Open the Voice Gate - Rewind and Rewatch 19 - Open the Ultimate Gate 2011 Aug 10, 2020

Show notes

Welcome back to Open the Voice Gate - Rewind and Rewatch, where Case (https://twitter.com/_inyourcase) and Mike (https://twitter.com/fujiiheya) are Rewinding and Rewatching the Dragon Gate USA era of shows.

It is time to close out Wrestlemania Weekend 2011 with Open the Ultimate Gate 2011 from Atlanta's Presidental Ballroom on 4/3/2011. After a short timeline to catch everyone up to speed and to see how much Mike remembers of this Wrestlemania, the pair sit down and review the final show in Jon Moxley's run in DGUSA!

It's a big era shifting show as on Ultimate Gate 2011 we see the debut of D.U.F. as a team, the supposed final show of Austin Aries in DGUSA, an United Gate match with two divergent opinions, and a very impromptu double main event, where if Akira Tozawa defeats Moxley in a No DQ match, his scheduled match against YAMATO becomes for the Open the Freedom Gate!

Case and Mike round out the show talking about the tenure of Jon Moxley in DGUSA, did DGUSA make the wrong decision with the Freedom Gate, the treatment of Ronin over Mania Weekend 2011 and a lot more.

The show review begins at 00:10:55.

Wrestlenomics Radio: The Best of WWE Excuses Aug 08, 2020

Show notes

After helping WWE complete major increases in the value of its U.S. TV deals, WWE has hired Nick Khan to be its new President and Chief Revenue Officer. His hiring, and the introduction of other executives like new CFO Kristina Salen, comes as TV viewership is in unprecedented decline and there's ambiguity whether the popularity of the brand is being hindered by COVID-19, or by some broader problem with creative.

Plus, a study of quarter-hour data shows there are certain quarters that are likely to gain viewers. Unlike NXT's women's roster, women on AEW's roster seldom appear in those viewer-friendly quarters. Are women in AEW not put in those positions because they're not over, or are they not over because they're not put in those positions?
