WOO IMPACT STATEMENT
What does WOO know about the wrestling industry and it's needs?
Wrestling Organization Online consists of a knowledgeable team of professionals who have experience in the industry. We know many independent wrestlers are exploited by promoters every day. This exploitation is called "paying your dues" within the industry, and we believe it goes far beyond paying your dues. Many independent wrestlers are taken advantage of by being charged thousands of dollars by promoters to be trained as a wrestler. These training classes are primarily taught by other wrestlers that are also new and paid very little. The wrestlers then are not paid for shows they perform on but are expected to promote the show by hanging flyers, transporting the ring, assembling/disassembling the ring, and sometimes wrestling twice.
This issue is an issue that comes from the top down. In the United States of America, wrestlers are considered Independent Contractors. This means they aren't treated as employees and have no access to employer retirement or insurance funds. This was recently explained by John Oliver here.
How will WOO grow/promote the wrestling industry?
Wrestling Organization Online will promote independent wrestlers and smaller wrestling organizations worldwide by bringing their likeness/organization to a new audience. Many independent wrestlers find it challenging to reach new audiences when they have limited exposure in their area. By releasing NFT versions of partnered wrestlers, a new audience will be exposed to them and become familiar with them long before they make it big.
Other wrestling organizations can also benefit from the same exposure. An organization could purchase a territory, create its title on the blockchain, and host events promoting its organization. Wrestling Organization Online will also buy merchandise from partners for future community giveaways, thus spreading the awareness of brands and wrestlers.
Wrestling Organization Online will also use its various social media outlets to promote/repost/share independent wrestlers and organizations' content to help further promote wrestlers and the industry.
How will WOO's NFTs and game help wrestlers financially?
Wrestling Organization Online will create NFT versions of partnered wrestlers, and a portion of the earnings will be used to buy merchandise from various partnered wrestlers. This will directly help wrestlers by providing income and traffic to their merchandise stores. These NFT versions of wrestlers will be essential to compete against others in-game. Those NFT versions of wrestlers can then be traded, resold, and rented to others, and, as stated previously, a portion of all earnings will be used to purchase merchandise from partnered wrestlers.
Wrestling organizations worldwide of all sizes can also purchase territory and titles. These titles and territories would then earn $WOO, which could be sold as an additional source of income for the company.
Wrestling Organization Online is committed to positively influencing the industry by directly promoting wrestlers and offering a new income opportunity. We look forward to our pack release and the future of WOO!
