Quotes About Business

I certainly think you could look at the business side of how WWE was run, which was as a conservative company with little debt and strong cash balance.

The strategy is obviously a business decision to have limited advertising on the WWE Network. We want subscribers to know that there won't be commercial breaks during scheduled programming, so your shows won't be interrupted.

Regardless of the perception that the talent may have or the Superstars may have, WWE's business model is 'give the fans what they want.'

I know my way around the WWE. I know at least a little bit about everything and our business model, and I feel comfortable there, although I still learn every day.

The thing is, in the WWE, we have the WWE title, the World title, the United States title, the Intercontinental title, the Divas title, the Tag Team titles. And I feel like, in this business, when Mr. Perfect had that Intercontinental title, that was the belt we saw as the stepping stone to becoming 'the man.' The franchise of the WWE.

A lot of people are successful in this business because of a catchphrase or athletic ability or charisma or wrestling; Ric Flair is the personification of all of those things, much like his daughter Charlotte, as she is already a multiple-time champion after only a few years in the WWE.

When I finally get the chance to say what I want, to talk about where we're going from here on out, when my voice, my words, become the measuring stick for WWE, I think that's the moment that's going to reinvent our entire business.

Really, I didn't even want to go to WWE in 2001. I knew that it wasn't my favorite style, my favorite showcasing of my abilities, but it was definitely the best business move. At the time, there was nowhere else to go anyway - ECW was gone, WCW was gone. So, when I first came in, I was seriously frustrated trying to adapt.

Being born into the business, I had the connections. A lot of guys aspire to be professional wrestlers, but you need to get trained the right way. And then, once you're trained, you need to get to that next level, and really, the WWE is the only place to do it.

My business wouldn't be doing as strong as it is without the support of WWE.

Of course I'm not stupid enough to think that we could take on WWE head-on and win, because they're too big of a monster.

When you're by yourself and not with WWE, you are your own business. And I was very successful in that business because of all the lessons I learned.

I built my business, and WWE brought my business in. I want to be successful in my business and, in turn, make WWE successful.

I obviously wanted to keep wrestling and stay in the business. The opportunity came up with WWE, and it's been an incredible experience.

To me, I think I've always carried that type of WWE style with me throughout my career, even before I got here, so the transition hasn't been that difficult. I've been enjoying the transition, to be honest with you, because in my opinion, this business evolves all the time, and it changes all the time.

Vince and WWE, they're not fresh. Yes, Vince does big business. They have the best talent in the world, but they have no fresh ideas. They should be selling out every arena.

WWE always thinks in a business mindset.

My first YA novel, not many people have read. It's a fickle business. There's a degree of timing and luck involved.

Yachts are job creators.

Once the smoke of the market crash clears off, you know, the Internet will pick back up and go. Take a look at what's happening to some of the big companies like eBay and Yahoo, the publicly traded stocks. You know, they're all coming back up off the mat now.

Yahoo! is the only company with both scale and leadership in branded and search advertising.

In market valuation, Yahoo is worth about as much Walt Disney and the News Corporation combined.

I said from the very beginning, 'Yahoo should position itself as a technology innovation company, not as a media company.'

Facebook, Google, Apple, Yahoo - there's a common theme. None of these companies ever sold. By staying independent, they were able to build a great company.
