I just hope and pray that "business picks up", in the words of the great J. In closing, I just would like to say that WWE has been a part of my life for over 20 years, and I am never ready to let it go or even considering not keeping up with it anymore. I would just like to be able to talk about it the next day because it was so exciting rather than dread watching it the following week.
I miss a lot of things about WWE. What went wrong? Is it me, or is the product directed towards a much younger age group that will tolerate all of the madness? Enjoy our content?

I mean, I find this 'Stand Up for WWE' a crock of shit to be honest, how about investing time in the future stars of the company and advancing the quality of the program instead of wasting it on shit like this?
Of course, this latest crap isn't so much about sticking it to the 'WWE haters' as it is about offering opposition to those who have criticised Linda McMahon and her association with pro-wrestling and her aptitude to be involved in politics.
The sooner the 2nd November comes and goes the better as far as I'm concerned. Good grief Kliq4Life likes this. Joined: Jun 11, Messages: 58 Likes Received: 2.

The politicians aren't talking bad about me, they are talking bad about WWE, and rightfully so. WWE keeps saying they are lying but have no rebuttals. Because there aren't any. When Linda first announced her campaign, all I could think of is "Good luck with that. Joined: Sep 21, Messages: 10 Likes Received: 3. Joined: Jul 16, Messages: Likes Received: The criticism that's sticking against WWE has nothing to do with all of the positives WWE touted, nor did WWE's video counter any of the more serious points made against WWE in a variety of areas be it the whole lack of an off-season, the slow adoption of a concussion and wellness policy, the off-and-on drug policy's lack of true independence and transparency, the non-PG era with a lot of not-so-smile-inducing segments for families, the bullying of people who take reasonable stands against their policies or fight back against injustices, and many other traits that critics point out which WWE didn't address.
All WWE did in the promo was talk about how popular they are and which charitable organizations they work with. No one is criticizing their work with the troops or the make-a-wish foundation, so showing video of that proves nothing. The video did nothing to address any legitimate criticisms against WWE over the years. Dowdsy McDowds likes this.

The promo was more or less him begging for people to keep watching and defend his company. The fact is Linda ran a multi-billion dollar company well. It shouldn't matter if it's a wrestling company or fast-food chain. Yes Vince should defend his wife, but I didn't get that from the promo. It was more about WWE then Linda. The ratings have been droping but not all that much. Vince came off like he was in a state of panic.
Makes me wonder if there is more to all this. Vince has only done things like this in the past when his company was in real trouble mid 90's. So I have to ask if there is something else going on. About 2 people actually posted a reply that had anything to do with what I discussed in the original post. This thread is about the wwe's main age demographic in relation to its current television rating. Some people state that they are catering to a new audience because the attitude era fans are either leaving or gone.
Raw averages around 4 million viewers a week. If they are indeed over 18 there is a good chance they sat and watched during the attitude era too. Many viewers from that period might have left but a significant amount of new viewers has not poured in. So that argument that someone posted before is now dead. My problem with this is that if such a large portion of your audience is basically considered adults then why is the wwe so pg.
Could adults not handle edgier and more controversial story lines and actions. Im not saying bring back chair shots and blading but if a guy has a scrape dont stop the match. No matter how you look at it, Linda will just be looked upon as either a person who has partaken in wrestling storylines or the wife of Vince McMahon.
An obviously bad publicity in the media is not something you want to have while running for office. As I stated before, I wrote a list that contained more cons then pros. Which caused me to wonder if Linda even has a chance in running for office, yet winning?
Now before you go off and make your video, post your tweet, edit your status or write something on WWE. Which is just stating the obvious; political shows on TV and radio will laugh at it and just continue to make a mockery out of the WWE.
