In that case I can't begin to imagine what grounds WWE will try to claim they have for it cause as far as I know they've never used it for anything

My guess is a combination of people who wanted to be vindictive and people who didnt know the term was being used already I have a flier for Effy's brunch that's nearly a year old and it says GCW The Collective right on it so good luck wwe

I thought they were calling Sami, Cesaro and Nakamura "the collective" for a week or two?

I swear the wwe thread teaches me more about US politics than the news. From last page, but that Becky Lynch cowing to Steph thing I remember clips from the thread at the time and it still boggles my mind that they thought it’s a good idea. I know that is what happens when you have unbridled ego and surrounded by yes men but you would still think there was some voice inside that let them know nobody likes or respects the guy cowering to the boss.

WWE management is basically obsessed with the latter and has no idea why the attitude era worked.

It wasn't that long ago when Stephanie would randomly show up to humble any woman that managed to gain any kind of traction with the fans. I'll never forget when AJ was on her long run with the diva's title and Steph came out and buried her for no reason and with no payoff.

AJ Styles on the streaming situation in WWE: “If there’s an opportunity to pay back that money, that we worked hard for it at different times, we probably should.” (8:30) https://youtube.com/watch?v=70uy2xpvP9s&feature=youtu.be Got this from reddit where nobody can fully agree on what AJ is saying but the consensus is that he is saying if talent has the chance to pay WWE back they should and that WWE is making talent pay them back for twitch funds made.

The only collective WWe needs is collective bargaining.

AJ also says that in a meeting between himself Vince Xavier and Sasha "it was determined that this is intellectual property" and then he motions around his face with a finger and says "this is." So he fully believes WWE owns his entire face regardless of what name he is under, be it AJ, Allan or whatever else.

Listening to him talk about it, he's not an idiot but might be a coward. It doesn't have the energy of someone who really believes what they're saying. I mean, he's a huge loving idiot but not so dumb to not realize he's getting robbed.

I'm assuming Sasha is gonna be back for the next season of The Mandalorian, and that she has SAG membership now, so I hope she tells Vince to go piss up a rope.

maaaybe you could argue that a performer's outfit is wwe intellectual property, and maybe stretch that to hair and makeup, or a catchphrase, but to extend that to a person's visage is laughable. there has to be something intrinsically human that existed before they joined wwe.

If everyone pays WWE back I will laugh really hard at these losers. You can't have any sympathy for them if this is true, they sat down with Vince and said "yes sir, you own us, you deserve our money."
