Right, what I'm saying is that the good footage is always going to be valuable. If Peacock or whoever decides they want the catalogue because they want classic rock and wrestling and the attitude era, that is not going to change because WWE added another 3 years of shows that aren't as good as the previous eras. They are still going to want the great eras and will pay for the extra 1000 hours to keep the good hours.
The Office is one of the most popular streaming shows on Netflix. Even though the main star left in season 7, Netflix still had to pay for season 8 and season 9.
Now, of course it is all hypothetical that they will ever be able to license their content in this way, but I think that is the next opportunity they are looking to go after.
