So it appears that WWE is drawing in more female fans
 

The following is from an article on the Main Page:
Kind of surprising, but I guess like it says, when you factor in the TV PG-13 or whatever brand of action WWE is using these days, I could see how that would have more appeal to the ladies, as it means the divas segments are percieved as not so much just using the ladies as eye-candy with next to nothing on in their matches, and thus "objectifying women" or whatever...plus it seems, according to the articles, that the ladies seem to enjoy the fact that the guys are all mostly muscly and not giant blobs as much as in the past, which is perfectly understandable.

Clearly a Helms fan.

Meanwhile, I bet they've lost a lot of fans that helped make them big back in the 'good old days'.

Clearly its time for WWE Films to make a romantic comedy.

I'd watch it

only if its rated 18 though, and we get to see some tittays

WWE: Now you can watch it with your Grandma. (Unless you're a member of the 18-35 year old male demographic which we have almost COMPLETELY ALIENATED!!!!!!)

AKA the fans that got them this far in the first place
AKA the people who without would have lost in the ratings war and would be out of business

really?

No, that one.

its the same person

im no noob

am not

but i have been comming to tpww for over 10 years

and that Gorgeous George thing is what we call 'a joke'

does

why the fuck should I believe anything Ryan Clark say? :wtf: :shifty:

*also agrees with BDC*

hot BDC/nOOb CRIPPLE FIGHT right now...

AKA The people who do nothing but bitch, whine, and complain about the product, and no longer supply them with the kind of revenue that they used to?

and why?

see 7th post

Yeah, and the fact is that catering to that demographic is providing results. Why should they worry about pleasing the unpleasable demographic when they can find new ones to provide profit with less work?

The operant question here: Why is WWE in business?

Wrong answer: To provide quality wrestling, well thought-out storylines, endearing characters, and memorable moments.

Correct answer: To make money.

And whether you or I like it or not, they're always going to go with what makes them the most profit. If catering to grandma and college chicks is what provides the biggest revenue increases with the smallest amount of work, they're going to do that. It's going to be much easier than trying to please the crowd that hasn't been consistently pleased with anything since 2001. We can bitch about wanting "real wrestling" all we want, but from WWE's profit perspective, what has "real wrestling" gotten them? Two dead vanilla midgets complete with tons of bad global publicity, a hotshot-turned-MMA fighter with a penis tattoo, and a mentally unstable Olympian ship-jumper. So what are they going to do, A) keep sticking their hand on that hot fire, or B) parade some hot bodies in front of the growing female demographic? If you said A, you're a moron, and if you said B, you're still a moron, but you happened to pick the right answer. Broken clocks and all.

And for fuck's sake, quit wanking your crank about how the fans they don't want to market to anymore are the ones that made them. We paid our money, they provided product. Unless you happen to be a shareholder, WWE owes you nothing. And if you are a shareholder, take it up at the next meeting.
