Why do many indie companies and indie fans hate WWE but leech off of wrestlemania week?
>>19642777because WWE uses NXT to counterprogram every major player on the indie scene, so the little guys return the favor.
>>19643296Anon this has been a thing longer than NXT has been around. Indie promotions all year long make their money with a 'fuck the fed' mentality. Then each and every year without fail they all book events around whatever city WWE is holding Wrestlemania at that year to piggyback and leech off of the massive crowd of wrestling fans WWE is drawing in. This is one of the few things I'll give AEW credit for in that they specifically don't partake in that and keep their shows wherever else they'd be that week regardless. But every other indie? Completely hypocritical parasites
>>19642777OVW literally puts #wwe #aew in their stream tags to draw more people
>>19643322exactly which indies are you talking about? I know GCW does that but I don't think any of the ones I like do anything specific for WM weekend.
>>19642777It's fucking hilarious. and then they have a raped bitch meltdown if wwe dares to put on a show on the same week as aew
>>19643322WWE has also been fucking over smaller companies since WAY before NXT was a thing.
>>19642777Smarks will never admit it but the fact Vince created WM weekend means he’s one of the biggest financial providers for every single independent promotion that participates in it
>>19642777they are active daysliding to defend aew and smark trash wrestlingexterminate all smarks from this world
I wonder how much seethe Vince caused because he made it a big thing in wwe to act like no other wrestling company exists. Must’ve been infuriating to be a small company trying to take shots at wwe for attention but it never even gets acknowledged since Vince acted like they don’t exist
>>19642777I went to a wrestlemania years ago and it was pretty fun. It was like a mini Olympics or world cup in the city. I went to a couple indie shows. I had more fun going around the city during that weekend
>>19642777>why would companies try to make moneyGee I don't know but you should get back to your job at the doctor store
>>19642777I remember reading that many indie promotions and wrestlers look forward to it since they get paid well during wrestlemania weekend instead of just barely getting by most of the year
>>19642777Triple H needs to do some jew tactics and sabotage any indies that try to leech during wrestlemania weekend
