WWE Co-President George Barrios was a speaker at the 47th Annual J.P. Morgan Global Technology, Media and Communications Conference in Boston.
During the conference, he was asked if WWE considers All Elite Wrestling [AEW] as real competition.
Here is what Barrios said (h/t to Wrestling INC for the quote below):
“The best comment I’ve ever heard was from Reed Hastings who said, ‘Sleep is competition.’ He nailed it. You are competing for people’s time. So, whether it’s Fortnite, the NBA, Kung Fu novels – we are fighting for people’s time.
So, everyone is a competitor at everything. So yeah, AEW has announced and welcome to the game.”
