How are those PPVs great? Payback was a two match show, both rematches, and only one delivering. MITB was also a two match show but the ME was uninspired, the briefcase ladder match was great though.
The WWE has plenty of talent to put on entertaining PPVs. The fact that they're selling PPVs with only one or two matches that are of interest is disconcerting. I do concede that Summerslam is shaping up to be a great PPV with Lesnar/Cena, Rollins/Ambrose, Steph/Brie, Reigns/Orton, Paige/AJ and Jericho/Wyatt all getting a sufficient amount of build.. But that just proves they only put effort into their major PPVs. I'm not paying 120 dollars a year for a service when there's only two PPVs the WWE care about.
I think the network is an amazing idea but the WWE has to put effort into presenting a product that people want to pay to see all year round, not just when subscriptions are up.
