"As I reported on Fightful Select this afternoon, HBO's Last Week Tonight is set to talk about WWE's independent contractor status. To what extent, I don't know. I've been led to believe that will be on tonight's show."
e-drones, get ready for the end of the WWE. AEW is taking over.
5 bucks says the overall segment isn't even about it. It will be briefly spoken about and then it will lead into something else.
Kayden Nelson
Weird there's this much salt over some lib wanting wrestlers to have a stronger bargaining chip for insurance and benefits like other wagecucks
Lincoln King
Is he still salty about Arabia?
Carson Stewart
WWE IS DONE.
Elijah Stewart
Seek sunlight.
Wyatt Evans
Nope, this will mean absolute shitters like The Revival will be even harder to fire than before
Ryan Ward
WWMEME. IS. OFFICIALLY. CANCELLED.

Jackson Sullivan
WWE wrestlers don't want a union. The main roster people get paid tremendously well
Landon Ross
Stable employment in wrestling hurts the fans badly, guys should be replaced every couple of years, not like The Miz doing the same shtick for 12 years
Juan Sullivan
They discussed their Saudi shows on two separate episodes, one of which had a four minute segment about them which ended with this promo: youtu.be/7rcKOWMLBmM
I think if WWE is targeted for this subject then a lot of the finger pointing is going to be in their direction.
Isaac Campbell
We're still watching DX and Taker and Kane. Your argument is invalid
Daniel Murphy
If it's regarding how 95% of the talent have to pay for their own rooms and travel expenses, that'd be pretty based desu
Isaiah Sanders
Because DX, Taker and Kane brought in millions of dollars for the company and helped the stock price soar.
Ayden Miller
Only for special appearances, idiot, and those guys were actual stars - it's just midcard shitters that need to be replaced
Tyler Kelly

>arguing for wrestler unions Yikes. Never gonna happen. It's an industry fueled purely by ego.
John Nguyen
Imagine working for a company that requires you to travel and you don't get any reimbursement on the travel expenses?
And then there's faggots like you that defend these business practices because you think someday you'll start your own business you've always been meaning to and don't want to deal with another hurdle.
Angel Jenkins
kys dumb mark, wrestling is an extraordinarily well paying profession even if youre a shitter
Joseph Cook
travel expenses are a pittance compared to what these guys can make. a literal shitter can make so much money nowadays selling t-shirts and junk all a union would do is make the entire business shitty because nobody would have any motivation anymore
Nathan Rogers
Fag knows he'll never amount to a mid level mid manager cuck. Have fun kissing your bosses cock tomorrow morning
Michael Reed
>Imagine working for a company that requires you to travel and you don't get any reimbursement on the travel expenses? You don't have to work for that company.
Aiden Rogers
this. nobody is holding a gun to these peoples heads. they should be grateful that exposure is so easy to attain in wrestling. a handful of bingo hall matches and people are hyping you up on social media if you're any good. there's nothing like that anywhere else in showbiz.
Gabriel Powell
>kys dumb mark, wrestling is an extraordinarily well paying profession even if youre a shitter you sound extraordinarily poor
ok dude, im sure you hold a well paying position with shitposting on asp late at night
Mason Rogers
so why don't these starving artist wrestlers just give up the dream and get a desk job with full benefits
Alexander Miller
>"Guys, did you know that professional wrestlers in WWE are independent contractors? No health insurance! WWE almost had a union once, but Hulk Hogan told the boss about it and he stopped it! I know, right! This Hulk Hogan!" *cues clip of Hogan saying nigger* >"Wow, I'm starting to think this Hulk Hogan guy is a real jerk!" *cues picture of Hogan and Trump and Vince and Trump* >"God dammit everyone! Fucking Bolan Drumpf!"
>nigger thinks timezones don't exist Now you sound extraordinarily poor and extraordinarily underaged
Hudson Parker
WWE wrestlers don't "work for a company". They are contractors.
Nathaniel Nelson
These rich people are employed by a richer person who isn't paying for their hotel rooms. Heres why that's a problem. Brilliant journalism Jon, you've done it again.
Dylan Ramirez

