>TKO owns both WWE and UFC
How long until WWE rings look like this?

Will e-drones just lay down and take it without complaint, disregarding and betraying Vince's wishes while they celebrate "record profits"?

>>19169675 (OP)
there is no hope
there is no beauty
there is only consoom

>>19169675 (OP)
Why is this bad?

>>19169718
Idiocracy is real

>>19169675 (OP)
Are you mad because AEW makes no profits and actually loses millions of dollars each month?

>>19169675 (OP)
I honestly don't know why companies pay for this shit. I've never seen an ad ever in my life and gone 'hey, I wanna buy that right now'

>>19169776
You need a job and money to buy things anon. Once you get either maybe things will change for you.

>>19169766
what does that have to do with the topic at hand

>>19169784
I have everything I want though. I just buy it. But I've never seen an ad and wanted that thing. I don't get it, do people see this shit on the ring and go 'wow I must buy that right NOW!'
I don't understand why

>>19169675 (OP)
Of all the things wrong with modern professional wrestling this bothers me the least.

I don't think WWE rings will ever have big ass red circles all over.

>>19169834
Advertisers bank heavily on the subconscious human mind. You have probably been in a few situations where you decided you wanted or needed something and then suddenly you remember, hey! those cock suckers at the local try n save sell that shit, I'll go buy 4. And that's the secret of advertising. You may not want or need it now, but you might later and hopefully when you do, you remember their ad and buy their shit.

>>19169834
how the fuck do you know what you want then? Genuinely asking for like entertainment. How do you know if you want a book or a game or a movie or anything like that without seeing literally ANYTHING about it? You just fucking click shit randomly and watch or read or play whatever?

>>19169864
The internet has destroyed this.

Every sensible person that realizes they need something just looks it up online, checks reviews, and then tries to buy what is best for what they need.

>>19169872
Do you need to see a monster logo on a WWE ring to understand you're thirsty?

>>19169834
>do people see this shit on the ring and go 'wow I must buy that right NOW!'
yes. not as many as advertisers think, but more than someone like yourself would believe.

>>19169834
You've never seen a commercial for a movie and wanted to check it out?

>>19169834
it's not to make you buy it immediately. Most advertising is just oversaturation, the more you hear and see it, the more it will be latched into your core memories. Look at Prime, people only know what that is now strictly based on advertising. It came out of nowhere, isn't very good, but now it's ubiquitous

>>19169876
that's not entertainment, my question was specifically entertainment.

>>19169883
>WWE isn't entertaining
Thanks for finally admitting what we all knew decades ago.

>>19169886
You don't actually want to talk about this topic, or what that person said about not being influenced by ads, which is a topic I found slightly interesting. You're just saying random shit. So I am going to stop replying to you after this and you can go talk gibberish somewhere else.

>>19169872
> How do you know if you want a book or a game or a movie or anything like that without seeing literally ANYTHING about it?
Usually someone recommends me something or when I feel the need to watch/play something new, I google stuff that came out and filter it by myself until I find something that I like
I don't need to see ads to do it

>>19169776
ads work on a subconcious level which makes them so beautiful. often when i purchase a product i realize i was guided by advertising, and it's actually pretty cool. companies know what you want better than you do so why not let them do the thinking?
ads are a form of art and not realizing this means you are an inbred, mentally challenged aewtist

>>19169872
>how the fuck do you know what you want then?
This anon has never figured out how to use adblock I guess kek

>>19169902
t. fucking retard that doesn't know SEO is done by most of the same companies who run commercials

>>19169947
what does sasha banks have to do with it

>>19169944
>If I don't disable my ad browser now will I be able to live my life
People are honestly fucking retarded
>>19169892
I asked about why companies bother. There's so many logos on the ring it's all a mess and no one actually looks at that and goes and buys it. Lets say it does work in your subconsciousness, next time I'm at the store I'll buy whatever energy drink is on sale I'm not going there specifically to buy monster cause I seen it on a WWE show.
I never see ads online, when I see them irl I think what a complete fucking waste of everyone's time
But there are retards who browse the net AND click ads and buy shit otherwise it wouldn't exist

>>19169965
Not only that but most of the time it's shit like ABU DHABI LLC or something, and I don't even know what the fuck that is. It's just some rich Arab paying to put an eyesore on my screen to flex to other rich Arabs.

>>19169955
SEO SEO SEO
Sashit Entitlement Optimisation

>>19169965
It actually amazed me when I figured out that most people aged 15-25 don't know how to use adblock/ublock on anything and always browse the web literally fucking rawdogging it
t. 30 year old boomer who hates ads on anything

>>19169971
Most gen z don't even know how to use computers it's all touch screen faggotry for them

>>19169971
you are a literal thief. hopefully you will be sent to prison with the rest of scumbags who believe they deserve everything for free

>>19169979
I think it's what made that generation, and younger ones, so tech retarded. They didn't start with a shitty pc, they started with android/ios tablets/phones. You can't dig around as much as you could in the older windows too.

