Wasn't it basically the same idea that Tiktok is now?
Hunter Roberts
>Tout was an online social networking service and microblogging service that enabled its users to send and view 15-second videos, known as "touts."
Gen Y didn't have short enough attention span for it.
Joshua Cruz
Or the streaming/video capabilities. Plus we had sex irl with women
Brayden Baker
not really, didn't have anything resembling modern video editing. you basically recorded a greeting on your 240p smartphone camera (this was like 2011)
Carson Smith
And yet we were all happier
Landon Ramirez
Yeah. And Vine before that.
Logan Gutierrez
The only time in WWE’s entire history they have been ahead of the curve
Sebastian Wilson
Did WWE stop doing NFTs? It was the once instance they were up to date on things
Ayden Miller
shane wanted to stream wwecw on the website in the mid 2000s
Owen Wood
Imagine the record profits WWE would have had this blown up and became what tiktok is now.
Dominic Watson
Shane has always been based. If Steph had never been born we’d all still be sports entertained
Isaiah Morris
Are NFT’s still a thing other than amongst the terminally online?
Daniel Sanchez
Stephanie said on a recent earnings call that they're "exploring the Metaverse"
Tyler Lee
It got Jannetty'd by Vine
Blake Reyes
This. Touts were too long. They'd show WWE people's Touts which were 30 seconds and they'd have 10-20 seconds of dead air. Vines being 15 seconds turned out to be the right amount of time for microvlogging.
Adam Bennett
I'm on LinkedIn all day for work. Yes, all of the business influencer types are on the NFT train.
Easton Price
Remember when they tried to make their own social network?
Samuel Smith
No, wtf is this? Old internet was so much comfier than this streamlined consumer web. Every bunch of crazies had their own play pen and they stayed put.
Andrew Roberts
didn't Vine take off right after this? They almost had the right idea
Nathan Green
>gimmicks that were ahead of their time
It’s Vince’s fault for giving up
Adam Lee
There were big forums and every wrestler allegedly had their own account that they didn't actually use. I'm surprised they didn't have people posting as the wrestlers. It was a shitshow.
Wyatt Rivera
...
Jose Sanders
I like Madcap Moss and Happy Corbin
Daniel Gomez
oh I’m in the wrong thread oh no
Samuel Allen
I remember reading Tommy Dreamer's blog in that thing, he talked about being slammed by Henry and shitting himself.
