Host Christopher Harrington (@mookieghana) comes out of the wilderness and into your podcasting device with an unexpected episode talking about size of international TV contracts, impact of the UFC Sale on WWE Valuations, the impact of Great Britain’s decision to leave the European Union on WWE business and the loss of Gerrit Meier, formerly the president of WWE International.
I've begun writing articles over at Wrestling Inc. Here are my first three pieces:
June 21, 2016 -- WWE loses Key executive
Gerrit Meier quietly left WWE a few weeks ago. What's new structure and what impact might this have on overall WWE international strategy.
July 5, 2016 -- UK votes to leave EU; WWE impact?
The United Kingdom is WWE's largest international market. Will GBP currency woes impact WWE's international expansion plans?
I went through all of the WWE Earnings Calls (and conferences) available on the SeekingAlpha website. Some things I noticed:
Vince McMahon has said the word "wrestling" only once in almost ten years. (This isn't counting "World Wrestling Entertainment" but frankly, I don't think he's said that whole phrase at all.)
