Friend and friends, I am so excited to have this announced shortly whenever AEW announces their second show and the day and time for it each week. This will be quality programming I have no doubts. None whatsoever! https://twitter.com/seanrosssapp/status/1311704802091577347?s=21

I saw that! Yeah, didn’t have a choice I’m guessing. Such is life with the E. https://twitter.com/seanrosssapp/status/1311795487251591168?s=21 drat, can’t believe this ethical place really is doing this I am shocked. A company ruled by its politics I love it.

The only way anything changes is if people stop spending any money on them and stop watching. You gotta send a message by hitting them in their pocket books and in the areas they care about. Because this might as well be slavery when no other wrestling organizations are doing this poo poo. It’s gross.

https://mobile.twitter.com/AndrewYang/status/1311833995655753729 I want this company to burn. I swear, we need other companies to flourish so badly. We need better owners in wrestling. And the promotions to thrive. Thank god for AEW but we desperately need others to take off too.

ChrisBTY posted:Here's the thing; right now it seems like the only people who have to send WWE money are FOX and USA on their TV deals. Until those expire WWE is going to pile bank. Once those expire? Well we'll see where a 1.5-1.8 with a .nothing in the demo gets them. Probably more than we'd like. No doubt. You’re right on all this. I think the independent contractors would need to band together here I guess. That’s all I can think of. I would say “well Vince has to die” but we are just getting another version of him no matter who takes over. “The talent needs to bet on themselves more and demand change” but they don’t really have a voice. “But WWE is the dream for wrestlers and the only way and the viewers are indoctrinated to what was the only game in town for 21 years” but until other companies bring their action and sustainability (one company is in AEW and I think they have the best shot to stick around in a healthy fashion) then this will be tough. It’s gonna be a long road.

Raskolnikov38 posted:yeah the only pushback this is going to get is that trips is going to find it harder to sign indie darlings since WWE isn't the place you go for a paycheck anymore And this is when I’ll really be a judgmental dick is for indie talent AFTER THIS that still signs with them. They clearly have enough talent to run their show forever. Hell, 60 year Undertaker would come back and get a main event spot. They don’t need to sign anybody at all. But yeah, if you sign there now, you’re either just in their ideology like Braun Strowman or you really are a goddamn moron and the last thing I want to do is cheer on is that combo in 2020 and on. oldpainless posted:No one is gonna push back against Vince. No one else can be the tribal chief. No one is gonna take his place at the head of the table. But yeah, just do anything to say this isn’t right. They’re not going to release you. They own you so you won’t go to the competition now. That’s the entire plan in this cog.

Akileese posted:WWE have a roster that's a mix of complacent, bootlickers, and just happy to be there. They'll grumble, they'll be quoted anonymously as being very unhappy with this change, and maybe they'll even make a tweet of mild disgust! Bingo. Sucks, but it’s fact. There is a very very very small minority that I feel don’t align with this at all. Daniel Bryan comes to mind and that’s all I can think of. And even then, I may be wrong. I speculate a lot. I just feel he’s one of those “would love to leave OR SPEAK UP but can’t or just won’t and whatever let it ride.” More so, just to speak up and be a voice for the other side. That’s I think what I mean. Somebody needs to do it.

Do Seth and Braun and Ricochet have cameos? I ask only because I can see them bootlicking this move and saying it’s great even though they don’t have their own...but maybe they do have ones they use to connect with fans? If not, then lol, of course they don’t.

