made a lot of great decisions in the 80s,90s, and 2000s, he later failed to adjust, which led to the emergence of a solid number 2 in the industry, that is, AEW.
>Nevertheless, despite McMahon’s focus on counterprogramming in the 80s, he later refrained from selling to AEW during his tenure to avoid any implication of being troubled by competition.

Yeah sorry, I stopped "trusting the experts" years ago. Either provide names of who is saying what or fuck off.

>>18670807
sneaky wording. they're just saying the sources are close to Fightful Select, in other words themselves.
no WWE sources are quoted.
also is the idea that Vince still watches the shows supposed to be news? what else would he be doing? of course he still watches, if only out of curiosity or boredom. he'd have to wonder what they're doing with his show, that they stole out from under his nose.

Sorry but when was AEW ever a solid number 2? Lmao

>>18670907

Lol, no

>>18672015
everything WWE has done since 2022 is reactionary to AEW

>>18672229
the reactionary movement begun as soon as they rushed NXT onto TV, a week before AEW began iirc, on the same night, head to head, in an attempt to kill them.
except NXT got ran off wednesdays by BIG TONE, papa h got demoted, and nearly fucking died himself
LMFAO, KWAB of the decade

He literally dispatched Triple Golem to try and beat AEW to death with NXT, what the fuck is he on?

>>18670801 (OP)
These fuckers constantly get scooped by real media, Netflix deal, Hogan's death etc. and we're supposed to believe they have a source close to Vince lol.

>>18672365
How are things going now?

The correct move, Paul looks like such a gotten to bitch trying to counter program literally everything AEW does

>>18670917
Remember when you said it was gonna be 2 billion?

Why do people assume that Triple H, the head of creative, is the one choosing dates and booking venues?

smarks are so fucking stupid. AEW is the least successful number 2 wwe ever fought

>>18670801 (OP)
after punk left and edge and danielson retired i think its pretty clear vince stopped giving a fuck about being king of the mountain and was basically just living inside his own irl TEW game and everything was shits and giggles to him

>>18670831
yup.

>>18670801 (OP)
Another pro-AEW fanfic? Say it ain't so.
>Vince's main priority wasn't money he only forced himself back into WWE to sell it to a bunch of jews
