My good friend Jerry Wiseman got my attention today on his wall...so..i responded with this. OK...now you struck a nerve with ME! I do not mean to get off on a rant here,,,,,BUT i have been preaching this to promoters since 1996...and i was some what new at that time. If the talent you are bringing in does NOT draw a crowd to justify the payoff....then what business sense does it make to book this talent anyway. Especially if they refuse to elevate your current roster. and then these so called promoters are stupid enough to book 3 to 6 other so called names in the biz that will not draw shit either. not really there fault...that is just what the market brings these days and really for the last 25 years or so if not longer. If u are not one of the top 10 WWE stars these days...u usually are not worth the price you are asking. BUT....as long as there are locker room jock sniffers aka promoters out there willing to pay it...these so called veterans will over charge for there services. I have told countless promoters over the years up front...i am not worth the money you are offering me. i will not draw you enough people to justify this payoff. after u pay my trans, hotel and feed me...u r already losing money on me. I am man enough and honest enough to admit it..and is one reason i rarely do out of town shows. i feel terrible if a show does not draw that i am on..even if i am not featured. But i here the vets blame the promoter for not promoting them properly...that is the only reason they did not draw...LOL oh well...that is my rant for this month. btw...my appearance fee for anything beyond 150 miles is $1500 plus hotel, trans and dinner. now you know better than to book me. LOL
