You give Vince too much credit for not being an idiot....

On this note howver....

I think AJ (and maybe Am Drag depending on what they want to do with him) just hit the Bret Hart to Thunder lottery though. AJ wants to retire next Mania probably, and Am Drag might want to say dueces come September. And Vince will probably pay a ton to keep them wrestling period or staying in America, since he's gonna want someone to lead SD on Fox for eyes on product.

FOX studios isn't FOX network so no. FOX still exists after the Disney sale as a separate entity. Roman could appear on Bill O'Reilly though.

No. They aren't interested in the FOX networks. They own rivaling networks; it's in their best interest to not attempt to deal with the FCC monopoly situation and continue to enhance their ABC brand. It's also in their best interest for FOX to buy WWE product.

ABC ratings are stronger than FOX ratings.

ABC ratings will suffer if FOX puts on more football.

ABC ratings will climb if FOX puts on wrestling. It's a different audience, one that isn't going to be suddenly lost to ABC on Fridays since ABC wasn't pulling that audience anyways. The competition for the Friday audience becomes NBC and CBS effectively.

Vince has her main eventing Mania right now. They are ALL IN on Ronda Rousey, and if FOX is this interested in WWE, that's probably because FOX has firsthand experience with the drawing power of one of the only money stars in MMA.

Has ANYONE said this yet besides the guy that gets everything wrong on WWE?

Or is it just Big Money Meltz?

He hasn't said it yet. He said he saw other reports. Of course, you don't know because you've never actually read or listened to an Observer. You've just seen it out of context or secondhand and, like you do, assumed that means an actual accredited journalist referred to by other sports journalists as one of the best in his craft, is a charlatan because carnies hate non-carnies. And, legitimately, if you say anything else about CONFIRMED whatever involving Alexa Bliss, you have absolutely no room to talk about Meltzer.

Both of these are completely untrue.

And there were sources in the WWE (something Dave clearly doesnt have anymore) who said that about the CBMR.

10 years ago they combined into The CW
