First time WWE did not sell out Chicago for a PPV in over a decade. Tickets were 90% sold before the main event was announced. You did forgot to mention the tickets were also a lot more expensive than usual and how often they go to Chicago. I won't be surprised 3 months from now there's a Raw or Smackdown in Chicago. And another one right before 2017 ends. Plus another PPV next year. This whole Jinder push is more of a play to India where they have lots of viewers but not a lot of merch buyers. In a few years WWE is going to make a serious play to China just like how Hollywood has been doing with China where China is expected to surpass America as the biggest movie box office by 2020.

To be honest, memes n jokes are at least fun. If one can't have fun discussing a morality play where people pretend to fight in their underwear, when can ya?

The people who get mad about Jinder are funnier than the people who get mad at Roman. Tbh there's prob a ton of crossover there.
Remember the thread where some guy said he wanted to punch Roman in the face? How long until someone here threatens Jinder with bodily harm?

The real funny thing is that every one of these anti-Jinder posts are basically the same post over and over. You could pretty effectively make a Bollywood Bingo card with the basic premises and reused phraseology and someone would win every time.

You're not saying anything you haven't said 200 times today.

Nobody wanted to watch Jinder ON Main Event so it's crazy he's now THE main event. You could debut Kenny Omega on Main Event and no one would watch it
Main Event exists outside of this dimensional plane of reality. can't blame Jinder for that

Funny, I figured Jinder would be "too Indian" for Vince's liking, or maybe that is why he is being pushed?

You're not saying anything you haven't said 200 times today. 1. This is a really baity post and the person wasn't even talking to you specifically, check the new Board Rule
2. It's not like the people who aren't fans of Jinder winning aren't as vocally upset about it as people who are saying they're either ok with it, happy, or waiting to see how it goes. It's been a two way street. I'm not going around going "Ok we get it you hate Jinder Mahal" either, so I wouldn't go around doing it to board members who are expressing their own thoughts either, because stuff like this, refer to the 1., is being cracked down on here. Much easier to ignore it.

I want a Jinder/Nakamura feud for the title.
With Jinder copying Nakamura's entrance.
The dude will instead be playing a tiny violin.
New boom period.

I don't see that as targeting, or baiting, as no one specific was named. I see it as an observation into how out of hand this is getting with some people.

Both of you knock it off. This thread isn't going that way again.

I believe India is the third most important market for WWE behind the US and UK. Not everything they do will be for us and I totally understand that. It's their business and they're trying to build it even more globally than it already is. The great thing about the network is they don't have to worry about a PPV buyrate anymore. You're not paying high prices to see a particular main event now. You're paying a monthly low flat rate for the WWE brand if you have the network. Lots of people are canceling their subscriptions so maybe this is another way of reaching out to appeal to that market more. Most fans don't find Mahal to be credible and WWE knows there are people who will watch to see him lose and they'll be happy when he does. That's why he's the heel in the scenario. India will just be thrilled that someone is representing them as the world champion. It's win win for them. I know it feels like a big loss or a questionable decision for a lot of fans here but like I said earlier it wasn't done for us. That's the way I see it anyway.
