The follow up on Saudi Arabia:
-As of 9/30 (end of quarter) WWE had not been paid for Super Showdown. Show was being shown on delay bu around 40 minutes. Future shows were not discussed on the investors call.
-Vince got out with his crew of people. Lesnar had his own jet, which Heyman was on (that’s part of his deal). Hogan, Flair, Jimmy Hart, and Fury all got out. Cain stayed with the talent
-Lesnar was not scheduled for Smackdown. He did them a solid and went to the show. The angle of him going back to Raw was scheduled for Backstage on Tuesday as the ‘gigantic announcement’ they were planning.
-Talent felt they were being used as pawns and felt that Vince abandoned them and has once again made talent question how to get out of the company, much less wanting to return. It is not known nor denied that Vince knew this was going to happen.
-Talent also now knows that they can be replaced and while a better show gets put on with the same amount of audience.
-NXT group did not arrive until 5 minutes before the show started.
