It basically invalidates every single one of their other revenue streams except for maybe the TV deals. Like they don't even really have to do house shows and poo poo anymore if they didn't want to.

They make more for each blood money show than they have from the most profitable Wrestlemania in history.

I think allegedly the numbers I've heard thrown around are, what, $500 million at 2 shows a year for 10 years?

I've been trying to derive some minor pleasure from imagining how much they had to grit their teeth to start doing the "as good as if not better than Wrestlemania!" ads because pride is the only thing he gives any kind of a poo poo about

Shogi is completely beyond me but usually you can clear the challenges via replaying the easy starter game and just repeating the same strategy over and over. Mahjong is the one that always takes me the most time, I have played so much Mahjong and I still don't really understand how the gently caress it works :)

Shogi I managed to do okay on, but mahjong and koi-koi are loving beyond me and I also suck at the batting cages.

Chantix* will help you stop smoking! And the only side-effects are suicidal thoughts, nausea and severe skin rashes!




* All results that ended in less smoking also included counseling and therapy sessions.

It's 50% strategy and 50% gambling. Keeping a list of the possible hands really helps so that you can figure out what to build to from your starting hand.
