Missionary Thomas from the WrestlingSoup podcast did a break down of this video 2 weeks ago, and I almost put my fist through my computer screen while listening to it at work. Basically every possible bad thing you can think of in regards to WWE was covered in this 50 minute marketing conference.


  • Disingenuous charity promotion
  • Feminist bullshit
  • Considering kids and parents as the target audience, despite the average viewing age being 40
  • Ignoring the negative feedback of old fans because "they'll watch anyway"
  • Referring to soccer moms and children as "test groups" for feedback on storylines
  • Directly comparing WWE to Disney
  • The Divas Revolution "blowing up off the charts" with new characters being showcased in ways they never have before :mj4
  • Calling current storylines "sophisticated"
  • "Connect with your audience, listen to them, engage with them" with a picture of DANIEL BRYAN in the background :ha
  • Referencing ADAM FUCKIN ROSE as a SUCCESSFUL contemporary gimmick

I'll be adding more stupid shit to the bullet points as it returns to memory. Just know that most importantly, she gave a politically correct middle finger to Attitude Era and before fans, saying the show isn't designed for us. No wonder you're getting record low ratings you dumb ass bimbo.

You know it's going to be a steaming pile of shit when Vince states that Stephanie is "entertaining millions of people every week".

:maury

I'll listen to it in the mean time purely to hear what she has to say, so thanks for the share.

But you WILL watch anyway. How many times have you guys claimed in the past that this is the last straw yet here you are? Bunch of complainers just all talk no action. If you all stopped watching they would notice, but you cant help yourselves. Stand for something already.

But yea fuck this opportunist disingenuous brat. I dont begrudge trustfund babies or people with successful parents, but she has no talent or skillset of her own and just preys on people.

Damn she's worse than Vince. She's actually the problem with WWE. Can Hunter divorce her ass & fire her when Vince dies? Good grief! Adam Rose? Successful?
:HA

Why is she insulting Disney? Disney makes awesome shit like Avengers & Tangled. She wish!

Missionary >>>>

Stephanie is a big mark for herself and always makes a point of it to appear stronger and more in power then the wrestlers. THat's one of the worst things you can do in a product which is meant to be rebellious and edgy. Like if Austin was around today, would anyone mark out if Stephanie McMahon came out and put the guy in his place? That's exactly what she does.

Even worse, there's never any pay back from this - Steph rarely shows weakness and the few times she has, it's been in weird scenarios, like against Rhonda Rousey, whom isn't on the roster.

I think people like to play the blame game on this site, to be fair I do too, but usually Vince or HHH get the credit, I wouldn't be surprised if most of the time Stephanie is the one really behind the bullshit.

Wow.. unbelievable. I've been trying to avoid watching this for the last 2 weeks just so I wouldn't get mad but I think I'm past the anger and denial. I've accepted this shittiness and even though Triple H is probably the deplorable human being we think he is, He's our only hope for this company

Directly comparing WWE to Disney
This stupid bitch.. :MAD

All the kids will be flocking to see a magical experience like Star Wars in December, How many children does she think will be watching the TLC Pay Per View exactly?

I've tried to watch Steph's interviews but they all sound the same. If you aren't a child, you don't matter to WWE anymore. If you want to change it, stop watching. If you need a wrestling fix until WWE changes, watch Lucha Underground. They don't pander to children.

I would have banned her from all PR after this and the "Philantrophy is the future of marketing" Fiasco.

..But then that would make it hard for her to do her job of being "Chief Brand Officer". The Image of the company is her responsibility and embarrassing herself on a regular basis isn't what they need right now.

Make her the head of catering or something.

You know, I am not a Steph hater by any means. I actually feel like she doesn't really do much to affect things but just hearing her PR opinions would scare me if she actually had more power in WWE.

This really IS a load of crap.

The old fans don't watch anyway, THEY DON'T!

And Daniel Bryan as connecting with your audience? That's a joke, because you didn't even attempt to write anymore content for him as character development SummerSlam 2013 and on.

Adam Rose as as successful contemporary gimmick? Do you even watch your own product or have you not paid attention to him in ages? He's the LEAST OVER THING ON THE ENTIRETY OF WWE TELEVISION.

I hate to even go this route but thank goodness Vince wants to go the "pass on to a son route" and wants Triple H to have this instead.
