I honestly woke up to a lot of messages from Wrestling people pissed that Gabe is essentially stealing money with these shows. FloSlam paid WWN roughly $23,000 for those two shows under the contract they have.

I enjoyed the FIP show because I like garbage wrestling and I thought the Yehi title match was really fun but these were the first two Floslam shows I watched since subbing and its definitly not the best impression.

Who the hell negotiated a deal to pay $23,000 for two indy shows?

so gabe's getting approximately $700k a year from floslam if that math holds up using this: http://www.flosports.tv/flosports-announces-five-year-agreement-with-wwnlive-to-live-stream-all-events-on-floslam-tv/

or $287.50 per each person in that crowd over the weekend (couldn't have had more than 40 a night)

it's a good hustle imo

Evolve has two shows at the end of the month with Hero's farewell. So that something to look forward to.

Plus there's still plenty of back catalog stuff if that's your thing.

Got confirmation on confirmation that WWE hates FloSlam now.

The standard EVOLVE contract has an out clause for talent so WWE could clean out the roster if they wanted. Interesting times.
