[MJ Truth]

Are there 50 million people that are not currently subscribed to Netflix that would jump in for wrestling ?!

Yes.

On the whole planet? Likely.

Also will help with churn…people that would otherwise cancel will stay subscribed for longer

This makes no sense... How is wrestling worth 500.000.000 per year in streaming rights ?!?!?!

It's not. Just like the film rights Netflix constantly overpays for aren't worth it. They're bleeding money while consolidating debt. And when the house of cards falls they'll be able to present a very attractive debt package for Amazon or Apple to purchase in 5-10 years.

I only want the old shyt.. I don’t watch new wrestling

Netflix is one of the only profitable streaming platforms. What are you talking about?

am i the only one who just has 1 streaming service a month, maybe 2? i run through MAX/Netflix/Hulu for a month, then switch it up. so im paying 16, maybe 20 something a month you really don't have to carry all these fukkin services at the same time

then i have the Tunein App, to listen to CNN for free a couple hours a day. tons of free documentaries on youtube

Further proof Coli nikkas don't go out in real life. Wrestling been hitting it's newfound stride this decade...Last time I went to a WWE event it was different races and walks of life out there. Seen alot of bad bytches, regular black folks, Latinos,kids, Every demo you can think of.

It's because this isn't just for the United States but what would normally be multiple smaller deals in international markets.

I was in Nepal at a Buddhist monastery in 2010 and the little monks (actually the full monastery but most of them were age 8-16) were watching bootleg wrestling dvds and said to me (actual quote) 'The Undertaker, very good, yes?'.
