How WWE's Newest Business Move Will Hurt Pro Wrestling |

-

It was a strange week for WWE heading into WrestleMania 41. The buildup to the show was lackluster at best. Nick Khan was calling WWE the underdog and taking shots at AEW in an interview. Triple H and Roman Reigns strangely decided to praise President Donald Trump in talks with the media. Then the WWE Hall of Fame started at 1 am and lasted until 4 in the morning. Finally, on Saturday all the focus looked like it would be on the WrestleMnia card, but then Triple H dropped a bombshell on the pre-show when he announced that WWE had purchased the Mexican wrestling promotion Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide. This is a big deal for WWE, but it is bad for professional wrestling. It's just the latest example that shows WWE is trying to take over wrestling and become a monopoly.
