Vince can’t afford Conor, plain and simple.
Difference between Conor and Rousey is simple. Ronda only made around 3.3 mil from all of her UFC fights combined. Her last fight she made 3 mil, the other fights they paid her sh#%.
Conor made around 100 mil off the Mayweather fight. Made another 40 mil in UFC.

Anybody think it's doable to go to Saturday axxess 8-9 (meet Becky and meet AJ) run to wrestlecon for pro photos and autos and then run back to axxess for the good brothers at 11? They going to let you back in?

When the %#^* was the last time Austin did a paid signing? Wish I saw this earlier. Congrats to whoever got that 316 package. Still kicking myself for. It shelling out for that Hogan/Warrior combo a while back

Reading the live reactions from people at the MC is priceless.
What we saw on TV from MC, then during commercial breaks they had 2 3 minute 205 live dark matches. And then they rolled out 50 inch TVs so the fans could watch the remainder of Raw from Barclays.
Who the hell planned this?

To be fair, it was a boring year storyline wise, but at the same time, there wasn't a lot of truly horrendous stuff going on. Nothing to the level of the gooker or the Yetay

This is BS there isn't a scheduling conflict. Kingston did around 3000 people in 2016 for NXT. They did a gate of 400 tickets several months ago for NXTs return to that venue. They weren't selling well.

I use Sharpie Mettalic Perm markers. Comes out nicely on the belt, doesn't smudge or fade

Pretty interesting looking at that packaging, it was jacked up back then. Amazing some of these have stayed on the card for 30 years

When a publicly traded company is sold, the stocks are usually sold at a premium price, I.e. Higher than what the current value is. Example: LinkedIn was at 131 bucks a share when Microsoft bought it. They bought it for almost 200 a share.
If Vince was selling, why would he dump a bunch of his stock now?
The stock dropped 8 percent because generally, you sell high. The largest shareholder and CEO dumping a bunch of stock, for whatever reason, spooks investors and makes them think the price has peaked.
Also a quick history of WWE stock. It was 6 bucks a share at one point, shot to 35 around WMXXX, then dropped to the 14-17 range for a few years. Point being, peaks and valleys not necessarily Vince is selling the company

Lil' Naitch and Johnny Ace are the only people to stay with the company continuity since 2001, Booker T, Billy Kidman and Jaime Knoble all had breaks before coming back. What do you mean “had breaks before coming back”? He means they haven't continuously been with the company since the buyout of WCW, Booker went to TNA, Jamie was in ROH etc in the mid 2000s. OP was looking for continuous employment

I got very lucky, grabbed a Hogan for 60 bucks in the 90s, and a Hart for 200 during the recession, both MIB. Never could grab Taker for a decent price.
