A recent episode of The Ariel Helwani Show featured actor and rapper O’Shea Jackson Jr. as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Jackson Jr. revealing that he had recently spoken to WWE CCO Paul “Triple H” Levesque and Stephanie McMahon about his issues with there being too many ads during WWE shows and how both of them are aware of the problem.
“I went to go do Stephanie McMahon’s pod. I did it at WWE Headquarters. Triple H comes down and we’re all talking. I brought up my transgressions. I was like, ‘Dude, the ads are crazy. It’s almost unwatchable.’ They know. They’re working on placement, maybe. I get it, Roman Reigns’ entrance is seven minutes long. That doesn’t mean that’s the time to go to ads. There should never be a moment where I miss IYO SKY’s entrance because we’re back on commercial break. It’s a level of respect for them. It’s fine in the middle of a match. At least picture-and-picture me. It’s for sure soulless, but to get to a billion, I don’t know what you have to do, but it sounds pretty soulless. We’re dealing with Bs, not Ms.”
WWE has been dealing with complaints from fans over the overabundance of ads during WWE programming since Endeavor’s purchase of WWE and merger with UFC to form parent company TKO Group.