Eat My Fuc posted:I'm sorry but I can't think of the majority of the wrestlers of WWE in any kind of negative light about this. Sure there are some bootlicking assholes at the top of the card like Braun, but as someone whose industry was eradicated by COVID, I will never fault anyone for doing whatever it takes to keep a job right now. This is survival, and it isn't their fault. I'd love if they organized a walk out, a strike, or anything like it but bills keep coming and wrestling is such a niche thing it's not likely the populace will come out to support them. They are for the majority the victims here, in my mind it's not fair to judge the wrestlers for the most part. Good post. Can’t fault anything you said. Let me just add my piece and peace to this a la resigned to re-sign a point I must make. I don’t care this happened during COVID so you gotta do what you gotta do. I understand that point, but I’m talking about everything else not pandemic related. The upper management players have always silenced their performers and acted like they own them. This particular instance just so happened in a vulnerable position with a pandemic going on. There has been negative press after negative press after negative press with this company. It only lives because of its name value, its political roots and its die hard fans who simply don’t know how to quit. Addiction is tough. I understand that and my condolences go out to those who struggle. There was a time I sided with the talent. A very, very select few I still do. Basically, the ones who signed eons ago when there was no other company to work for. This industry was a monopoly and only last year finally saw an OPTION to perform their craft on TV. If you’re a talent who is a TV performer and you do this craft because you want to entertain millions, you only have two options. Two. You used to only have one. Impact and other promotions exist because well, you either aren’t ready for that or simply don’t want that. That’s extreme pressure and judgment and you gotta be ready and wanting it. Every. Single. Performer. Knows. Exactly. What. They. Are. Getting. Into. When. They. Sign. With. The. WWE. In. Its. Current. State. I can fault performers for years ago. I understand why they probably signed. But my point I have is that this isn’t some new issue either. This has been ongoing forever at this point and it got especially bad a few years ago as Vince really showed he isn’t mentally fit to run a company anymore. He’s out of touch with the times. We have a 70+ year old calling the shots for 20-40 year olds like he knows them. He promises a dream just based on the name “WWE” alone. This industry is desperate for change. It craves it and it needs it. It was destined to die off if no other company formed and thank god one did that has a chance to survive and even that isn’t guaranteed. There’s a chance this twitch and cameo ban doesn’t last and then people say, “See! Vince came to his senses it’s ok now!” It’s not OK because then it’ll be something else. The world has passed Vince by and he is going to kill his company when he dies too. And I say bring it on because maybe it’ll spawn a new company, lead by real leaders who want talent to thrive, employees to be happy and fair and just treatment to those who want to love their craft, show that love and be loved by not just their fans, but by all people who can classify this and appreciate this as a SPORT.

Sometimes it feels like a hostage situation where you can see out the window and you’re flagging for help or maybe you want to flag for help but you can’t. What if you’re seen? I just want somebody to stick up for this and say this ain’t right instead of “guess I gotta close this cameo now see ya!” Or “guess I gotta change my name here ok see ya!” They don’t need to quit, they can’t. They should, but they can’t. But they should be allowed to have a voice here and say this isn’t fair. It happens in other sports constantly. CONSTANTLY. I just want to know that my wrestlers I used to follow are not hostages. Among many, many other things but I gotta wrap this message up because I got a call for work now! And I must post. Edit: like the NFL, enough bitching about certain rules or things and then they have a chance for change. This stuff happening for WWE doesn’t even allow that discourse.

MassRafTer posted:Actually impressed that he made himself look even worse here, because now he's admitting something happened. That’s what the comments are saying too. Even from pro-WWE people. They really do just expect this to blow over or just to accept it happened and live with it. It’s so abusive to viewers, victims and to their own independent contractors who actually do care. I’m assuming most of them don’t, and welp, that should be different. Please for once in this company, let there be actual repercussions.

Isn’t there an old WWE ad they ran that went, “I’m not a wrestling fan, I’m a WWE fan.” Which basically seems spot on for these guys where I guess it’s illegal and against the law to talk about the world around it except for WWE. If it doesn’t exist in WWE’s universe, it isn’t real, which just blows my mind. Like, where is the country of WWE located and what kinds of jobs and hobbies exist to do there? Is there hiking? Please tell me there’s hiking. The population of 1.5 million has to do something besides WWEing right?!

I need WWE to counter every wrestling show. Do MLW, Impact, all the AEW shows, and maybe even counter their own shows too. If the wrestling is on TV, I need a WWE program to slot in against it. And then counter the counter. And the counter the counter OF the counter! It’s seamless.
