It was basically an NXT wrap up show that aired on the WWE YouTube channel.

To their credit, it at least seems they're doing whatever they can to avoid cutting talent. A couple years ago, they would have said fukk it and wiped half the undercard to save money.

But damn, they're cutting so much of their online content/presence. I didn't even know this show was a thing.

Ever since Smackdown was introduced in 99, the product slowly started dying, mainly because storylines had stretched to accommodate the B show.

The brand extension helped curb this, but now theres too much talent which means more salaries to be paid.

The E needs to go back RAW and RAW only. Obviously won't happen, but it would improve things.

The roster is huge now. RAW, Smackdown, NXT, UK division, 205 Live, plus all the trainees, plus on-air commentators/interviewers, plus all the production people, etc...all this money is being rearranged to into employees instead of stuff like pyro and unnecessary web shows. They have to pay all these women for that tournament too. Stuff like that.

cutting talent wouldn't be a bad thing...they're not doing anything with most of them..at least cut the people who haven't really been progressing in developmental.
