| [b:post_uid0]1. How will you get your product out there? Stay in one location? Travel throughout the US? UK? Canada? [/b:post_uid0]
I think you have to stay in one location until a wider audience is ready to accept it. If you have the talent for travel and selling tickets, then by all means.
[b:post_uid0]2. TV deal. PPV style like TNA/NWA or cable like the WWE. What night would you show it on TV? Up against Raw or Smackdown or all alone. Would you try for the weekends or is that male target demographic suicide?[/b:post_uid0]
It's hard to compete with Smackdown or RAW. WWE would probably stock up the program you were trying to compete with, thus making it nearly impossible to get anywhere. I would make it on a Tuesday until you can get to a higher level. Given what WWE is doing these days, I don't think it would be too hard to go up against them. Even if you couldn't beat them, you could probably steal a lot of their fans.
[b:post_uid0]3. Announcers: Who do you have in mind?[/b:post_uid0]
I wouldn't mind seeing some ex-wrestlers. Joey Styles would be good too. I'd love to see Flair and Joey Styles.
[b:post_uid0]4. You have the access to steal 6 wrestlers outside of StoneCold, HHH, Undertaker, The Rock, Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle. Who would you take to represent your franchise?
Would you go for high profile guys or ones that may shine brighter under your vast skills?[/b:post_uid0]
Chris Jericho, RVD, Kane, Orton, Mysterio and Benoit. Kane might seem like a weird selection, but I think his character has enough fans that people could really take interest to him. If you put him on your show and built him up the sky could really be the limit for him.
I think most WWE fans are dying to see Kane become that mythical monster once again, and to really kick some ass. If you were to have Kane on your show and give them that...then I think you'd steal a big chunk of their fan base.
[b:post_uid0]5. Are you the head booker?[/b:post_uid0]
Mick Foley would be my top selection (the idea which I gave to Drunksader, which he is now pretending is his own). Foley knows the business more so than anyone and he knows how to cut through the bullshit and the egos. I think other wrestlers could trust Foley a great deal, and feel like their character was being handled in a way that was important.
If it wasn't Foley, I would say me.
[b:post_uid0]6. What would you call your promotion?[/b:post_uid0]
Miakal Wrestling Federation (joke). |
