Welcome to My (And Not Sly's) House
I'm watching No Way Out 2007 and there's a match between Booker and Kane. I had no memory at all of why they were fighting as Booker made his entrance. Then I got a quick video that summarized the whole feud in about 40 seconds. This was great as it told me what I needed to know to understand the match in a very quick video which looked good, was edited well and got me ready to see a match.
Here's the thing: their feud started at the Rumble and was built up on Smackdown. With these videos in place for nearly every match, why would I need to watch the TV shows or buy the PPVs if I can just get a history of each feud like this whenever I watch a PPV? I haven't seen this show in nearly 4 years and the feud is instantly explained to me in perfect detail and in under a minute. Why spend four weeks and 80 dollars to see both PPVs plus all the Smackdowns when I can spend 15 dollars and grab the DVD and get the feud and the match in under 15 minutes total?
Are the recap videos and packages that WWE sets up good or bad for business?
