Important EGG news
Added 2021-11-22 23:21:54 +0000 UTCCleopatra's egg left Survivor Series as the situation with the most stakes. Tonight, WWE extends their promotional deal with Red Notice.
We're told that one of the primary plans going around as of today was Austin Theory to be tied into it, with him getting some sort of opportunity out of the angle. Originally we're told the pitch was "much worse" than whatever the final plan will be.
We're told that that the price tag associated with promoting Red Notice on WWE programming to this degree is "insane," with some backstage hearing it was rumored to be in the seven figures.

You know WWE is in trouble when they care more about getting promotional deals with companies to promote DURING their wrestling events. The zombie match was silly--I know it was a big pay day, but it was obvious and silly. And then they decide Pizza , Red Notice and sucking up to the Rock was the most important thing. At what point is every wrestler is dressed like a nascar driver with a jump suit with patches from every sponsor? Nick Khan can make deals, but he has no idea on what a true superstar wrestler is worth, I think because he'd rather have anybody than pay a true superstar.

2021-11-23 00:10:02 +0000 UTCI'd usually be very nEggative about something like this, but omelet it play out. I hope they poached a fun storyline from a better written show, like N-Eggs-T.

2021-11-22 23:31:50 +0000 UTCY'know, if the story is Theory deciding to play private detective to find the egg that might work? We saw on NXT that goofy himbo is character type he's genuinely great at
