WWE's Problem Isn't Age, It's Overexposure

02/05/21 • 91 min

Following the Royal Rumble, there has been a lot made of WWE's "age problem." The company featuring so many older performers vs. younger talent. While that's definitely an issue, we make the argument that the bigger problem isn't age, it's overexposure. Plus, we talk about WWE's 2020 earning report (record profits), a little on the Peacock/WWE Network deal, and some thoughts on this week's Wednesday Night War, including the new working agreement between AEW and NJPW. All of this, and more, in what we're calling the "Flu Pod" (Kyle was sick).
