I’ve said this before but it really isn’t difficult. And it especially isn’t difficult anymore, now that somebody else is gonna ultimately control/own WWE over Vince. There needs to be a huge social media following around the idea of boycotting Raw and Smackdown until they #RemoveVince or whatever. And then people actually need to commit by not tuning in so there’s a significant drop in ratings. (The same ratings that Ari touted on CNBC being up, which was obviously after HHH took over) Don't forget Vince got bows from the crowd last time he appeared. There's a large proportion that don't care.

posted in the sales thread but posting here as well Per Meltzer on WOL Triple H's role in creative is now basically busy work. Endeavor wanted Vince in charge and that's what's being done

I don't believe for one minute that Trips has ever had full control of creative on the main roster. I think he got to do a little more than usual while Vince was distracted, but Vince did, does, and will have final say until the day he croaks. Agreed almost completely...it was even more ridiculous when it got to the point where the IWC was praising every good decision as Hunter's and every bad one as Vince's.

I feel like all wrestling journalists are unserious, so idk who or what to believe I would believe SRS a million times before believing that other site once. YMMV on Sapp and his social media presence (esp. when talking back to people shitting on him), but he’s generally very reliable when it comes to scoops.

LA Knight not being at Mania after weeks of "you can't have a LA Wrestlemania without LA Knight" promos leading up to it makes sense now.

I know many of the wrestlers are most frustrated with Vince being involved and feeling lied to (which I believe they were) but I am curious if any feel this may be a straw that breaks the camel's back situation and wonder if some feel they've been lied to even when Vince was gone?

Dakota Kai just posted something on Twitter that might be telling.

I knew it! I knew something was up with wrestlemania night 2 and I vowed not watch raw because I was sure Vince was back in charge
Back in the Vince thread I said “just give me until wrestlemania and then I’ll be good and I can just leave for AEW if Vince gonna Vince” but you couldn’t let me at least give me us a cody win to cap off the H era?

I feel like all wrestling journalists are unserious, so idk who or what to believe XeroNews is an aggressive bullshit factory that if not run by then at least employs insane bigots who have been banned as sources from here for jsut making things up non-stop. Whether you see SRS or Meltzer or such as credible is a personal decision, but you can trust consistently that Xero News has no scoops and is objectively untrustworthy because they just make shit up all the time.

Multiple Talent said they'd leave if Vince came back.
Well, time to put your money where your mouth is.

Vince is essentially one of the new owners so that report is #1 bullshit from jump street.

i'm obviously upset he is back but i really feel an uncomfortable sense of dread for those trips brought back more than anything
most of those people are for sure not going to be picked up by AEW

Yeah i don't believe he is a genuinely decent person without an agenda due to his personal social media responses but I do believe he believes what he reports to be accurate.

If Endeavor was considered the "better" choice to sell to vs the Saudis and this is the fallout, I shudder to think what the fallout would've been had Vince actually sold WWE to the Saudis.

This hurts, my passion for Wrestling came back fully after Vince "retired". Now it looks like it's going to go again.
