GOT Wrestle Fest Fan Thread

No firefly funhouse this week?
Read through what happened. What is the reasoning for Undertaker helping Roman?

Cos reasons

 

[Sliced Bread]

I think they're trying to distance him from that Goldberg fiasco

Roman to the rescue..

Cos reasons

Thought as much haha

Supposedly Raw only sold around 3500 tickets, going downhill fast if that's the case

WWE is beyond trash that this point. Its worse then WCW ever was, even under Russo at this point (at least that trash had comedy value!). There's no excuse for how bad its got.

They just need to end the brand split right now. Its beyond pointless. The only way a concept like a brand split can ever work is if the two shows feel diffent and at least somewhat unique. They don't.

These "super shows" that they're relying on to prop them up right now wont last forever. The Saudi officials will lose interest in the end.

I can see PPV's finally happening over here in the very near future as WWE go further and further into panic mode without ever really searching for a proper long term solution.

As in they'll hold events here or they'll make it so you can't get PPV's on the UK version of the Network and have to pay for them on BT?

That they'll hold PPV events over here. It's only a matter of time, no doubt they'll start with mediocre filler PPV's but I can see a Summerslam or Survivor Series being held here eventually.

To be fair, ticket sales are hardly amazing here either

They'd do well with one Summer Slam at maybe the Principality or something, but it'd be downhill from there

They aren't amazing for RAW and Smackdown, but a PPV? Even a filler one would sell-out here.

They have a novelty factor, yeah it would disappear sooner rather then later and its hardly a good long-term solution but WWE don't do long-term these days. They could make that work for at least a couple of years.

Smackdown had 1500 in attendance on Tuesday. Oof.

Now, hell has frozen over.

Jesus Christ that's pure desperation getting those 2 to run the shows.

Hopefully they can take some of the power away from Vince though which will help but alas Vince will still have final say on everything I think.

I think this is a real positive. If anything, it'll get a bit crazier.

Can't wait until they hire Sal from impractical jokers and put the title on him

Difficult to say if its a real creative shake-up or just a cheap way to keep both guys away from any potential AEW deal. Either way I'm shocked, thought it was a joke when i first read about it. Just goes to show how desperate they're getting now.

But yeah, Vince isn't concerned about AEW at all is he?! lol

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

Bichoff and Hayman in WWE management is actually way more shocking, surprising and interesting then anything WWE have on tv right now, even Russo wouldn't write a storyline this unbelievable.........

Interesting parts:

We are told that they will be overseeing all aspects of their individual series, answering directly to Vince McMahon. They are now the top of the pyramid, respectively, for Raw and Smackdown but obviously McMahon will always have the last say. One WWE source compared their roles to Paul Levesque's in NXT in that they will be in charge, but it's still Vince's company.
