Could WWE ever go under?
Do you think that WWE will ever go under?
I dont think it will ever go under since it has got away with so much and can still make money

Anything can go out of business. But Vince is a smart enough guy, it's when he's gone is when you'll have to worry.

Speaking of the XFL, I can't believe Vince made fun of himself during the Survivor Series commercial. WWE stars attacked XFL players and at the end Vince said "The WWE and football..................nah"

I can easily see it happening if Vince doesn't wisen up and stop doing whatever the hell he wants without worrying about the consequences, or what the fans want to see.

Nah! The WWWF... err the WWF (now WWE) has been around forever. I don't think it would ever go under. I believe that the WWE may lose viewers but that means that it will just become a smaller promotion than it is now. There are enough hardcore wrestling fans out there that will keep the company in business. The only way the WWE will go out of business is if they are dropped by TNN and UPN. Even if that were to happen McMahon would probally create his own wrestling channel. So either way the WWE is here to stay!

Even if the WWE continues to **** up for a long time, Vince is still sitting on about $600 million, so the WWE can afford to lose money for years on end without having to go under.

I said he wouldn't have to go under. Whether or not he wants bail out because the company is losing money is a diffrent story.

I don't think that the WWE would continue to lose money without bouncing back for a long enough amount of time to force them to go under, as I have stated.

No, but that reason doesn't necessarily have to be that Vince is a genius.

Ricky - If Vince McMahon cas so easily turn the biz around, why did it take him 6 years to do it in the 90s and why have the ratings plummeted since he bought WCW with no signs of a rebirth anywhere?

WWE right now has something like $300 million cash reserves and is actually making money (amazingly!) so they won't die any time soon.

By the way, the WWF very nearly died in the 90's (more than once) so it's always possible.

Like I said, I believe it's because he just isn't trying as hard right now. It goes back to the argument about the WWE needing competition. There is no competition right now (apart from TNA, but they are on a different day plus don't even have a proper TV deal) and so he doesn't need to worry, because as far as he's concerned, the WWE is the number 1 company in the business.

Even when there is no competition, I still think that if the WWE was in SERIOUS trouble, they would be able to fix things. 1 thing I don't understand is why Vince hasn't given Eric Bischoff and Paul Heyman jobs on the creative team. He likes them enough to give them a job, so why he won't let someone like Bischoff (who was the man that FORCED the WWF to revamp their product in the late 90's) help to make the company better, I have no idea. If the company was in deep trouble, I don't think Vince would be so stupid as to REFUSE to let Bischoff and Heyman help out, and let his company die, just for a stupid bit of pride. Bischoff and Heyman swollowed their pride by agreeing to work for Vince, I think it's about time Vince swollowed his. Although, that's just what I THINK should happen, and I think if in BIG TROUBLE, Vince would do it.

Why it orginally took Vince 6 years too fix things, I don't know. I'm not saying he can neccesarily do it himself, but he deffinately has the resources to make it happen. It's often argued that it was because of Eric Bischoff and Paul Heyman that Vince came up with the "attitude" era. But if those 2, in particular Bischoff, were capable of provoking the WWE into improving their product before, then I don't see why it can't happen again, especially if they are working for him and their own jobs are at risk. But again, it all goes back to if Vince is wiling to swallow his pride and let it happen, and I'd like to think that if desparate, he would.

They could but they wouldn't. WCW didn't even die when they got took off TV technically. They could last as a touring company for a while but certainly not for that long. The odds of them losing the Viacom deal are slim to none anyway and even if they did, they would get TV elsewhere almost instantly.

Yes I think WWE can go under. But the question is will it go under. There are a alot of ifs, ands, ors, buts, and other such things to the equaltion. But no, I don't think they will be going under any time soon.

I dont think they are in any danger right now, but ratings could take another nose dive at any time. And as Mr Kellner has shown, the right person in the wrong position, and wrestling could be gone in an instant (well after their contract anyway).

As for other networks, I dont think there is that much interest in wrestling in the TV biz, if there was there would be another show by now on TV. I know the WWE has a much stronger following, but still I dont think it would be a guarantee they'd get another deal.

As for touring, I think if they lost TV they'd out of business as a national product in no time. They do that well at house shows as it is with so much TV, imagine how bad it would be without that promotion.
