I think in this case burning money is far less of a problem than burning your own fanbase and basically begging them to either go over to Vince or just stop watching altogether. Both the movie and the Arquette stunt are saying "Our product is a joke and you are stupid piece of shit for ever having enjoyed it!" That's just... baffling, to be honest. I'm not a marketing genius or anything, but it should be common sense to avoid actively alienating your customer base.

Rewatching this can’t help but notice how many top Hollywood actors (whether from a star point or an acting point) were in this. Rose McGowan and Arquette from Scream obviously, McGowan later on doing great in Planet Terror amongst other things, Joey Pantoliano from The Matrix, Memento, Bad Boys, Oliver Platt had a decent role in X-Men First Class amongst other films, Scott Caan, son of Jimmy from The Godfather, also had a decent role in Enemy of the State. Amazing they were all attracted to feature in this shit. (Which either means they were paid a lot or they really value their friendship with Arquette, the only true wrestling fan.)