Colton Johnson
That sure was cringe.
Aaron Gonzalez
Did you know that actors are also contractors, and they typically have to buy their insurance as well? Only about 15% of SAG (the actors' union) members qualify for insurance, and the requirements include that you have to be at least 40 years old, have been a SAG union member for at least 10 years prior, and have made at least $13,000/year from acting gigs for 10 consecutive years?
Should WWE institute a similar wrestlers' union rules, or should they just demand that SAG accept WWE wrestlers for what they are: television actors? Then John Oliver can literally pay Hulk Hogan's medical bills for him!
Josiah Morris
based user with the hard data >n-n-no, all NXT signees should have full medical and dental!
Jackson Morales
Everyone should have it, but it shouldn't be on the employer to give it to them
Kayden Young
agreed, and if they don't like it, find another profession and stop trying to shit up our carnival soap opera
Jackson Bennett
Insurance is a scam. You're paying money for something you're not using. The insurance company then turns a profit, until you get sick, then they only have a portion of your money to use for you, or they raise the rates on everyone. It's a tax on the healthy and young, in order to pay for the morons who paid into the system but lived long enough, because....oh yeah, if you die, you don't get the money back, goy!
Insurance ought to be illegal. Instead, the idiotic SJWs demanded that everyone get forced into buying it LOL, jacking the price up even more.
Chase Ward
As someone who works in insurance, I am going to agree that this is 100% correct.
Anthony Perry
unironically true though. i drink, do drugs, and smoke and i haven't had to visit the doctor in over 10 years. once you hit 18 years old your immune system is strong enough to combat most trivial illnesses by itself
Hudson Watson

I like John Oliver unironically and I watch his show on youtube every week that he uploads for free with no ads, wow, it is almost like HBO does not care about making money with his show, holy fucking based, thank you HBO President (((Richard Plepler)))
Jordan Kelly
>Vince's wife is helping trump run America into the ground. >Why would Last Week Tonight would look into WWE??????????
William Allen
Vince should take this as a massive compliment, coming from that onions sucking faggot Oliver

'Hypnotic' does not refer exclusively to ESP phenomena. It can be anything like drugs, music, or TV that puts you in a content/sedative state of mind
Mason Turner

Ryan Harris
I will never in my life take any post seriously that unironically has Trump in Geralt cosplay. What the fuck is wrong with you people? How delusional can you be that a 72 year old man receives LITERAL hero worship to the point that he’s painted as a superhero. You want to talk about brain washing, you dumb fucking retards are already there dipshits.
Charles Cox
Trump is a kike puppet cult leader. I'm just trying to spread information on mass media manipulation from both sides
Ryan Cook
trump=/=trumpism trumpism will get him re-elected and the dream will continue 20 years from now. zoomers are being redpilled left and right
Ayden Rogers
I just cancelled my WWE Network sub after seeing this. I can’t believe the WWE would stoop so low. Save us Cody.
Michael Perry
I am still trying to figure out if Trump fans live him for some deep seeded homosexual issues or daddy issues for the need to be overly protected
BTW how shit is mainstream media to freely promote WWE but don't bring up the scam corporate structure
Much of it is the same reason WWE exist. They're marks for him, and view his antics as a show without thinking of the consequences.
Wyatt Butler
who?
Wyatt Morgan
Except that's Julian Assange and not (((Trump))), you twit. Have some respect for a man that actually did good for this world and is being persecuted for it.
Jeremiah Wilson
My wife's son, and I will no longer be supporting the WWE product
David Davis
I doubt that story is true, but I do agree with how formulaic the videos get. They're not at all educational, moreso an informative "hey, this exists" on a surface level delivery. And really, is it much different from how Yea Forums and other forums operate? For every well-intentioned post, there's 20 idiots parroting memes they don't really care to understand.
Brody James
Let's be honest, a lot of "news" nowadays are just "this is what you should be upset/scared about" views bait
