Is it really a good idea for WWE to rely on children for their ratings?

I'm betting more than one guy on the show was marketed to you, too.

Originally Posted by Damndirty Yeah, but it's also shown that this tactic almost drove WWE bankrupt once before, so they shifted towards a more radical approach. And even though they were fans of the people in their time, that doesn't mean those people will still be there when they become adults. I'm not even as much of a fan as I used to be after all my favorite superstars disappeared, hell, almost ALL of the superstars from my time are gone. Big Show, Jericho, Kane, Christian, and Triple H are the only ones left and I know they don't have much longer wrestling for the company. What I am getting to is that this PG thing can't go on forever, I know this has been over-posted, but this is regarding what would happen if Cena really is gone. In the current mold of the company, Cena's segments always hit big ratings and are usually (not always, but usually) the ones that do.

The PG thing can go on forever. The question is, will it? The answer: probably. In the meanwhile, WWE is making fucktons of money and keeping ratings relatively stable. So what reason is there to change? Because you don't like it? Because of your falsely inflated notion of what does and doesn't go over with people? Because ponies?
