I can’t imagine it costs much.

Anthem: TNA is yours for a $20 Amazon gift card and two local movie tickets.

WWE: Preposterously high! Come back to the negotiating table when you have a more reasonable offer for us.
By far the most valuable thing they have are the tv time slots.

TNA name and IP has value but it’s name is associated with as much good as bad.

They own very little equipment as they rent virtually everything. They don’t even own a ring, for example.

The wrestler contracts, for all but a very select few, are short and pay per appearance, so basically those contracts are worthless.

Tape library, it has some value but very little. No one is even paying for the WWE library now. And the WWE Vault YouTube channel view counts are largely unremarkable with the vast majority over the last month failing to beat the view count for Lio Rush vs. El Clon from Ring of Honor that was uploaded 9 days ago. So why would anyone give anything particularly noteworthy to get the TNA library?

5 pm is a good start. More work needs to be done in the industry though. I want it to the point where a 2 pm ET start is considered late.

Wow. Wonder what the mentality is for someone who never watched but plays the video game. What motivated them to start playing the game as well?

Who is buying it? It’s bundled now wifg basically anything even some streaming.

I’d understand you’re point if it wasn’t already tied in with spectrum/yttv etc.
How do you fail to understand a sentence as simple as "Most people don't have a TV subscription"?

Well under 40% of US households subscribe to a TV service - rather that be cable, satellite, or a streaming option like YouTube TV.

lol ok 60% I don’t believe that.
So 60% just are watching tv with no subs and rabbit ears.
I don’t think you’re articulating your point correctly.

Imagine wanting to work with a guy who got fired from a top talent agency because, after several warnings from his employer…
  • He wouldn’t and still won’t shut the hell up about Tony Khan/AEW on Twitter because AEW didn’t gift him front row seats for an LA show
  • Publicly said he will refuse to negotiate with AEW - the only other wrestling company on Earth with the kind of money his clients can command - thus costing his agency and clients money
  • And apparently did such a poor job that the agency didn’t even want to keep his clients
