Dragon Ball Z Uncensored

The new CFO of WWE, Michael Selick, revealed in Financial Week that the company is exploring the possibility of establishing separate WWE promotions running full-time in separate international markets. If everything went ahead it would go so far as to include separate TV tapings and storylines for each region, turning WWE from an overseas novelty into a local promotion.

Things are still in the preliminary stages but Vince McMahon has discussed it in detail with Stephanie, John Laurinaitis and others in the inner circle. The territories mentioned include a 'Pacific' region covering Japan, South Korea, China and Australia, a 'Hispanic' territory for Puerto Rico, Mexico and South America, and a European territory, with perhaps a Russian one at a later date. Meanwhile, in the USA, there would be two touring brands, most likely Raw and ECW, with Smackdown becoming the Hispanic brand as it is already well established in the market. Big pay increases would be given to senior agents and creative team members to move themselves and their families overseas, with potential performance bonuses depending on how well business goes. It would start off with a TV executive producer with experience of the region working closely with one agent and one writer who would be running the territory. There would also be a crew of wrestlers, who would also be expected to move their families overseas. Paul Heyman's name has actually been mentioned in connection to the Pacific region.

Shane McMahon, along with Selick, is working on a business plan for the venture, which remains in its formative stages. Potential drawbacks include the cost of producing WWE calibre shows, around $500,000 per week, and how TV stations in areas like Mexico would respond to the price. There is also the danger of international markets already beginning to get overexposed. Recent Japanese tours have not performed particularly well, there were concerns over the number of Australian tours, while advances for the next batch of Mexican dates have been well below expectations. Also, though WWE can get away with charging high prices for their shows at the moment as it is a novelty, doing so repeatedly would not help when taking on promotions like CMLL or AAA.

If it did come to pass then a lot of new wrestlers would of course be hired, as there would be a minimum of five brands. They are looking at promoting each market using both established WWE stars and top babyfaces based on ethnic backgrounds. Carlito, Mistico and Mysterio would be assigned to the Hispanic brand as top stars, they would look for a top Asian and Australian babyface, and guys like Regal, Finlay, Harry Smith and Paul Burchill could be assigned major roles in Europe. They would also likely raid the local markets in Japan and Mexico, whilst bringing back more of the '80s and '90s stars to make up the numbers. The only sure thing about the creative team members is that neither Stephanie McMahon nor Brian Gerwitz would work internationally. Gerwitz would likely become the chief writer of the USA brands, while Stephanie would hire more TV writers with Hollywood experience. Word is that the interntaionaly territories would be handled by Shane, with Vince concentrating on domestic business, though many have suggested that Vince's personality means he would want to be involved everywhere anyway.

This is also my journal thread.

[Seru]

That word filter is a godsend.

[Jason]

If that's tl;dr, it says that WWE is going to split into five separate brands, each one existing locally in different regions of the world (North America, Europe, Asia, Mexico, etc. [although they're labeling them based on ethnicity which is awesome]) making it the most powerful entity in the world.

FTUW should look into this possibility.

[Jason]

Seru, every single post you have made in my vicinity since I returned has been incredibly distressing in its vague resemblance to a threat or warning.

[Seru]

That's nonsense.

I have a heart-on for Jason Gallop!

[Seru]

Anyway, this is the worst possible idea imaginable.

Their talent pool is already spread thin and pandering to specific cultures will only serve to alienate other potential demographics.

You know, the ones that have money.

Smackdown! is already the known as the niggers and spics show, count your blessings while you can.

[Yogurtman]

The word filter is a magical thing.

This would actually make more sense for FTUW as the American market is by necessity separated from the rest of the world.

[Jason]

I guess I'll just up and admit that I don't know what the word filter did to this thread.

[Yogurtman]

Look for places where Vince's daughter is mentioned.

[Jason]

Of course I saw it as soon as I posted.

I've noticed the LazyTown-centric filters but couldn't think of it how it applied.

You have to watch it to the end.

[Stupid Fucking Faggot]

Jason, we need to talk about LT. There have been some new episodes from the new season and WELL, I'm worried about MY YOUNG LADY. Not Robbie though. He's fucking more FUCKING amazing than ever.

Anyway, it's amazing how Big Fagot has managed to set up an automated comedy system.

[Spamdini]

So they use(d) Kamehamehas in WSX?

[Supah Ted]

OH MAN THE SPECIAL EFFECTS IN WSX IS SO AWSOME EVERYONE NEEDS TO SUPPORT THIS SHOWS ITS GOING TO BE BIGGER THAN WWE!!!

[Supah Ted]

oh wait it got cancelled lol

[Magic Juan]

Hahahahahah, God, the sudden Kamehameha

[Jason]

I was always more into the show for Sportacus and Robbie than Stephanie, so I doubt I'll be as crestfallen as you are about this. In fact, I knew from the moment I saw it that this day would come and in another two years they'll probably replace her with some other kid.

Too bad the same won't happen to the puppets.

[Stupid Fucking Faggot]

I don't know if I'll be able to watch the show with a new girl.

It will just be too painful. THE FEELINGS AND MEMORIES.

Anyway, it probably won't be an issue because the show is circling the drain as it is, if the way they're treating it is any indication. They show it about twice a week nowadays, and they're really "meh" about even that. New episodes are out and they're not even bothering to show them.

I think once this new season is over, that's it.

Fuck, somebody needs to feed Julianna some hormones or something and make her RED HOT LOLI again.