>>19169981
Next time you drive past a billboard, close your eyes. It's literally stealing to not look at it.

>>19169981
What am I stealing when I'm using adblock to not see ads that wouldn't influence my buying habits anyway?
You feelin alright anon?

>>19169971
are their PCs just filled with viruses? that's fucking hilarious

>>19169874
You underestimate how stupid and easily manipulated the general public is. If it didn't work, they wouldn't waste as much money as they do on it.

>>19169981
Good impression of a jew lol

>>19170009
Depends. Some of them for sure, but the current built-in antivirus in windows is enough to not fuck you over when you accidentally click one ad. Most of those youngsters usually don't go beyond the safe sites of the "big web" so the risk of them getting some shit is smaller, too.
Until they see some funny item they can order online from a shady site and enter all their data there
Also, young people don't know how to pirate shit, kek

>>19169718
Looks messy.
It's visual noise that distracts from the action and makes moves look worse due to contrast changes.
Also a dark mat and darker logos hide blood. It introduces the possibility that the cleanup crew misses a spot and someone gets another one of those lovely illnesses from bumping in the ring.
No, the logos don't make the show look more serious. If anything they show off how fake and staged it all is.

>>19169776
They don't do it to draw a house for their own products.
There are guys working in those companies, let's say they're manager-type people, and they want to leave an impact on the world.
They wanna be the one to say "hey see that there? I made it happen, that happened because of me, I got that done".
Corporate branding is just one way for them to do this.
"Look at that, see the SlimJim logo there boss? I made that happen, we got our company to participate in this event because of me, I put us on the map, so hand me that promotion."

They're self-marks who wanna show off whet they can achieve, and wanna be part of things greater than themselves because they don't respect that they're greater than anything they work on.

>>19169872
Guessing you have no internal monologue?

uff should bring back the ads on the shorts

>>19169675 (OP)
its only theater nerds who like to pretend wrestling is sacred and cinema and what not who whine about this, ad breaks I can understand since you lose time because of them, ads on the mat and ring changes nothing. You guys gotta remind yourself that pro wrestling was a circus act and for redneck hicks, its trashy entertainment and that's all it'll ever be.

>>19169675 (OP)
it's fitting, vince disregarded his father's wishes by leaving the NWA and killing the territory system.

>>19170884
>imagine someone watching wwe for the first time and you're already fuming about aew
in english this time?

>>19170923
im a redneck hick and i hate ads, that's why i use multiple ad blockers to make sure i never have to see that garbage. of course, avoiding WWE helps with that too.

kwab

>>19169872
Are you seriously trying to justify the existence of ads? Holy fuck dude we are so far gone

>>19170965
True. Now it's his turn, except this time, he's not dead.

>>19169902
>thinks the comments and reviews and shit he sees online are not planted
nice to live in such obliviousness. You're not just seeing shit at random.

>>19171815
You're just realizing people have no scruples anymore. kek. How do you think we got here? People will do anything for a buck. They are desperate and broken.

Too much blood on the canvas for it to be WWE

>>19172025
I honestly barely notice them in WWE. I think it's just an autism thing, one of the symptoms is focusing on details that don't bother normal people and having meltdowns over them

>>19169675 (OP)
Nigger, why do you care?

>>19169675 (OP)
With jews, you make a lot of money. but you lose yourself

>>19170739
kek I do miss people having their own attire though

>>19169675 (OP)
couldn't care less, there's tons of ads in literally every popular sport

>>19172500
Only very recently has this become a thing in most sports and people fucking HATE IT

also it gets worse every year and people hate it more every year

>>19172170
Yes, you're definitely autistic if you want ads plastered all over everything you see constantly.

>>19169718
It's bad when WWE does it

>>19169761
I wish. At least then we'd have a decent President.

>>19170141
Full Gear is literally sponsored by DC.

Blood & Guts was sponsored by the Red Cross.

>>19173629
NJPW does this to survive, doesn't run a weekly TV show with advertisers, doesn't have a billion dollar TV contract, etc, etc

but to your point, no, I don't like it there either

>>19173629
nigga is that fucking CODY? You couldn't have pulled up an image from this decade?

>>19173652
even wwe was close to going bankrupt not that long ago and had to sign a deal with the saudis to stay afloat, following this the company was sold to tko, the parent company of ufc which is seriously struggling and had to move away from the ppv model because nobody was buying them. WWE is the only profitable enterprise they have right now which they had to spend a lot of money for and go into debt to acquire, accompany this information with the fact that all boom periods in wrestling are followed by it almost dying and we just had a boom period so you can guess what follows. Now explain to me why they shouldn't try to get as many advertisers as they can.
