T.V. Ads for Smackdown on Fox

By Scott Keith on 22 September 2019

What do you think of the T.V. ads the WWE is running for Smackdown on Fox that prominently feature several wrestlers who are retired/not full time anymore? Ex-Steve Austin, The Rock, John Cena, Ric Flair, etc. Do you feel these are counterproductive to the talent that is on the shows every week, or do you believe that the commercials aren't a big deal either way?


I think they're certainly setting up expectations for Fox that might be tough to match. Although I haven't watched anything on Fox in ages so I can't speak as to the commercials themselves. Really the only actual TV shows I've watched lately are Big Brother and Live PD and everything else I consume is on streaming services or YouTube.
