The IWC needs its own promotion fundraising thread.
Ok a bit of a joke really but how great would it be to chuck in the price of a WWE PPV or Live Ticket each and give all the money to Paul Heyman to create a company from.
As an actual purpose for the thread. I like the new Vince angle with him wandering round backstage smiting people. The matches he makes could be better thought out / booked but I prefer this mad Vince over his previous character. Though whether its an angle or was just for last week remains to be seen. What are your thoughts on it? Quote:

I think it's good. It's at least fresh. Also, I don't really know where it's going, so that's another plus. I'm also happy that he doesn't seem to give a fuck about Bobby Lashley anymore. I figure it may all just be leading up to Vengeance and the whole "Night of Champions" 'thing with his jealousy towards all champions.

Heyman is under contract with WWE. Talk about a conflict of interest?

Yeah because Paul Heyman is the first guy I'd give all of my money to in order to run a wrestling promotion.

Better idea, use all this money, pool it, buy a significant percentage of WWE stock and be a shareholder who makes demands. I mean to be considered a major shareholder you only need, what, something around 5 or 6%. And seeing as how WWE stock is somewhere around 300 shares for a nickle or your best offer, I think we just might be able to do this.

Buy out every seat at WrestleMania, and don't have anyone show up.
Vince would shit himself. He made the money, sure, but how is a football stadium full of maybe 100 employees going to look to fans, investors, and potential advertisers? |

Better yet...call Vince, Steph, Hunter, and Cena all to WWE Headquarters. And then somehow stage an "accident" which causes the building to explode.

The One's onto something. For the price of a PPV, you could buy a couple of shares of WWE stock. So every time you feel like watching a PPV, buy stock and download it illegal. After all, it's YOUR product now. So it's not really stealing.

But of course the skeleton of Hulk Hogan will make a comeback, single handedly rebuild Titan Towers and proclaim himself new CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment. And in his first act rename WWE to WHE: World Hulkster Entertainment.

The bomb could be wired to go off during Hogan's entrance music.

Just found the WWE's buisness strategy, made amusing reading!
Business Strategy Our formula is straightforward. We develop compelling storylines anchored by our Superstars. This content drives television ratings, which, in turn, drive pay-per-view buys, live event attendance, WWE.com traffic and branded merchandise sales. Our strategy is to capitalize on the significant operating leverage of our business model through the distribution of this intellectual property across existing media platforms, as well as new and emerging distribution platforms. We are working to expand the mainstream potential of the World Wrestling Entertainment brand in domestic and international markets, develop extension businesses off the World Wrestling Entertainment brand, fully develop our Internet presence as an entertainment and advertising platform, and develop new programming and sports entertainment brands that leverage WWE’s core competencies. As part of our business strategy, we continue to pursue initiatives to strengthen our brands, expand internationally, effectively use our valuable library of wrestling content, and explore options in filmed entertainment. |

So WWE even claims to recognise that TV ratings drive merch sales, attendance, and PPV buys. Something ahlf of TPWW needs to get.
The question, then, is why they aren't changing a program, where last week's hourlies were 2.7 and (Below 2.7). I'd suggest that they pay attention to said model. |

I want to be on reality slap patrol.
You know, it's kind of a veto position. When someone books a stupid idea, I backhand them back to reality. It's like being a supervisor, only more violence. |
