Wrasslin would crawl out of the hole its in and once again be back in the mainstream
Vince can't retire soon enough
Triple H is the one throwing deals at the indy wrestlers you hate, and you think he has any interest in making wrestling mainstream?
NXT is the only example of what Triple H wants in a wrestling product, and what NXT is is a return to a simplified, niche product that first placates it's core audience but is branded and delivered in a clean, crisp manner that makes it accessible to new viewers. He also wants seems to want the WWE not to be a gigantic international enterainment company, but instead minimize overhead while expanding outreach by returning to a territorial system (as seen by NXT, deals with WWN, Cruiserweight Tournament, UK tournament etc). He seems realistic in understanding the days of wrestling competing with the major sports are not only over, but unnecessary.
Wrestling is an industry in and of itself, and if the WWE can monopolize it, it can sustain itself forever without being reliant on exterior forces.
If Trips took over tomorrow what would we see? A full speed push to make the Network the, and the only, platform for wrestling content the world over.
NJPW sees it, too, and what's why they're not playing ball with the WWE at all. Streaming is the next great war in wrestling, like Monday night and the territories, were.
