Forbes Calls ESPN - WWE Partnership A Game Changer

[Pittie Petey]

ESPN will have a WWE segment every Tuesday night during the 9pm ET of SportsCenter

Like any great partnership, ESPN and WWE's relationship has the potential to fill needs that these entities cannot fulfill on their own. With highlights on ESPN's flagship show, WWE becomes more mainstream, something it hasn't been since the Attitude Era of the late-90?s. The underground stench of pro wrestling will slowly begin to dissipate, opening the door for more advertisers and sponsorship deals.

Not just Coachman, Todd Grisham was right there with him.

 

[PRIDEWASBETTER]

Not to mention everybody there is a fan.

 

[LuchaBear]

Maybe not a good idea to start it off by showing a clip of Demon Kane dragging Rollins into "Hell"

Or this

If this is the type of reaction they want to get...

Plus I thought it was a show for kids these days so how many kids are watching ESPN these days?...

Yuck. While requiring real skill, the WWE is nothing more than performance art.

 

[Stargazer Rex]

Dope

i like it but I think it'd be better to focus on the athletes(yeah I said athletes) themselves rather than highlights of the shows. I doubt anyone was converted by seeing rollins hamming it up as he's dragged under the ring by a "demon". However, if they had shown him displaying dat functional strength in a gym while they discussed his training and athletic ability while showing select highlights of his matches could bring in some new eyes.
