And yet they're revenue continie to grows.

Ratings don't mean as much as it did when there was 3 networks. Get with the times. Biggest show on TV today isn't shit compared to the ratings of the 90s.

Everything is niche now.

Revenue only exists if they have an accessible platform for their primary shows. If their ratings continue to drop they'll lose their spot on their network thus lose more fans from watching. The Network is a failure and they use "free months" to artificially boost subscriptions. Times have changed, but WWE marks never do.

Wrestlemania did a 17 million live gate and fans were bitching and moaning heading up to it.

Network will stay at 1.3 million and make a quarter of a bil yearly.

Assuming those 1.3 million subscribers are actual paying customers. Even so, 1.3 mill x 10$ is 13 million dollars times 12 = 156 million is not a quarter of a billion

Still better than nothing.

No, it really doesn't. The issue with ad placement during RAW has plummeted. It's cheap to get advertising. The WWE is going to hemorrhage money when their investors get tired of their shit. This has nothing to do with Kayfabe. Kayfabe or breaking kayfabe doesn't determine money generated.

Explain Kay jewels and Marvel trailers....they doing fine.

Better off than all them broke ass territories Jim Cornette tries to convince himself is better.

You realize Marvel and Kay Jewlers pay a flat price for that ad time right? It costs them almost nothing compared to other TV shows. The WWE doesn't charge them more for ad time because they are bigger ads.

Again, you're associating kayfabe and money when it's not the same thing. Kayfabe doesn't matter.

 

[deezy]

Ofcourse kayfabe doesn't matter, that's the entire point of my first post. It just held the product back and was the main reason for this shadow over the business and is treated like second class entertainment.

Buts it's more ubiquitous today and the money is the most it's ever drawn. Hypotheticals are just that. What if Vince died on Monday? What if the stock market crashed again? What if uFC admitted it's a work?

That means nothing too.
