(I would laugh so hard if they released them. But to be fair, WWE is at a point where the wrestlers don't make much of a difference when it comes to ratings and PPV buys, so...) | Promote this thread! |             | BigDaddyLoco

Reposted on: 9.11.24 1110.44 | | Yeah, Meltzer's comment that they may never be back seems really weird. This seems like a very minor thing that may cost them a slap on the wrist. The worst thing that is going to happen is they'll get buried, which is basically what Sami's career already was until a month ago. | lotjx

Reposted on: 9.11.24 1822.13 | Smackdown would be fine without them. Whether for better or worse, the WWE has made sure that no wrestler(s) are above their brand. Their ratings would stay more or less steady and fans will just cheer for another indy favorite.
I really don't think they are going anywhere and it will work itself out, but the WWE tends to be in the catbird seat with these guys and the wrestlers know it. | Quezzy

Advertisers do njot care about how good the wrestling is on mo Me at or Tuesday night's, they just care how many people are watching. | Quezzy

Yes, I understood that the first time it was explained. But like I said, it depends on your definition of "fine". My own definition of fine, since I am not an advertiser but a fan of wrestling, is a show that I want to watch and the current state of Smackdown minus Owens and Zayn is not a show that I want to watch. Therefore, it is not "fine". | Rudoublesedoublel
