Okay, I know this sounds crazy, but is it possible that announce tell us wwe money situation? In the Attitude Era days, announce tables were broken every week. As the year's went by, the amount of the breaking of tables reduced dramatically.
I read that Announce tables cost between $5,000-7,000. This shows that WWE back then were not afraid to destroy their property.
Do not hate on me, this was just a suggestion

They just pulled the highest WrestleMania buyrate in history. Maybe it's just a sign that the product is dumbed down and weak? Don't read too much into it.

 

[kokepepsi]

ain't the stock at an all time low

 

[Tony Tornado]

LOL Those tables do not cost 5000$. Where did you get that ridiculous number?

 

[TKOK]

No way those things cost 5000 dollars. maybe the equipment does but not the tables.

 

[John_Sheena22]

$5,000 table? damn...

 

[Hotdiggity11]

Or maybe breaking announce tables lost their luster [Which they did]?

I wouldn't be surprise the WWE wants to save money, but there is no way those tables cost $5,000.

 

[RyanPelley]

Those tables, regardless of how much they cost, are like 4 pieces... "Breaking through a table" was just the sides falling out. Snap them back in...

Maybe they stopped doing it ALL THE TIME so that when it does happen its SOMETHING NEW, FRESH AND EXCITING!

God forbid the WWE actually tries to limit things like that these days.

I remember a time where every WWF pay per view main event involved a wild brawl up the entrance way, into the crowd, back into the ring, culminating with the table being destroyed in some way shape or form. What happened? It became a tired act. That's why you don't see it every show anymore.

Nothing that describes the current era.

Russo had a thing for breaking tables, according to Cornette. Maybe a bigger difference, than budget..... And $5000 tables? :lmao

 

[Xander45]

There was a time when Kane would chokeslam somebody through an announce table every week, kinda got stale after a while.

 

[Erza Knightwalker]

$5000? :lmao

What a joke. I bet the equipment on the table is pretty expensive, but the tables themselves? I highly doubt they cost that much.

 

[Punkhead]

Breaking announce tables = ratings

 

[bananakin94]

No way that tables cost 5000$ they're made out of freakin plastic

 

[DaftFox]

When was the last time someone went through one? Was it Cena/ADR or Cena/Kane?
