MikeM Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 There isnt an Australian quota. You're not telling me that WWE doesn't keep or push certain people because of demographics - hell we know they've elevated people based on that before - just look how many times they've tried to clone Rey Mysterio. I'm sure every avenue is explored when evaluating talent. I don't mean "quota" in terms of the way football has a "foreign players" rule, more something along the lines of having characters for certain groups of fans. official one: We could cut Emma, there's really nothing for her creatively now. official two: She's important in the Australian market, we'd lose popularity there. official one: Nah we can bring up Billie Kay and Peyton Royce for that offical two: Nice thinking, then we've also freed up two spots in NXT as well. Or there's the other one about the current WWE Champion. "We're launching the Network in India, we need a big attraction". As for Nia, WWE could so easily have killed that story by stating she was hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the problem is, nobody particarlly cares about the Australian demographic because it isnt going to be as lucrative as the Hispanic market or even more popular Asian countries... like India.

It's pretty lucrative, they wouldn't tour down there if it wasn't a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil' Kazu Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Australia was at one point the highest paid territory and I hear it's making a comeback. Having said that, I don't know if having Australian wrestlers makes that big of a difference. They just did some shows in Chile and Argentina that did great business with no wrestlers from there.

TeamKickCaptain Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Australia is a pretty good market, and has lots of cool smaller time promotions. There seems to be a ton of women's wrestlers lately coming out of Australia particularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsie Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Yeah, I've watched a few MCW shows and I liked what I saw. It seems to be a growing market too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDAWG Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 I still think Asuka's push is going to be derailed when Stephanie intimidates her, making Asuka look weak because the WWE is not smart enough to allow any of the other women to strike back at Stephanie.

Lil' Kazu Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 WON on why Io Shirai wasn't signed: The reason WWE passed on Io Shirai was not due to her back but due to an issue they found with her heart. The fact is, she has been cleared by doctors in Japan from both her neck and heart but WWE’s doctors suggested passing on her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
