Shawn Michaels says that the WWE PG era is more profitable
WWE Chairman Vince McMahon has not made it to the Forbes list of billionaires this year and it could be due to the fact that WWE’s stocks have been pretty woeful. Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels was promoting his new book ‘Wrestling For My Life’ and spoke with ChristianPost.com on various topics including the PG era having the potential to be more profitable.
“It was very successful and lucrative for the guys in it at that time but when wrestling first went sort of mainstream so to speak in the 80s, with Hulk Hogan in it, that was certainly more PG than it was Attitude Era. I would say that way back when in the 50s when it was again on at primetime it was the Gorgeous George era, it was more, certainly more realistic but it wasn’t Attitude Era. People talk about the Attitude Era as if it was some kind of longstanding, it was a four-year run out of a line of work that’s been around for fifty-plus years. I would always have to say that ultimately everything is done more for the bottom line of making a profit. WWE is more profitable if it appeals to more people,” he said.
