It's worse, because it is both. It's a scummy outsider culture underneath the umbrella of a corporation ran by the dude Ari from Entorage was based on. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be looking to Punk as a good judge of character. Look how many stories came out about him last year. And the Brawl Out press conference wouldn’t have happened had Mr. Professionalism himself not started it. Yes Vince is a scumbag, and should be shot off in a cannon towards the moon (or wherever you’d like to send him), but he’s still entitled to sell his company to whomever he likes. Just like Dan Snyder is with the Washington Commanders. And to be fully honest I’m not sure Snyder isn’t just as bad as Vince, but he gets less attention since his football team is one of the 10-12 worst at the moment.

Just stop watching it! I do not give them any money. I will watch PPVs with my best friend, because he is still a weekly WWE watcher, but I don't have Peacock, and I was a Nielson person for 3 years(the pandemic extended my run) and there was not a single second of WWE programming that entire time. You don't have to tell me not to watch. I wouldn't give them bitches a dime if they were destitute and begging at the gas station. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 BTW, after watching the first two episodes of this season of Succession, it feels like it's more about WWE than ever. The storyline in Succession feels like it's mirroring what's going on in WWE. It's very bizarre. I wish someone on an interview with Jesse Armstrong would ask him if he's aware that there's more parallels to Succession and WWE than there are to News Corp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 What Vince's look most reminds me of is when Michael Jordan would start doing weird shit with his facial hair or clothes, like when he had the Hitler mustache for way too long. I wonder what Vince's version of Kerry thinks about his look. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sale to GoJo is about to go off the rails, so WWE and Succession will deviate soon enough. I want to see mustache Vince stand on boxes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
