      The following is an opinion made from a Jello Mold…

      TKO is finding out that WWE fans have slightly better morals than UFC fans, it’s why they’ve been working so hard to convert WWE PLE’s into UFC ticket pricing, to push out the middle class (and more importantly poor people) for the millionaire and billionaire class.

      As to the topic at hand… think of that gif of Troy going “good.”

            The MSG card where the panned to the Orange Man between fights, after fights, and most of the fighters started bootlicking killed a good portion of my already dying Fandom

        I’d believe it. Replace the crowd with a bunch of dinner tables with execs, Saudi Princes, and other billionaire trash. Won’t even need to worry about the ratings at that point.

    gotta love how they simultaneously tried to distance themselves from it by making it a private, no camera affair with no advertising while also cancelling it by saying there wasn’t enough ticket sales.

    With the amount of comedy and wrestling stuff I follow you think this wouldn’t be the first time I’m hearing about it. Granted, I have no interest in it, but I doubt Instagram’s algorithm is that smart.
