3) Smackdown Star Praised Backstage By WWE Management
According to WrestlingNews.co, Sonya Deville has been getting a lot of backstage praise from WWE management.
The company is reportedly happy with her character and promo work as of late:
Deville has been feuding with Mandy Rose on SmackDown in recent weeks and has been praised by management for stepping up her character work and especially some of her recent promo work.
My Take:
- I am happy for Sonya. She has really taken her opportunity on Smackdown and has ran with it. It will be interesting to see if she ends up in the Women’s title picture at some point soon.
2) WWE Has Cut The Salaries Of Top Executives
According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, WWE has cut the salaries of its top executives.
Here is what Johnson wrote:
The cost cutting in World Wrestling Entertainment has not ended, PWInsider.com has confirmed.
A number of executives and officials were informed over the last 48 hours that their pay would be reduced going forward due to the company’s ongoing efforts to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on their business.
My Take:
- Another cost-cutting measure by WWE. This probably should have came first before releasing all of their Superstars. Would have probably looked better as a PR move.
