The WWE is basically an ad seller with some wrestling, lol. Every match has a different sponser. They have a Prime station on the outside. The ring post, skirts, and ring boundaries all have revolving ads.
Well yeah its always been that way. But I don't recall one quite as fully blatant as this. Every square inch will be covered in ads, but not entire basic skits to this level.
But maybe I'm just filtering them all out of memory as well.
A few years ago there was a Mountain Dew Pitch Black Match. They shut off the lights and the wrestlers wrestled in a day-glo ring, covered in Mountain Dew ads
Guess I'm just out of the loop too much, so my opinion is worth little here. But probably for the best, because I'm far too cynical to enjoy anything if I see that.
I suppose I'll just rewatch my old attitude era tapes some more.
I can't tell if I'm more excited because its pretty awesome or cringing because its so obviously a marketing campaign being shoved in our face.

Pure Dorito Pope level, nice.

Then there was the time they had Dolph Ziggler wrestle dressed as Colonel Sanders.
It may be rose colored glasses, but I suspect it got worse after Rahm Emmanuel's brother bought the promotion.
