Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
I wonder if Vince will leave WWE if Alpha is serious. He's set up Stephanie, HHH and other executives to run WWE. I think he might be too old to run both since they've said he's taken 2 days off for a few years, something he'd never do besides Christmas and Thanksgiving when they stopped running Survivor Series on it. But I think he goes home on Wednesday and Thursday now.

Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
It's very possible e, I think Vince would have to be all in on the XFL part 2 venture for it to succeed. There's a strong rumour on January 25th there's a big announcement. Him stepping down would be huge but I think if Hunter takes over wrestling operations they will be in good hands. He can build bridges with disgruntled talent too like Bruno, Warrior et al. Steph is very much Vince 2.0 too so there won't be too much noticeable change. Perhaps Shane will work with Vince on this Alpha Entertainment thing. They were looking into acquiring a soccer team but unless its like Barcelona, Real Madrid etc they are a money pit. The Manchester City owner has spent hundreds of millions acquiring players and salaries so Vince would need very deep pockets (billions) to compete with multi Billionaire soccer team owners.

Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
That would be a disaster since Vince knows nothing about soccer. And he's not the kind of guy to invest money and let others do the work, he'd be hands on.Big Boss Man wrote:It's very possible e, I think Vince would have to be all in on the XFL part 2 venture for it to succeed.

And what is Urban Fitness League? Do they set up two weight stations in the middle of the city and have bench press contests?
Also Rusev is demanding they let him play in the XFL.

Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
Yep there was rumours Vince or Shane were interested in investing in Newcastle United but nothing else came from that. That Urban Fitness League seems to me to equate to Bodybuilding/Fitness contests. Aren't they usually under a Joe Weider umbrella?. He's already wound him up with the WBF, maybe URFL is WBF 2.0. The return of GARY STRYDOM~! Rusev in the XFL would be brilliant.

Big Show says he's asked to become an announcer when he retires and has been having Jerry Lawler teach him about color commentary. Now no fan is going to want a seat behind the announcers.

Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
According to Meltzer Batista was contacted about headlining the 2018 HOF, and said "how about I come back for one more year long run?" So they're negotiating the deal. I hope he's heel Batista. Face Batista sucks, but Heel Batista is great.

Re: WWE Thread (Spoilers)
I think AC/DC is the only band Vince likes. He talked about how he listens to them every day in the gym. And when they started making money again in 1998 he bought the rights to use Highway to Hell for Summerslam because he could.
