Matt Hardy: Vince McMahon Tried To Make WWE As Affordable As He Possibly Could
Matt Hardy has shared his thoughts regarding the recent WWE ticket prices and agreed they’re going off the rails.
Speaking on The Extreme Life Of Matt Hardy podcast, his co-host Jon Alba asked Matt Hardy about the current trend of rising ticket prices in WWE.
Jon brought up Maven, who recently commented on the subject saying Vince McMahon made wrestling affordable for families. Hardy agreed with him and shared his own thoughts on Vince:
“Vince was out there to try and bring families in. That was his whole thing, especially once he changed it after the Attitude Era, when society changed a little bit, too. It wasn’t quite as wild west, once we started getting to the 2000s and the whole PG era. He was adamant, man.
He really wanted to appeal to children because he knows if there are children, [and] they get hooked on the product, they’re going to come, and their parents obviously got to come with them. They can’t just let the little kids go to this all by themselves, so the whole family has to cash in and buy tickets. He was adamant about doing that and attracting families, but also he did try and make it as affordable as he possibly could. He was cognizant of that fact.”
