5/6

The Smackdown Women's Championship Match didn't go down and neither did Hawkins' match. I had no idea about the 8-Man Tag match on the pre-show.

I know I haven't watched it in a long time but that seems like a weak lineup for a PPV especially one that was against the debate.

Also a bit weird to see AJ having so much success since they seemed to destroy the careers of so many other WCW stars. I guess him being from TNA might be the cause of that or maybe HHH and Steph are running things now more than Vince is.

The main event Triple Threat WWE Championship OPENED the PPV last night! I'd never seen them do that before. It was weird. It's a shame the IC Title/Career Match wasn't the main event. Instead, the Wyatt/Orton match closed the PPV.

I've thought about how Vince treated WCW talent compared to TNA and I feel like he doesn't really view TNA as competition and doesn't hold a personal grudge against TNA or their talent. They've signed a lot of former TNA talent, like Raw Tag Team Champion Xavier Woods (Consequences Creed), WWE World Champion AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Bobby Roode, Eric Young, WWE Cruiserweight Champion TJ Perkins (Suicide/Manik), James Storm, Low Ki. I'm sure there's more. And TNA has signed a lot of WWE talent and some have gone back to WWE after their TNA runs. Like Hulk Hogan, Christian (Christian Cage), Kevin Nash, Booker T, Luke Gallows (D.O.C.), Bubba Ray Dudley (Bully Ray), D-Von Dudley (Brother Devon).

I just don't think Vince has that same hatred for TNA as he had for WCW way back in the day. That's why he treats TNA talent fairly.

.... or he's realllllllllly desperate.

Probably a little of both. I know they are taking in more profits because of the WWE network thing but they aren't as healthy as a company as they should be in my opinion.
