Former WWE announcer shoots on the current state of WWE
During an appearance on the Wrestling Inc. Daily podcast, former WWE announcer Hugo Savinovich commented on the current state of the WWE product…
“WWE dominates wrestling because they’re the No. 1 company in the world. However, if you closely study the product, you’re gonna realize that they actually are making more money now with the Thunderdome because they were not drawing on the road. It was embarrassing. They were not drawing for Raw or SmackDown. They were actually losing money. Now, they have one building where they do two shows and NXT in a smaller building, and all their shows are making money. The reality is the No. 1 company in the world has almost 300 top talents and the people [who work there] are actually upset. Not many people want to talk about it because they’re scared of the monster.”
“The only true enemy that WWE has is WWE. Because, they don’t need more money. They already got enough money from Peacock and NBC, FOX, and all the other deals. Yet, they have mistreated the fans. Remember when the McMahon family did a semi-shoot by standing in the ring and promising to change the product? I haven’t seen it happen.”
