This was from yesterday. This disease is pretty much changing things hour by hour so I don’t know if this is gonna stick

For example, WWE canceled Raw Monday in Pittsburgh and Smackdown next Friday in NOLA

They are technically not cancelled, just moved to the performance center.

Yeah.

But they will find out soon enough that shows without fans is futile.

Would be awesome to see some start to cough and sneeze on their opponents.

Good for McMahon.

This shite is completely out of control.

They split the ad revenue. That's big business. Vince isn't about to go broke.

Not versus the cost of putting on an entire football league.

No but that doesn't mean he's making money on the XFL.

An empty arena Wrestlemania would be insane man...and I kind of want to see this shite. Watch the performers come out to bad arse entrances and hype the non existent crowd...would be amazing TV. Also Cena is performing..so we can hear him call the match every move with no crowd noise

He's a piece of shite. A wrestler could have aids and Vince would book him for a Hell in the Cell match

Yeah, but them ratings have been dropping since week one. He got a lot of work to do if he wants to maintain those contracts.

That doesn’t change the point.

And we have history and facts

What history or facts? The WWE pays for all surgery and rehab for injured wrestlers. They're even paying for drug and alcohol rehab for former wrestlers, even if they work somewhere else now.

There’s “no chance in hell” wrestlemania happens.

No he isn't. XFL is doing just fine. Vince already got paid his TV contracts.


Good ratings were what he needed to get TV contracts. Ratings dropped every week in the range of 15-19% every week.

It still had a chance but shutting down this season is a major blow to that chance.

I have seen several people knighting for the XFL as if all is fine but it isn't even close to at this point.

Now it is obvious you have no idea what you are talking about. Why do people pop off when they don't know anything about the subject, there were NO TV contracts this season. No network was taking the chance on the XFL.

It’s like you purposely miss the point.

Not to mention reality.
