I'm torn, because I find that comment legitimately amusing but "Brass Ring," is rapidly becoming my most hated WWE thing ever.

Is the typical NXT deal still $500 a week?

My understanding is that entry level NXT guys who aren't getting on TV are earning around that. Most people who are on TV are earning 50-75k and the A-1 guys and the dudes who were specifically courted from the indies are on 100k. Also that 100k is basically the ceiling in NXT. I assume Zayn, Balor, Itami are all on 100 with Owens either there or not far behind.

This is probably a pay cut for Owens right now, if only because he's no longer selling his own merch.

Or maybe he believes what he's doing is actually right and he's taking shots at Vince? TBH I find that way easier to believe than it being some massive work given that A) HHH is in charge of NXT and it's consistently the best thing WWE puts out, B) Meltzer himself has reported that HHH and Vince are sometimes at odds, C) You have poo poo like the conference call about NXT where HHH clearly expressed displeasure about how Charlotte was treated in her debut, and D) HHH actually loves wrestling, unlike Vince who hates it.

Holy poo poo :stare: I knew Owens did well on the Indys, but 100K and that's considered a paycut? That's insane.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure he was already making best-of-the-indies money before signing up, with merchandise sales at the show being a significant portion of this. He talked about being comfortable, but wanted to make serious money while he was able for his family. I respect the gently caress out of the dude, having been in the position in the past where I had to work interstate and briefly overseas from my family for a while. I may have to do it again soon depending on China's appetite for copper concentrate in the next 12 months or so. It loving sucks, but you do it because in the long run it's the best move for your family's future.

They're not mutually exclusive. We're just pointing out that Triple H has gotten very good at Twitter, and while he is obviously doing great things in NXT, we do have to take into account that this is Triple H.

Agreed. I'm sure Triple H is genuinely proud of the work he's doing but that doesn't mean he's above a bit of PR geared towards smarks (nor do I blame him for doing so in his position).

From all accounts Vince is firmly entrenched in an '80s action hero mindset of masculine coolness so I'm sure he loves the Conan-esque stuff.
