Leaks in Wrestling Today(Spoiler)

[Favre4Ever]

Sometime, I sit under the starry night sky and think to myself: Its the year 2004. The media is everywhere. Everybody is worried about everything, and everybody is in everybody else's business.

That being said, why hasn't Vince Mcmahon caught on? I just heard recently that Randy Orton is supposed to take the title from Benoit at Summerslam. I should'nt have found that out. NOBODY should have found that out. In fact, I feel bad that we all found out. It ruined it.

All that being said, heres my question: who is leaking this stuff out? Vince tells somebody, who tells somebody, who tells somebody is my thinking.

If Vince and the WWE are going to bitch about internet reporters, they need to learn to keep their shit under wraps. Keep the information in a small circle of people and don't tell the wrestlers in advance. If you can't trust somebody in the circle, fire 'em.

That being said, there's another weapon that has me confused; I have no idea why Vince won't use it: why doesn't he spread some misinformation? Have everybody think somethings gonna happen and then throw em the loop. This might get the casual viewer who reads everything online like a pussy( yeah, i do it to sometimes ) to take more interest and buy more PPV's.

Is this a good or a bad idea?

It's the pandas

[Loose Cannon]

That's what some of us thought about the whole Lesner leaving deal at first. We were saying that Vince might be pulling a fast one on all the Internet fans. But then someone brought up a good point about how decieving the boys in the lockeroom might not be a smart idae.

But, I think they should start throwing out false information to throw us off. Might as well use the Internet to your advantage.

It's not like everything that gets leaked is 100% accurate. Plans change.

[Volchok]

but if you read it on the internet it " has to be real " dont forget...

[Kane Knight]

Yeah, I keep forgetting.

[Favre4Ever]

Its not just that plans change, KK, its that when they do, we find out about it. I'm not sayin its all right, just too much of it is for the WWE's own good.

[Xero]

I figure there is an inside man or two who leak it to a few sites... Then those site's news gets stolen, and that gets stolen, and that gets stolen... I have seen a few sites steal news word for word from their own site... And some of those stolen news things from their own site are posted by the same poster... :wtf:

Beccause we find out about everything.

[Jaton]

You ask why he doesn't spread misinformation..who's to say that Orton/Benoit at SummerSlam is true?

[Batsu]

Yeah, come on.... HHH is gonna take that title from Benoit before it goes back to Orton. Who else?

[Mayo]

I wouldn't be surprised if Vince does leak false info. It is a smart thing to do, and although any rumour can't be trusted completely, it would keep us guessing at what will happen.

Also, I'm sure that people that leak the info get compensated quite well, so this would be a big reason for it.

[Corkscrewed]

Wait... Orton's gonna beat Benoit?!?!?!

Frankly, unless you keep a total clamp, you'll always have people who leak stuff. However, having a total clamp will provoke backlash. The whole free speech drivel will pop up.

There's also so many workers in the company, not just the wrestlers. Word spreads. So that said, it's pretty hard when you have so many possible sources.

[tucsonspeed6]

I think "disinformation" is spread enough by dumbasses who think its funny to make shit up. Vince doesn't need to do it. Hence we get http://www.tpww.net/forums/showthread.php?t=16784 [HHH/Benoit rematch, Orton/Edge rematch]

Vince can't keep everything clammed up. The wrestlers NEED to know these things, and other workers may overhear conversations about it. YOu can't stop the cameraguy or one of the grunts who sets up the ring from hearing something he wasn't supposed to hear.

[Stickman]

I don't think anybody should be told story lines other than the writers who write them, and the wrestlers who perform them. Everybody ellse should not be in the loop.

[Sephiroth]

It are the aliens...they always leak information. :shifty:

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

I figure there is an inside man or two who leak it to a few sites...

Of course they always remain anonymous.....
