Because regular shows don't attract as many smarks as the NXT ppvs and Summerslam/Wrestlemania shows.

nxt takeovers are well paced and generally well booked 2 1/2 to 3 hour shows, while summerslam was a 6+ hour marathon that would be hard to keep anyone interested the whole time so the crowd gets bored and wwe booking doesn't have goodwill to not irk the fan's ire when a questionable booking decision pops up. especially after wrestlemania being a 7+ hour marathon with nothing but questionable at best and antagonizing at worst booking decisions

They're going to do some kind of carny as gently caress angle when Vince dies and it's going to be amazing. I bet it's in his will.

Think 'Katie Vick' with HHH but 'Rigeur Mortis' with Steph.

There was a very distinct shot of a woman walking, which stood out from everything else in that package, so I'm fairly sure this is Crazy Mary.
