In your opinion what is it going to take TKO to drop ticket prices for WWE? Because I checked pre-sale tickets for SmackDown in Austin for December 5th and the nosebleeds are over $100. I remember when it wasn't considered a luxury to attend WWE events and now it feels like it has become a luxury and it's upsetting that it has become to that
They won't until they have to. TKO took on an incredible amount of debt to acquire the UFC and WWE when those deals were made. They felt like they had a better monetization process and plan, and as it turns out they did. That's not necessarily great for the consumer in a lot of ways, but they effectively doubled the average ticket price and had the hottest ticket period in decades. So they'll keep them high until it makes financial sense for them to lower them.
Hey Sean I’ve seen Kilynn King active on her Instagram a little more lately after her injury. Any idea what her status is? Is she still signed to TNA? Is she planning a comeback or is she done? I don’t know how TNA handles injured talent
She is still signed to TNA according to people in the company that I asked. She also still appears on the company's roster page. She's been out of action for close to two years, and already hasn't appeared on TNA Wrestling in two years. She sustained a knee injury towards the end of 2023 or start of 2025. She ended up sustaining a second injury that set her back big time. I haven't heard anything about her retiring.
Any word on a Wardlow return date? I’ve been missing him.
Well, unfortunately, you're likely to be missing him for quite a while. He was feared to have sustained a torn pec at upon his return. The last I asked, AEW didn't expect him back in 2025. There were a lot of people really bummed out in the company that it happened after he missed so much time.
