Yes!!! Can't wait for lawrence of botchamania 3
Also : If you still decide to only support WWE and hate other promotions, I seriously doubt any argument that you can throw at me in favor of this company.

I mean they went last time after the entire shitstorm going on surrounding the country at the time... and suffered like no actual consequences... why wouldn't they continue to honor the deal?

calling it now - Triple H vs Batista not sure how bad Hunter's injury was at Crown Jewel, so could be way off 0% chance. Read Batista's Twitter. Saudi Arabia's not a place he'd go.

Considering how WTF these shows seem now, imagine how surreal they're going to be in 30 years or so.
The length of the deal means we're getting a lot of them. We'll have the prime WWE timeline, then some kind of deranged alternate universe sausage-party timeline with green belts and unretired old dudes, whose greatest warrior is a middle-aged sneaker aficionado.

Surely their most popular superstar will be able to compete.

This was not the birthday present I asked for...
I just hope it's like how Crown Jewel looked on paper, only not terrible.

And, for the most part, they’ll come away none the worse for wear. Because all stuff like this does, is reinforce what most main stream outlets already think. And that’s that WWE is a trashy company, doing trashy things. And when you take shit like this into account, it’s hard to say that they’re wrong.

Guess we know Terry's next appearance. As with the last one, I'm not watching this show. Who knows what buffoonery will come from it. I can't believe Terry Taylor is gonna be sent to bargain with Mohammad bin Salman to calm him down when he finds out they can't book Bam Bam Bigelow for logistical reasons. So that's why Corbin wants to get the head tattoo. They'll never know the difference

So I guess WWE's new scheme is to make their core fanbase feel insanely uncomfortable twice a year for the next 10. Let's see how this works out

Disappointed? Disgusted? Cancel your network subscription and don’t buy any WWE products. Don’t give the WWE any of your money. If you continue to then it clearly doesn’t bother you that badly. As fans we can only really fight with our wallets. I haven’t given the WWE a dime in a long time. As a lifelong wrestling fan I still follow the news and watch a little bit of a Raw or Smackdown from time to time but I just can’t be fully invested anymore. It’s just not entertaining enough to me. As a fan I could only take so much disappointment. There are far better alternatives to me in terms of my time, my money and for my own personal happiness. I’m not even talking just wrestling content either. You are free to do what makes you happy or find something that does. I don’t blame anyone for losing interest in WWE at this point.

Also I just have to stress and repeat this: WWE's shareholders in shareholder calls are not allowed to know any details of this deal. The company is under such strict NDAs as to what is involved in this deal for money and other side elements that they are not allowed to disclose information to the people who own parts of the company. This is madness.

It’s actually brilliant: we don’t need military action or economic sanctions against the Saudis. Repeatedly sending them bad wrestling is how America voices its disapproval.
