What if I have Peacock for free? You’re still contributing to co-signing Vince. You’re part of the inflated numbers they use to get another massive deal that keeps them from having to actually listen to the audience, especially if the free version has ads to watch. Let people watch what they want to watch, Mr. No!

Not all that often to be honest. Since that is a yes, you are contributing as subscriber viewership and that will help them in future negotiations

I do understand feeling deflated, because I’m starting to feel that too. Because despite all the shit WWE has pulled, and all the shit they pulled on Cody….he comes crawling back. They all do. Even Bret Hart came back. It’s like, no matter what WWE does, it’s all okay I’m the end and they get to be this huge company and nothing ever changes. So yeah, of course Vince has no reason to change. It really is crazy that anyone of any kind of name value always returns no matter how much bad blood there was. Savage was probably the exception but I think even he may have been less than a year away from returning for a Hall of Fame spot. He was slowly starting to do things for the video games and stuff a few months before his death. Bret is the big one. How do you go back after the double whammy of Montreal and the way his brother died. Sammartino. Warrior. Ventura. Jarrett. Hogan. Lesnar. Mickie recently. If Cody returns that goes beyond even being just a wrestler, he was an exec and literally helped found a new company and even he might be back (Jarrett did too but TNA was nowhere near as successful as AEW). Austin after walking out what, 2-3 times? Rock who was an actual celebrity and didn't need wrestling still returned. Look at the shit CM Punk dealt with and even he said a year or two ago he was open to a return if the money was right. Despite his latest controversy Jeff will probably be back for a Hall of Fame spot eventually. So will Jericho. I don't know if it'll be in 3 years, 5 years or 10 years but Moxley will be back for a Shield nostalgia tour. I laugh when people say definitively oh so and so is different though and they'll never return. The only people who you can actually rule out completely are people who aren't big enough names to make it worthwhile bothering to reconcile with.

The only people who you can actually rule out completely are people who aren't big enough names to make it worthwhile bothering to reconcile with. I guess the meme of Vince’s “Jedi mind tricks” is true. Also, money is the real medication that cures cancer in this case. And yeah, Bret is definitely the big one, not just for a Hall of fame but an actual run as an on screen character. And at the time that was super exciting. And no matter how shit the WWE had been or is now, they always bring that one super exciting aspect back and everyone gets way too over excited like it’s the next big thing that’s going to shake up the monotony. But it ALWAYS sucks in the end and fans are always left stunned on why it ended up so disappointing. In 2010 it was Bret Hart. Now in 2022 it’s Cody Rhodes. Yeah, it’s gonna be exciting for a little. But then they are either going to book him horribly, or they will push him to the moon and fans will turn on him. And then we are back to square one. I’m not falling for it again.

Reality is a bit much sometimes Look, even if I can’t stand the company and have no earthly idea why anyone would watch it, you shouldn’t tell people what to watch. It’s why there are choices and the people who watch make that choice.

If you are paying for any WWE products or services you are co-signing Vince’s opinion. Enjoy! Well I have peacock and use the WWE network on it ,so I guess, according to you, that makes me a horrible person because Vince bad! (Which the story has been confirmed bullshit anyways)
