10 Things Nobody Wants To Admit About WWE Super ShowDown 2020
10. The Crowd Was Dead
WWE are more about the television product than the live experience these days. If they were being honest, they'd admit that - that's why fans in New Jersey were blinded by lights during Randy Orton vs. AJ Styles at WrestleMania 35. Beaming a picture-perfect scene to the watching world at home is war more important to them than anyone who paid thousands for seats.
Even so, it's true that a live crowd enhances things.
Super ShowDown's audience took away from the TV visual. They were visibly (many moved around in the background during matches) and audibly (only a small pocket of fans opposite the hard cam could be bothered to chant anything) dipped only a few matches in. That's pretty worrying considering these folks were once starved of WWE action.
Have Saudi Arabian fans already grown tired of these near-quarterly supershows? It sure sounds like it, and that can't be music to WWE's ears.
