I think it's too soon to answer most of these, to be honest. In my opinion, you need to be fully removed from the eras of everyone before you can answer these questions. Daniel Bryan's historical importance, for example, is still a story being told. It's incomplete. Everyone used to argue Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels as these major important figures historically because they were medium-sized guys being pushed on top; however, they were exceptions within the same system more than they actually changed the system. The lesson there is that when you try to write a narrative too soon, it's easy to get it wrong.

The interesting thing about this is that the Us vs WWE program is still going hard. There's just not a wrestler representing the fans in that struggle anymore. To an extent, NXT does and I suppose if they do an Invasion angle with the All In crew, they will be a short-term representation of that. But Bryan still seems like he would be well-positioned to be the babyface that represents that struggle since no one else is really doing it.

As long as viewership drops at a slower rate for WWE programming than for most other television, they're in a good place. Obviously, they need to deliver viewers, but Fox was interested in them as original LIVE programming more than because they thought they'd be this huge ratings juggernaut. I don't know if I worry too much about the aging viewers, if only because I don't look in a WWE crowd and see a bunch of people in their 50s. I'd be interested in knowing the average age of Network subscribers and people who attend live events and buy merchandise. I would imagine that it's more telling about the future. Wrestling has always attracted an older audience that spends no money on any of it, but just views it as a TV show. Less young people are watching everything under a traditional Nielsen model, so it makes sense. Whether they take a public stance on it or not, expanded rural broadband and net neutrality being reinstated would probably be very good for their business. The future of online piracy law is really hard to predict and I'm not sure what the impact will be there.
