Had to update this thread...
We might have a new UUDD Champion in the Breeze/Yim match. Let's see what happens!!
Also the LRLR Title will now be the new IC Title.

They openly reference the events of the last week, but our boy is still here.
Even if they are a little unsure of what to call him now.

If he doesnt fancy wrestling elsewhere, he can likely get a Jessamyn Duke deal and stay on the channel.
But if he wants to wrestle, we've got about 12 more weeks before the 90 days are up and then he'll be gone

You gotta like how worried DaParty was when they saw Chugs rubbing his eyes. They were concerned he had some of the pepper on his skin.

Seriously, WWE, I know you lot have been f***ing up a lot…give Xavier his due. You can afford it, for Pete sake.
If he left tomorrow, he’ll have his pick of any hosting job in video games, never mind in wrestling. He hosted EA’s press conference this year, come on now!

He's set. I'm also guessing that's the same thing with their podcast as they've dropped repeats since September 27.

yeah, I'd give the UpUpDownDown crew whatever they wanted. New Day seem just like The Elite in that, they would stick together leave together. Especially since I know AEW would open the doors wide open for them. Not to mention, Creed has the G4 gig now. and as previously stated, you find a way to get rid of him either by your accord or his, and he's hosting so many events almost instantly.

Was wondering when the big ass elephant in the room was gonna make some noise in the the midst of WWE’s “we own you, don’t do shit that we can’t profit off of” power trip.

The weirder thing, for me anyway, is that business wise, UUDD is one of the things that’s kept them relevant. You think WWE themselves would have gotten the deals with Rocket League, Gears of War, Brawlhalla and a whole damn UNO set without UUDD? They barely got that one show deal with Coca-Cola.

Fightful posted an update and man, it's rough. Poor Xavier, wow.
We might need update the title with "Woods and others stop making content" or something like that.
Here's a summary.

nothing will probably come from this and WWE will probably just shut UUDD down but man it would be nice if this somehow ended the no third party crap

Jessamyn Duke did say on one of her streams a couple of weeks ago that something was going on, and that's why you hadn't seen any BRE content for awhile. No doubt she was talking about this.

So am I reading that right? WWE is looking at the money Xavier is making from his G4 stuff, a completely separate job from a completely separate company, and withholding that amount from his WWE pay, on the basis that it’s part of his downside? That seems incredibly illegal.

That seems incredibly illegal. No, it looks like the money Woods and others make from UUDD is applied to the downside. They're not taking his G4 money. - Fightful was told Woods sees little no additional money at all from UUDD and his hosting G4, UUDD is applied towards his downside guaranteed. The same applies to everybody else on UUDD.

I said this shit was gonna come to a head when I saw WWE was f***ing with Twitch and the Video Game stuff.
Woods doesn't need them. He can happily walk and get dozens of opportunities elsewhere. You can only push a man so much in wrestling while f***ing him over behind the scenes and this is an example.
WWE are this close to running New Day out of the f***ing company because of their own greed. It's sad to think even if they do that? It won't wake them up. It's the fact it's a possibility at all that's f***ed. They don't care about their talent... only themselves.

F***, man, just pay Xavier and others what they’re owed. It absolutely can’t be that much in the grand scheme of things.
Like I said, a lot of stuff happened with what they were doing on UUDD and you would have thought with Adam Cole being a figurehead at AEW Games right now, they’d want to at the very least want to rebuild that brand with the subscriber base that was built by their talent.
It’s not even like someone sold them UUDD, WWE created it. It’s their brand that they established. And what happened to that Twitch partnership? Did they get laughed out of Bezos’ office or something?
