10 Best Things WWE Could Do With The Crown Jewel & Saudi Arabia Money
10. Workers
It's a formery fervent complaint of WWE's talent maintenance that's been allowed to burrow back under the surface over the past few years, but it remains utterly absurd that an organisation that asks as much physically from its 'independent contractors' without giving them the benefits that should be entitled to all employees. And WWE should start with actually making the wrestlers employees.
Yes, it would be perhaps the single biggest business alteration in the history of the company. But then they're doing the single biggest business deals in the history of the company. The money on the table is beyond the 1980s boom, the 1990s rebirth and even the late 1990s stock market floatation. These are fees and figures that could allow Vince McMahon to f*ck the XFL up twice has badly as he did the last time and still be a billionaire afterwards.
A quick check of the company's corporate website reveals a rewards and benefits package in keeping with a global corporate brand WWE's size. The continued resistance to extending these perks towards the talent remains unethical and unwarranted. Never mind some good coming from the Saudi Arabia, this would almost make the event positive and palatable.
