If Vince McMahon had gone Bi

By Scott Keith on 20 January 2024


Scott,

Reading items from the time period it appears the the Wrestling Classic in 1985 was supposed to kick off a string of bi-monthly pay-per-view extravanganzas for the World Wrestling Federation. If Vince McMahon had gone this path how different is the Hulk Hogan WWF Title reign? Does the house show business become secondary or does Vince attempt to focus on special concept shows to prevent house show fallout? Perhaps most importantly would the term WrestleMania be thought of as: 'Oh yeah…The MSG closed circuit show.' if the ppv model had changed?

I think it would have driven them out of business to be honest. The market wasn’t ready for it and they would have over saturated the market and killed it off 3 years before it peaked.
