Pretty soon wrestlers would have to play their own enterance music with something like a ukelele or a cheap small electric keyboard while walking to the ring. And they would have to shout out their promos because they have no mics.

pretty soon every show will look like it's tribute to the troops. except it's outside a shoe shop. and there's no audience. and there's no ring. If you have Edge and Mike Knox wrestle, people will think it's Bum Fights.

The WWE is so cheap...
...the wrestlers have to sing their own theme songs.
...instead of having Titantrons, the wrestlers have to hold piece of papers with their names on it.
...they've replaced the ring ropes with Twizzlers.
...they've fired the writing staff and replaced them with outdated mannequins from Sears.
...the steel cage has been replaced with a kennel cage door they put over the cameras to fool the viewers at home thinking the match is in a cage.
...future RAW episodes will only air on radio.
And here's the obligatory Gillberg entrance video

As a budget saving technique, they should do a "Reverse Million Dollar Mania". Vince calls people at random, and forces them to give various amounts of money to WWE!
Vince: OK, let's call Steve from Rutland, Vt.
(dials phone)
* Cue ring tone with American Males theme song *
Steve: Hello?
Vince: Hello, I'm Vince McMahon dammit!! Do you know the password?
Steve: Respect?
Vince: Actually no, that's the password for TNA's latest drinking game. Our password is Snitsky. But what the hell, you win!
Steve: Wooooo!
Vince: You now owe WWE the sum of $25,000. We will be sending Barry Darsow to your house to collect.

- To save money on hiring commentators, included in the price of admission is the opportunity to actually commentate the show. That way there can be heel commentators.... sort of.
- Instead of using the costly WWE title belts, they will now begin to signify that someone is a champion by using a piece of laminated paper with the word CHAMPION written on it.
- HHH will now have to pretend there is water in his bottle.
- Everybody will now adopt the 'Undertaker' entrance, as it saves money on lighting.
- WWE has now hired the ROH production crew to produce their shows.
- There will be an increase in empty parking lot matches.

To save on contract costs, the part of Batista will now be played by Don Rickles.
Additionally, all of The Undertaker's matches will consist of archive footage of various matches throughout the years. It will be played on the titantron while his opponents pantomime their portion.

I hear they will be using recycled ring gear now, it costs too much to make new ones.

*waits for Batista's machine gun intro to turn into a .22 single shot intro" Or he just makes 2 short hand gestures and says *pew pew* I would mark like a little girl at a Hanna Montana concert if he started doing that. At the very least, "The Animal" Haastista needs to do it at some point.

I would like to see a WWE performer do "pyoo pyoo" effects, because it might mean that Sara Del Rey works there.
