Official Wrasslin' Thread (renamed to reflect the discussion)

I am aware of their reputation, but at the same time, who got the scoop on the WWE's plan/desire to make Adam Cole a heel manager on the main roster? Ringside News, and they said they sourced that from a member of the WWE creative team just as with the Big E title win thing here now. Meltzer then came behind and confirmed the "Cole as heel manager" news. So maybe they do actually have a legitimate source (now). It just defies logic that the WWE would be more concerned about AEW than MNF showing back up and taking 17.3% of Raw's 18-49 demographic in one single night.
But MNF does the same thing every year. It's already a foregone conclusion. AEW is just something else that could eat into their market share that wasn't factored in previously. I get they like the Monday night slot, but when football rolls around, that market share will always drop no matter what they do.
