Wrestling Thread 9: Lets go Chuck Taylor, you're the best wrestler in the world • Page 333

Yeah they’re gonna lose a lot of viewers for that one. Making it real easy to stop watching lately

 

I think they also announced in this that they’re fully integrating Hulu into Disney+

 

And no longer reporting subscriber numbers.

 

There is no world in which I pay Disney any amount of money for an ESPN streaming service.

 

Nope

 

People have been too used to paying 10 bucks or less a month for WWE PLEs

 

my perfect product but it's only worth $10 a month

 

$30 a month lmao

 

Not surprised about MVP having heat

he hates speed ball id guess bc of that segment a few weeks ago where they kept beating down jet speed and they kept getting up, my guess is that was NOT supposed to go as long and speed ball was supposed to sell more or somethin who knows

I could see Shelton staying and MVP getting sent off into the sunset which I wouldn’t mind personally, he’s entertaining but that fool couldn’t put over someone on the mic if his life depended on it

 

dont pretty much none of us watch wwe? who fuckin cares?

 

Shrek there was a ton of WWE posting this weekend lol

 

yeah, I think it's still a valuable piece of news/information around here, especially since their PLE's have been on a much cheaper streamer for awhile now.

 

I'd say many people in here have been watching the PLEs so yeah, it does matter.

Will it matter much going forward? Hopefully not.

 

this would be the perfect opportunity for tony khan to announce 20$ PPV prices going forward.

 

they're included in streamers a lot of us already pay for, i won't miss em. now i can just say i dont give em money without caveats because my $0.0003 from Poob won't go to them anymore.

baked.live and adblocker like anything else in the last 10 years

 

Some comments I saw

“$30.00 to watch events that can now accurately be described as 3 hour commercials with some breaks for wrestling.”


“Now they've divvied up the content everywhere. Some is on Youtube, some is on Peacock, some on Netflix. And the PLEs are riddled with literally more commercials than their TV shows. Every match is sponsored, and the ring looks like the side of a Formula One car. Ads. Ads everywhere.

And now they want me to go back and pay $30 a month. For a product absolutely riddled with ads. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.”

 

riddled with ads like it hasn’t been that way for 15+ years lol

 

It has but it really has gotten worse the last few years

 

Could see them making it more enticing.

UFC is announcing their new media deal soon. If UFC PPVs are included - it’s gonna sell like hotcakes.

If there’s some kind of NFL/CFB involvement then even more so.

If it’s JUST WWE then it’s fucking terrible.

 

The ring looking like a nascar just happened within the past 3 or so years tho

 

The MMA Draw reported this morning that basically the goal of TKO at this point is to have as many deals with a variety of companies as possible so no one else can. Makes sense and also incredibly capitalistic/evil.
