VJeff posted:I really hope those wrestlers are doing some soul-searching right now. yea it feels like we make a lot of jokes about wrestlers being a part of a lovely brand like WWE acts like but this is probably something that should be a genuine line. Like at least before with doing a Saudi show the company line was 'look MBS is promising to be a reformer and we're trying to help open things up between our countries with entertainment' but...I mean it was bullshit before but this is just insane levels of 'this guy's an evil piece of poo poo'.

If anything Vince doubles down with propaganda in every segment of the show honestly at this point it's a win for taste if we can make it to the other end of this without a segment where Vince claims to have the journalist safe and sound only for some local jobber playing him to get jumped by...I dunno...the miz....

Minidust posted:WWE does care about PR a whole lot, as exhibited by them taking Moolah’s name off the Wrestlemania battle royal earlier this year. However that cost them zero dimes, so I’m sure it’s an apples and oranges case here :-/ yea see also: them breaking up with Hogan...for like a year or two... They're very PR careful when it costs them zero dollars. When they have to actually  they retreat into 'lol it's just wrasslin tho who cares'.

achillesforever6 posted:Honestly HHH is one of the more insidious ways at how WWE union busts because he acts all fatherly to NXT wrestlers that it makes them less likely to want to organize against the company for their own interests. yea he clearly knows 'nice old vet wrestler who takes you under his wing and helps you' is a WAY better image for new guys than Vince's bullshit and if he can make sure NXT results in people leaving thinking of their boss as their friend then he's safe from union threats for a whole generation of wrestlers.
