HHH is already trying to plant the seed for the rematch next year. I hope they go in a different direction.

Thats what I got from the Stone Cold/Triple H moment on Raw...it definitely sounded like they were going rematch...Cena vs Rock at WM 28 in Miami...the Rocks hometown...Miz vs Stone Cold Austin...might be alright

The New WWE Expands Beyond Wrestling, New Marketing Plan Revealed

It was reported last week that WWE dropped World Wrestling Entertainment as their name in an attempt to move past the boundaries of being labeled a professional wrestling (a term which has also been dropped) organization.

They issued a press release this morning, outlining their future plans and revealing a new marketing tagline. They also acknowledge Triple H's new corporate role:

The New WWE® Expands Beyond Wrestling

STAMFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--To better reflect the company’s global entertainment offerings, World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE: WWE) announced today a new business model for future growth, including formally rebranding itself, WWE.

“The new business model of the company better reflects what WWE is all about, being a global entertainment company”

Two key components to WWE’s brand expansion will be the active pursuit to acquire entertainment content companies and the outsourcing of WWE’s core competencies – television and film production, live event production and licensing. As part of the new business model, the company will also focus on the development of new television products including scripted, non-scripted and animated programs, as well as the launch of a new WWE network in the next 12-18 months. The first new program of the brand expansion is Tough Enough®, WWE’s non-scripted program that debuted on the USA Network on Monday.

“The new business model of the company better reflects what WWE is all about, being a global entertainment company,” stated Vince McMahon, Chairman and CEO, WWE. “We will always be loyal to our core business that made WWE a globally known entity, however, the future of WWE will be the addition of new entertainment content opportunities beyond the ring.”

This new rebranding initiative will be highlighted through a national consumer and business-to-business advertising campaign entitled “Bigger. Badder. Better.™” The campaign kicked off at WrestleMania® XXVII on Sunday and will be featured on cable TV, print and online.

In addition to focusing on the expansion of the company, the company will bolster its core business with the launch a new talent development department headed by Paul “Triple H®” Levesque. The new department will put a greater emphasis on worldwide recruitment, training and character development to identify future WWE Superstars and Divas. The first recruit acquired under Levesque’s new department was the signing last month of future WWE Superstar, Sin Cara™, formerly known worldwide as Mistico.

I liked Tough Enough a lot more than I thought I would...although it's fairly obvious that Miss USA is going to get a contract...It's not so obvious who will win. That chick with 11 years experience needs to go. I am rooting for the guy with the afro! Can't believe the Miz called him Buckwheat on RAW, lol!

In all honesty with all the numerous deaths in pro-wrestling I'm actually very surprised that Scott Hall and Jake Roberts are still alive.

I started to watch it, but cut it off. It's sad. I was a huge Hall mark back in the day. Great look, solid in ring worker, charisma, tons of potential....He's had that monkey on his back for ages. It's going to kill him soon.

That was completely bad show n poor taste for any1 including Hall to go out in front of that crowd and try to perform...management should have saved him from himself...the sad thing to me is that all involved with the promotion saw his obvious condition and still let him TRY to put on the show...the show must go on...but damn not like this!

whats sad about this is that he probably did it so that he could get paid for the night.Alot of these old school wrestlers have to go on cause if not they cant even eat for that night.And with all the issues Hall has been through,hes more then likely spent every dime he has.
