I'm retired from interacting with 99% of this board and really IWC as a whole. The only exception being pics threads. It's made viewing wrestling a lot better not being part of echo chambers or reading shyt daily by people with mental needs. But when I saw the news I had to come here and...y'all didn't disappoint
Wrestling fans have this innate ability, whether here, Reddit, Twitter, doesn't matter where, to be completely and totally wrong on anything and everything outside the bubble of wrestling. Including the business of wrestling. Then double down on the mental gymnastics and conclusions that only ever existed in their heads. It's like you all have opinions you think these company need to follow on TV weekly, now you know better than execs handling billion dollar grossing entities for a living. It isn't just a TKO, you all did the same thing with Vince.
This guy and a lot of the rest of you thinking you have one brain cell to offer Nick Khan about his handlings is wild. IWC said the Netflix deal was bad, they'll cancel the deal because of Vince, other shyt you came up with hyperventilating off scenarios you made up. Raw is consistently a top viewed program for Netflix. Let the IWC tell it, wrestling fans have been priced out, they're still selling out venues and hitting near sellouts. At the very least the shows are fuller than 2019 while costing more, while a depression is coming off of Trump. How can Nick Khan be wrong about so much and the IWC be right about it all, yet Nick's the one signing these billion dollar deals and the price structures so far are working, while IWC ain't been asked to sign shyt. They just keep waiting for the next boogeyman that'll "sink the ship". Thought that kind of shyt was supposed to stop with Vince...yeah
Anyway man, carry on. I just thought it was crazy reading comments here and elsewhere about things nobody outside Nick/Ari have the data or enough insight to be having opinions on, having opinions. Not even defending money hunger, if the shyt ain't for you cool then let them know and not watch. Let the ones that actually have an idea about 2030 in 2025 worry about what things look like in 5 years.
If things don't work they'll feel it. They seem to think they'll be fine and if I'm honest they most likely will be. People in the "just watching WWE" category on Netflix & Peacock are most likely few and between. This is aimed to hook more casuals by putting wrestling right next to real sports and further legitimize wrestling as sport instead of just the carnival with steel chairs. But until then when things stop working, take the rest of the summer off and kick your feet up tiger.
