The biggest accomplishment and hardest trial of their lives. Congratulations to both. Fatherhood is what separates boys from men; it's time for Colby to grow up. Nice backwards compliment. In what way is he not grown up?

I was gonna slate them for cashing in on a pandemic, but if they're donating all the money to help fight it, fair play, good on them. Funny how you wanted to jump down their throats and criticize them for making masks... Are you going to do the same to AEW? They have masks on sale on ProWrestlingTees and 0% of the proceeds are going to a charity. Funny how double-standards and favoritism works against WWE all the time.

Quality has gone up due to technology for sure, but there are plenty of solid figures from series 1-63.
Just picking ten (going backwards from Series 63) Elite 63 Nakamura Elite 62 AOP Elite 60 Triple H Elite 59 Kurt Angle Elite 57 Scotty 2 Hotty Elite 56 Luke Gallows Elite 55 Neville Elite 53 Heath Slater Elite 52 D-Lo Brown Elite 50 Warlord
There are PLENTY more, but those are just a few.

The complaining on here is unreal. Some of you sound like overgrown man-babies. You are not celebrating Mother's Day for loved ones because you are waiting for pre-orders for plastic toys? Wow...

I predict this will be like Marc Mero and Sable. Scarlett will be a bigger star on the main roster and outshine him because she’s a hot blonde. Straight out of the Jim Cornette podcast...

Why would they make a two-pack of a match that ruined Bret's career?

Like: Brock Lesnar is awesome and it's how he's booked that makes him blah, not him. how do you respond to lesnar's choice to not give effort on the ambrose match? ambrose said lesnar wasn't interested in working a compelling match and called it in. Ambrose literally half-assed his WWE run so I wouldn't want to give him much in a match either. And Lesnar had a fight coming up.

There will be no fans at any WWE show probably for a year. This COVID19 isn't going away. With the USA wanting to re-open everything and some stuff already being opened again, the surge of the 2nd wave of COVID19 will be worse than the first, thus shutting down more stuff than before. Doubtful, there won’t be any second wave Good joke...

How do some of you belong to a wrestling figure forum and not know that Michael cole had a BAF or that Muhammad Hassan had a Jakks figure? Do some research man.

Yeah the bigger story is called the Coronavirus and its lasting impact on businesses and people. For real dude, look at their very public and easy to find financials and THEN tell me why these firings and furloughs are necessary. I do not know why you need justification? You do not run this business. Do you not want to be a fan anymore because they let Primo and Epico go? No one is making you watch.

There's no way to look at this without a level of suspicion. Yes, it is a business. But the fact they've donated to politicians a few days ago, then deemed an essential service, only to go on to mass firings/layoffs, looks bad on paper any way you slice it. It's a lot of smoke. WWE has needed to clear house for years now and this is going to end up a huge positive for the wrestling business. It's a shame it has to come with such seemingly shady and nefarious means though. I think there's a bigger story here than just cutting talent and furloughing staff and crew. Yeah the bigger story is called the Coronavirus and its lasting impact on businesses and people.

This is not a bad look. It's business. It is what needs to be done. Most of these people do not get used anyway. Everyone is cutting costs at this point. What makes WWE any different? Because WWE doesn't need to lay people off unless their tv or blood money revenue isn't coming in. Their production costs are at an all time low, so unless they're releasing people who asked to be released it's a really sh*tty move. They could potentially lose their current TV deal if they do not produce enough live shows. You have no idea what goes into their day-to-day business. No one knows how long this could last. They, as a business, need to prepare for the worst. It definitely sucks for the talent, but it was going to happen eventually.

Nobody is producing new content and WWE isn’t getting cash flow from Live stadium events so I’m sure it’s for that reason They lost around $25 mil from 'Mania this year. And from every indication I've seen live events are mostly a wash and aren't a major part of their income. WWE is almost completely propped up by the TV and blood money revenue. Like I said, unless they're not paying this is a really bad look from WWE. This is not a bad look. It's business. It is what needs to be done. Most of these people do not get used anyway. Everyone is cutting costs at this point. What makes WWE any different?

Due to Covid-19, WWE has released Gallows and Anderson, EC3, Curt Hawkins, Drake Maverick, Eric Young, Heath Slater,and Lio Rush, (so much for getting a figure) with more possible cuts coming if they are cutting talent, i can see possibly Liv Morgan, Sarah Logan, Ember Moon, Tamina, all getting cut on the womens side Mike Chioda, Rowan, Sarah Logan, Epico,Primo Aiden English added I do not see Liv Morgan getting released. And they better not release Ember Moon. Everyone else makes sense, and I do not mean any offense by that.

I absolutely do. She was very good (regardless of her small amount of experience). And it doesn;t matter if what she said is a work or not. She is right. Wrestling fans suck.

No. She didn't belong in the first place, and she doesn't belong now. Why didn't she belong. She was/ is better than half the roster and brought eyes to the women's division.

Don't get me wrong, I hate hearing about guys losing their jobs and their chances to make money while getting a national platform. But I had no interest in this XFL and never watched a game. Perhaps I would have given it a shot if it wasn't so blatant at what audience they were aiming for. Weren't they aiming for the Football audience? Not seeing the problem here...
