Original Commentary

Why is Kimberly explaining this to Brisbane? Because if Lola explained it, she'd call it a promotion instead of a company and then I'd have to explain what a promotion is. Are there wrestlers who switched to a competing company but kept the same gimmick? I'm not really sure. Probably at least once - Terrence

Modern Commentary
As I've mentioned, I hadn't watched wrestling in a decade or so when I wrote this, but it's heavily inspired by the book The Death of WCW which details one of the ways a wrestling company can collapse.

Some will tell you that there are a lot of ways a wrestling company can die. Most of those ways boil down to "The audience lost interest and they didn't make a lot of money", but WCW was special. For a while, they were the top-rated wrestling promotion and had an unlimited budget courtesy of Ted Turner. Then suddenly they didn't. - Terrence
