1. Yes, absolutely. They don’t as of right now, but why couldn’t they? Make a huge spectacle of Stamford (or wherever they want it) being the home base or in my territory vision to have 2 huge shows. A lot of the talent lives in Tampa as it is, they have wrestling communities but I would want to move it somewhere else. NXT already has that flag.
2. Each team would travel together, not entirely sure how they travel now but in my no house show scenario would be fly in day before to do pre-show walk through and tweaks, show, fly home next morning. Raw scheduled would look something like Wednesday - Saturday is recovery/practice/training/med days. Sunday is travel, then an evening game plan walk through. Mostly down time. Monday Is the show. Tuesday Is travel and down time. If I had it to do private, I would... but I have no idea the cost vs. each. Taking care of talent while using cost to my advantage is my goal there. Obviously a partnership with an airline would be a high priority.
3. I wouldn’t have independent contractors, I do understand Why they do it. But the overall business suffers, so I can’t answer your question in that sense. My contracts would be 2-4-6 year contracts with options, a lot of percentage measureables that would allow talent to be more entertaining and not so much under the strict WWE Guidelines with social media and such. They would be salary with stips essentially. The company should handle the team bus bills, possibly lodging. But if I’m good (and I am, no idea about others) I would have exclusive relationships with lodging and travel that not only help us but helps the travel and lodging with ads, exposure, and revenue growth.
