that simply isn't true, hunter
I heard that TV accounted for 35 per cent of WWE's profits. I doubt Vince doesn't care about ratings but a decline in rating will make future TV deals more difficult to negotiate.

It means the know where their audience is at & are doing what they have to in order to reach them & maximize their exposure to the product.
I don't think ratings mean as much to them as it does to those networks and sponsors, who are panicking over cord-cutting right now, with the WWE network.
At the end of the day, all that matters is that you're making the most profit out of your business as possible so if TV doesn't pull it's weight in revenues anymore then it can become...

He's great but the joint manipulation just doesn't look convincing against bigger guys, ruins the suspension of disbelief a bit, if he roided up he'd go far with his charisma, managed by heel regal
One of the best.
Still he can grow a lot as a wrestler.

Nah.
I see technical wrestling not just as mat/hold-based styles, but getting the most out of every little movement. It just so happens that the best technical wrestlers bring that to the forefront through a mat/hold-based style.
Are they right?

Why is amateur wrestling real while pro wrestling is fake?
I dunno
its to do with wrestling as a spectator sport
professional wrestlers were people who made a salary by wrestling. a salary was only possible if it was worked

Because watching any of that shit is about entertainment of the audience, and Pro Wrestling appeals to a larger audience.

What went wrong for her?
Even TNA fans don't give a fuck about her. Which is a shame as she's one of the better wrestlers on the roster, both her finishers are great and has great promo skills.

So, MMA fags.... How does it feel now that It has finally been confirmed that wwe is the superior martial art?
Are you going to go to a wwe dojo to learn how to really fight?
This guy would like a second fight :^)

Slow down kid, if he can make it bast this master of the wwe style then he might get a shot

He'd need to beat a drug test first and he's not winning that fight.
Should he have been the new face of WWE?

I met Nash at an airport in Virginia back around 98-99. Didn't make a big deal out of it, just said what's up nash and we high fived, I feel the worse kind of fans of anything are the ones that beg for autographs or pictures unless you meet the person at an event specifically for that.
I did get a picture with Ted Dibiase when he spoke at a college in early 2000s, but he mainly talked religious stuff, although he did claim that Vince McMahon would regularly just give him wads of hundred dollar bills...

Is it possible to have a good Stephanie thread? Give me your best /asp
>>1455730
Jesus, insta boner right there.
Hello asp. Forgive for bad english. Iam a 19 year old student. I wrestle for 4 years in high school. I want to start doing grappling martial arts.
At first i decided on BJJ because its so popular in the US, but my friend told me to try judo instead because its more 'honorable' e.g its an olympic sport compared to wrestling on the mud invented in the brazilian slums/favelas and it has more venues & big name competitions as comparing to bjj that only has Metamoris
What do?
>>1413896 (OP)
He's right, Judo has better opportunities. I was under the impression that Judo was more popular in the US.
Judo focuses on stand up grappling and training, a lot more. It's more of a focus in competition. You train ground fighting grappling, more in training and practice.
But it's still focused on stand up, more so than BJJ.
y'all niggas trollin.
But whatever. Grapple thread!
Why do people always talk about "politics" in BJJ? Like even in small local clubs people will say "x hasn't happened yet because of politics" or stuff about changing clubs etc.
What's the deal? BJJ seems like a cool art to learn but I don't want to get involved if everyone is carrying on like a bunch of high school girls.
Finish what you started. Stick with bjj, but know that eventually you will cross train judo. They are complimentary, so don't rule one out because you choose the other.
