Look guys, as a lifetime fan of the product and wrestlers dating back to the Ag-Hall taping days some decades ago, I can tell you that not just is my stepfather insulted not just me, but my nephew. He's old enough to stay up till 1045 so it's no sweat. My stepfather felt insulted. I felt idiotic. My nephew was exhausted and sought sleep. What the **** is the current target audience? Does 9.99 equate to: Look it's so inexspensive we don't care. I honestly think that's the motif. No wonder Vince lost 350000000. Well in close I'll say I'll still keep tabs but man, that ppv just drilled in: 'THE MATCHES ARE AS CHEAP AS 9.99.' Gross.

He seldomly books what is logical and necessary unless given no other choice. |

I imagine Vince's breath is probably gross at times. Seems like it'd smell like Jack's Links and onions.
Get a Tic Tac Vince.

I don't think the 9.99 thing has much to do with the booking. And while wrestling pay-per-views are obscenely expensive, 9.99 a month for just wrestling is not super cheap, it's more than the 7.99 netflix streaming. I do like the 9.99 thing and think it's a good move and I buy it, but let's not blame it for any of the booking any way you look at it.
The booking was exactly the same in 2006 or 2007, dare I say worse than it is now at times. Now it's less horrific to pay for pay-per-views yes, that's a positive thing.

"I can't believe we lost to that guy!" - WCW If you watch the WWE Network, they'll be quick to tell you they lost because WCW was never, ever good and never had a chance of stopping the mighty McMahon family. |

Oh yeah. I've seen it. *when WCW tried to win the battle for wrestling supremacy*Vince: "THEY TRIED PUTTING MY FAMILY OUT OF BUSINESS!" *when asked about promotions WWE essentially killed, thus destroying the territories*Vince: "They all put themselves out of business by not being as savvy as us." |

It's like a bad fanfiction writer is in charge of WWE's storylines, except with no character development at all, and way more deus ex machinas.
