Internal Pressure on WWE Regarding SNME

There is a lot of internal pressure regarding Saturday Night's Main Event. NBC officials recently had some meetings with The McMahon's, and they expressed concern that WWE wasn't pushing the event hard enough on both RAW and ECW shows. Also note, WWE can't promote the event on Smackdown it is on a rival network.

There is one week to go, and WWE are coming off a show in March that was a major disappointment. SNME really needs to achieve a good rating with this week's show or else there may not be anymore WWE specials on NBC in the future.

I thought WWE's contract called for 2 Saturday night specials on NBC every year? What would they do instead of SNME?

I am a little surprised they haven't promoted the show more. It's this Saturday and they've barely mentioned it, last time they were hyping the show for several weeks.

Visit and shop for video games at my Amazon-based store, also get discounted HD DVDs while they last.

I think McMahon has dug too much of a hole for himself with all that's been going on.. The launch of ECW, trying to work around these drug policies, getting D-X back on RAW.. He's got way too much on his plate, hell they haven't even started to promote SummerSlam yet and they always have something going on by now for it..

Another reason why McMahon should have stayed out of the ECW booking process..

Vince should let Paul deal with ECW business. Then, he would be able to promote SNME, SummerSlam, and DX effectively. Perhaps he should be looking for a RAW GM? That would really help him in the long run.
