Conspiracy Theory FTW!

I don't think it's that hard to see. The rest of the entertainment industry has made the same move. More and more of the market in music and movies is shifting towards youth or teen demographics because there's money there.

And if you can't see money as a good reason, Well...

Actually, I'm not sure what I can say. People seem content to ignore the best reason for WWE's market shift in favour of blaming Linda's campaign.
