it's almost like there's way too many ppvs and no one cares about anything anymore
the big four are bigger than ever, but everything else feels super unimportant in comparison

If they are going to run all these tournaments they would be better off replacing some of these live events/PPVs with 2-3 hours episodes of the tournament content.
As it is the amount of PPVs is ridiculous.

What? You want more events that are all 4 plus hours long?
Funny thing is since the brand split started after Summerslam 5/6 of the brand pay per views have drawn very well. With this then it could be 5/7 with one Raw and one Smackdown doing bad attendance.
Why would people go to the shows? There are no stars to see.

So Finn's showing up tomorrow night at the end of the PPV, right? He should be healed up by now
He had a serious injury, he won't be back for a while

Because wrestling is fun and stars aren't the be all end all.

Punk put someone over as a part-timer
Wrestling at it most popular wasn't build on fun, it builds off stars. Promotion live and die on star. If star didn't matter than WCW would have died way early than they did.

Are you basing this on actual gate numbers or WWE's reportings? If it's WWE then I'd subtract 10-15K from that. IIRC the number in financials was below the 101,763 reported by WWE for Mania 32. The Vice article from a few weeks ago says the numbers, per the financials, was closer to 74,000 and 86,000.
Not wwe. Would they annound 7,000 in a building for a pay per view?
They announced 16,000 for hell when it was 13,500.

UFC isn't using the Women's Revolution hashtag. What kinda company is this?

Gall won? That's pretty good for him, since this means the guy doesn't revert to the background as the dude who beat Punk and then nothing else when he seems to be pretty talented and didn't just beat Punk on the grounds of 'Punk is old and inexperienced, anyone could do it'.

Vanzant with Roman Reigns-esque submission resilience.

I guess what would help explain it more is pre-sales versus tickets purchases that day.

I was going to say the same. I just don't know why. Surely stockholders etc know the actual numbers so whats the point.

Entertainment purposes, you all would know if you studied this shit.
Let's make them feel like they were apart of something spectacular! So announce 103k instead of 93k
