Title: WWE's "BIG" Announcement:
Post by: Montague on January 06, 2014, 07:35:25 PM
So, as I suffer through hour number three of RAW, I am slightly interested in this big announcement that the Fed has planned for this week that will supposedly be the most revolutionary to the industry. Specifically, I'm intrigued as to the timing; why make it Wednesday at 9:30? I don't understand the significance.

With the lineup including Austin, HBK, HHH, etc., it makes me wonder if they're gearing up for a "new" Attitude Era. They've brought back Brock and Batista, and I doubt Linda will be making a third Senate run.

Perhaps the launching of the WWE network?

That may very well be. It seems like the old man's been trying to get that off the ground for at least the last ten years. I remember talks for quite some time. Is it fair to presume it would be part of regular cable channel programming unlike the subscription-based WWE 24/7?

That would certainly be big news, but not news along the lines of what they're advertising, in my opinion. Austin, etc. would draw big numbers for the shows he works ala Rock, but I don't consider that impacting the entire industry.

So, apparently, WWE's communications division accidentally spilled the beans about the launch of their network. I wonder if Vince will come up with something last minute as a swerve.
