4. Less Work For The Editing Team
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIbQZzMrRV4 Because Smackdown is taped the editing team sometimes feels the need to go back and editing any mishaps. This was important for one superstar in particular, Sin Cara. His matches consisted of numerous botches that had to be heavily edited. Having the editing team to fall back on can become sort of a crutch for wrestlers. If they know their mishaps can be fixed there is no incentive to get better at their craft. It also hurts them when those same performances are expected to give top notch performances at live shows such as Raw or pay-per-views. Also every move performed in the ring doesn't need to be flawless. In fact, when wrestlers struggle to perform certain moves it makes it all the more impressive when it is finally accomplished. This European uppercut, which itself is a great looking move, was made all the more impressive because Cesaro clearly lost his balance, but had the strength to hold Sami Zayn up throughout. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6invHW8cd3w Botches are going to happen every now and again and they can lead to
funny moments. This also helps humanize the larger than life characters people see every week on their television.
