WWE TV 05/06 - 05/13: Let's just cut 30% of all federal universities' budget

They also announced HHH/Orton for the Saudi show. LMAO.

Straight from the naughties.

But yeah, guys like Taker and Goldie who don't really need the money. That's a shitty thing to do, honestly.

they had trouble selling tickets to Raw in London today for the first time in forever.  Most of the upper deck was tarped off

I went to a house show right after Christmas and they didn't even sell out the lower bowl.

I've heard from a few places that Taker really does need the money. I don't know the specifics, but I can only imagine what kind of alimony he has to pay after two divorces. That would explain why he's started hustling for outside bookings (and charging ridiculous money from what I hear) as his in-ring career winds down.

His obvious mobility issues probably aren't cheap to get treated for quality of life either.

[El-P]

Wow. These guys who won shitload of money all their lives and "need the money" at 50 ? Fuck their rich and famous life. I'm allright being where I am, nowhere socially, that is.

[Mad Dog]

Divorce probably drained him of 50-75% of his earnings.

[El-P]

Erasing an ugly tattoo can't be THAT expensive.

[Mad Dog]

With US divorce laws he would be expected to provide alimony due to his earnings. Those could have easily been 10 million+ depending on what he was making at the time or had in the bank. If he made 50 million for his whole career he might have lost 30 of it to those settlements.

[El-P]

That was a joke. And a good one too I thought. Don't remember that ugly ass Sarah tattoo around his neck ? (I'm glad I never tattooed the names of my loved ones anywhere. How dumb would I look now. How to explain that to the next one ? Damn...)

[Mad Dog]

That was the worst part about the DDP stalker angle.

In other news, did Vince also wrote this last season of Game of Thrones ?
