Motown Saint Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 His business is concluded. The Saudis are paying him for (ten?) shows. He's not "there to make money". For all intents and purposes, he already signed for the events and made the money. Sure, he could deliver bad shows and leave the Saudis unhappy...but that doesn't mean that he cares about who goes and stays. And as for the shareholders...I think many of them frown on the Saudi relations to begin with. The sooner these shows are finished, the better. It was a mistake to do the business, and now we're left watching the obligations unfold. If Vince can get away with putting the least amount of effort into these shows as possible, he probably will. I doubt it. I know he's a buissness man. He's made no secret of that. It's just that he's making foolish decisions in other aspects while he's basically bending over backwards for these people. I'm pretty sure you get Vince to do something stupid for a pretty penny. Of course you would. The guy put his face in Rikishi's ass for less. Plus, Shane had his face in Big Show's too. Man, what a weird family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 A spike in value hardly means much to disprove what I said. WWE has been doing well on all fronts and was on a financial incline before the Saudi deal even occurred. Also, where do those investors come from? Saudi Arabia? Just because there was a large sum of money injected into WWE's trade, that doesn't change what I said about investors being unhappy with the Saudi deal. Dark money is a real thing. The Saudi deal has been scrutinized very deeply by a large group of investors. There's more to be said than simply "the numbers are up". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If stockholders are not happy, then why aren't they selling when it is high? And WWE was doing well in all fronts, but do you see that massive spike in 2018? That is majority related to the Saudi deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 If they are greedy, then they would support the deal because they are greedy. The question was never about people wanting to make money or not. I said that the Saudi deal made people uncomfortable...and believe me, it does. But greed wins in the end...because, people are notoriously scumbags. Also, why are we pretending like investors are sitting there making personal decisions about what they buy and sell? Most of these people hire brokers. They don't even give a shit what they're buying if the broker tells them it's good. Again...dark money and greed. All I said was that people frown on the deal. It's no different than if someone sells a giant brick of heroin and says "you can have 10% of the sale...it's a sure thing". Of course people will take it. I'm not even sure what you're trying to prove here... Again, it comes down to where the money is coming from, anyway. My guess is that a lot of the spike is coming directly from Saudi investors.

Monkey D. Jiggy Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 One of the benefits of having a large payroll, is that you can have so many people cancel the Saudi show and still be able to drum up 50 people for the Battle Royal. Wonder if the idolo Dan Matha will bless us again with his presence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
