Umm...has anyone been to wwe.com lately? There's TNA news!
 

I didn't see this anywhere else & I thought it was VERY interesting.

I just checked wwe.com and they seem to have slightly redone the site. There are new tabs on the main page for Features, Industry News, Photos, and Videos.

Well, I clicked on "Industry News" and there are many stories from various wrestling related websites (such as wrestlezone) which I found interesting since WWE doesn't seem to like these websites.

And not only that...there's a story on wwe.com from wrestlezone about TNA Lockdown! Right on wwe.com! Clicking on any of the links brings the articles right on wwe.com

Umm...:wtf:?

I NEW IT! I NEW IT! VINCE MACMANN ONWZ TEH TNA!!!!!111

Anyways, yeah, that's odd. Is this going to be another of their five-minute attempts to cater to the IWC?

Either way it'll be taken down as soon as they accidentally link to a site that has something critical of Stephanie or HHH.

:eek:

whoa what the hell

Lol, someone's gonna get fired...Or Kurt Angle has gotten really good with computers

Damnit beat me to it.

...What?

Vince, Triple H and Stephanie are going to be pissed as fuck and someone is getting canned. They HATE dirt sheets, and there's no way in hell they approved that.

What's worse is that Matt Boone now has a national platform.

I think you are on to something...In fact, WWE wants more people to go check out TNA right now, so when they see how god-awful it is they will never want to watch it again.

It's destroying TNA...by promoting TNA.

<s>Just incase</s> For when it's taken down, here's a screen shot.

There should be a countdown for how long until it gets taken down

Is there seriously a link to Rajah on WWE.com?

This is going to last for a while, since Vince, Steph, and Trips never read the website or watch the programming.

Are we in some alternative world?

TPWW ON WWE.COM

Let's do it guys.

The Ruse Report vs the Ross Report in a STEEL CAGE THAT AINT MADE OF LICORICE FROM HELL match.

Jerry Lawler is gonna be a partner in a furniture store business in a city 40 miles east of where I live? :eek:

If you plan on buying something, don't forget to bring an ultraviolet light.

lol

Maybe WWE has been praying all along for TNA to provide them with a bit of competition to bumpstart the next big boom, and seeing how inept they have proven so far, despite a pretty starry roster, they've decided to give them a helping hand... for the greater good of the wrestling business.

That, or Michael Cole is pissed off bad at having to work with Coach and is wreaking vengeful havoc.

Also, think about it... by "flattering" the more popular news sites, WWE may be hoping for a more positive portrayal of the company by these sites, for fear of them losing their credits on WWE.com or even sheer embarrassment that somebody over at WWE is actually, definitely reading their site and not wanting to upset anyone.

Wonder how neutral Rajah, for example, will be from now on?

Ew.

It's got the TNA Impact results now. This is pretty surreal.

Won't really matter, all the sites WWE.com quotes from just steals the news from the big three sites anyway.

Won't TNA have something to say about WWE using their copyrights (PPV names, gimmicks etc) on their website?

lol what the fuck this is so confusing. WHY WOULD THE WWE DO THIS.

This is very very very odd. WTF is goin on

Hmm, how strange...

it's fucking genius!

WWE is pissed at all the big wrestling news sites which account for so much online wrestling traffic. What they're doing is first and foremost trying to detract people from going to those sites for their wrestling news, come to WWE.com and thus WWE can begin to control the wrestling dirtsheets industry, stopping all these rumors like Jericho's return being revealed early. We know Steph is pissed at this.

However this probably won't work.

Secondly they are simply trying to take a chunk of the online wrestling fan traffic and bring it to WWE.com to increase ad revenue, merchandise sales and interest in their product. Mainly casual fans or non-IWC wrestling fans will visit WWE.com, there are many many fans who do not visit WWE.com and simply maintain an interest in TNA and RoH. But if WWE.com can get word out they are more IWC friendly and attract these people then there are rewards for this.

That's my take.

My take, I guess, is that WWE knows TNA isn't a threat, so who the fuck cares? It's a bigger story to me that they are linking stories from internet newsboards in general, who are the scourge of the wrestling business in their eyes.

ROH is on there. That's awesome.
Also I hope someone puts up smackdown spoilers if this is a hack.

"We're on WWE.com!?"

That's what I was going for! I just don't like to say his name... it's like Voldemort in the wrestling industry.
