Is it true you reported Austin Theory was released?
No, I absolutely did not report that.
Is WWE hopping networks with each renewal period great business, or could they be underperforming from the perspectives from the networks, not receiving favorable renewal offers? Thus, leading WWE to find new homes?
We are told Peacock had the option to match WWE's ESPN offer and thus, retain them. They opted not to do so. So, you can't blame WWE for not taking less money. Their lone responsibility and goal is to make their stockholders happy, and by getting larger rights fees, they will do that. Nothing else is as important, so hopping they will go.
Is Shane McMahon an officer with TKO or WWE?
No.
I saw WWE is traveling overseas next week. How are they doing an entire tour without any of the top champions, plus not using the top European stars like Drew and GUNTHER? I thought HHH was a great booker? What the hell?
I don't understand that one either. GUNTHER is hurt, so it makes sense he's off. But, to not have Cody and/or Seth is weird. I know Rollins was originally advertised for the tour, so no reason why he's not going. Drew not being on the tour makes little sense to me, either. They are lucky CM Punk is on it. I know HHH gets all these great compliments for his booking but you look at the tour and have to scratch your head at how it's being put together. I guess it's not as bad as claiming the John Cena heel turn was this major groundbreaking thing and then giving up on it a few months later with absolutely no storyline closure. You can't hit all the balls pitched at you.
Looking back, in your opinion what was the biggest drawing ECW match? Like the equivalent of Andre vs. Hogan at Wrestlemania 3. Also, what ECW match would you say is the pinnacle of their craft? Like the Steamboat-Flair or Shawn-Bret (or whatever you see as the best) of ECW.
The best drawing feud in ECW history in terms of tickets sold was The Dudley Boyz vs. Tommy Dreamer, Sandman, Spike Dudley, New Jack, etc. after the Dudleys broke Beulah's neck in 1998. 1998 was the best year for ECW, financially. To me, artistically, the best era of ECW was February 1994-April 1997. The pinnacle of the company from a "pure pro wrestling" standpoint was easily the Eddy Guerrero vs. Dean Malenko feud especially since everyone has tried to pay tribute to or invoke it in some way since.
