The mecca for professional wrestling may be the WWE, but they’re not the only game in town. Our special guest Matt Hardy is back to give an insider’s take on a different side of wrestling.
Samantha Daley leads us in, as Brian Gulish and Hardy talk the business side of the industry. Gulish asks smart questions, while Hardy, who has worked for promotions all over the world, helps shed a light on life inside and outside the WWE.
Depending on who you ask, the WWE Network has either been a huge success, or major letdown (sorry, UK). Hardy discusses the benefits for current and former talent, and how the WWE ultimately controls their own destiny.
Social media has changed the game in every outlet imaginable, and pro-wrestling is no different. Hardy talks about the pros of social media in relation to self-promotion, and jokes about what social media would have been like during the Attitude Era.
Gulish and Hardy shift the conversation to the rising independent scene. Hardy compares it to the territory driven days of yesteryear, and gives a behind the scenes, first-hand, look at a couple successful promotions.
As fans, we often overlook the business end of the industry we all love. Watch Gulish and Hardy hold an insightful conversation about the other side of wrestling.
