When Vince stops making money. Vince wants to make money. Vince doesn't care how bad his product is, as long as it is making money.
When does it stop?

It stops when the money stops coming in. As consumers, that seems to be the one thing we have forgotten - nothing changes as long as your wallet keeps opening. Think of Apple - there is a new iPhone out every 10 months or so and there are always issues. Why are there always problems with it? Why don't they test and fix it before the release it? Because every time they release a new iPhone, it sells out right away. If you would release a phone now and sell a million, then work on the problems or hold off and fix the problems but maybe lose sales, what would you do? wwe is no different - over a million people give them $9.99 a month or more for the wwe network each month. Wrestlemania still sells out every year. When is the last time you saw a Raw or Smackdown that was half empty? As long as fans keep supporting them, they won't change they have no reason to. Change takes money but doing the same old costs nothing. You want change? Don't support them. Don't watch the shows, don't buy any merch including dvd, simple cut them off. Once the funds starts to dry up, they will change as they will have no choice but until then, they will just keep going.

Just because someone doesn't work for the WWE doesn't mean they're not good enough for it. There are many wrestlers who work in the indy scene and are miles better than any of the WWE talent.
I watch Ring of Honor on a weekly basis, and the show that's produce in one hour is way better than three hours of Raw. I've watched more TNA than WWE these past few months, and I'm not ashamed to say that. The talent is better, and the fans are always interested in whoever is in the ring. Whether it be a diva or a superstar
The only reason WWE is worth watching right now is because of Seth Rollins, which is not me being biased. He's truly the best active WWE wrestler in the WWE.
You're right, I'm sure those indy workers travel by car across the country for $150 a night for the fun of it.
I think I see your problem...
The video I shoot on my Sony Handycam has better audio and sound than ROH. Don't tell me ROH produces a better show.
No he's not. Just because he can do flippys, that doesn't make him the best. Rollins has done quite well in the main-event, no doubt...but he's not the best.

You are talking to walls on this forum. When you are dealing with WWE Marks, VKM can do no wrong. Their knowledge of the sport of Professional Wrestling begins and ends with WWE. If you ask some of the admin who were the only holders of the IWA Tag straps, they probably would not know what the IWA was! (FYI, Eddie Einhorn's promotion in the 70's). Some of these guys are into the Hollywood glitz and glitter, the runways and opening night embience, the paparazzi and the fireworks, then they are in a good fight.
As for your post: WWE is NOT about wrestling. It is about ENTERTAINMENT FIRST. We DVRd Smackdown, and watched it last night. I had the good sense to watch my recording of RoH before watching SD. I saw THREE very good matches, and one quick promo. Like Trips, I do enjoy the Briscoes. Jay's promo post match with Adam Page was quick and to the point. Roderick Strong's match with Dijak was cool. Addiction vs Future Shock was sick. Loved the interference from Kanellis and the Kingdom. As for Smackdown? It felt like it was one long promo after another. Thank God for Neville vs. Steen, er, Owens. Good match. But, a great promo artist could have done promos far quicker and with more impact than Rollins and Wyatt did. That Divas nonsense made me go to YouTube to get me a little Command Bolshoi action. FYI, she is a wrestler, not a ballet company.
I do commend you for seeking out other companies. If you turn to YouTube, you will find a lot of nice gems. I watched a match between Chris Hero and Darewolf PJ Black from Upstate New York. So what if it was in a firehouse before 300 people? You do not need glitz and glitter and have soap opera writers to have a great match and tell a story. But, of course, the WWE Marks and Lifers Society that runs things around will say that they suck
because they did not do it on RAW, SmackDown or Superstars. They will proudly beat their chests, and tell you that they are so happy to drop $9.99 a month for their WWE Network. Mark Madden is very correct about folks like that.
As for when does it stop? When people who ARE fans of Professional start buying WWE stock. Gain 5% as a faction, and you can start shenanigans. The WWE Network is only going to keep fueling McMahon to the tune of $240 MILLION a year. If he loses some of it, it means nothing. However, if during a reorganization meeting, the fans start enough of a ruckus, watch VKM shit in his pants. He will HAVE to listen to the Pro Wrestling fans. Until that happen, he will laugh all the way to the bank.
