WWE Tested A New Strategy On Friday Night Smackdown


 Last Friday, Smackdown opened with the two world championship tournament triple threat matches, with the first seing AJ Styles go over Edge and Rey Mysterio while the 2nd see Bobby Lashley defeats Sheamus and US champion Austin Theory, the headliner featured Styles going over Lashley in the semi final to advance in the final where he’ll face Seth Rollins for the World championship at Night of Champions on May 27.                 WWE did something different to open the show as they went straight to the first triple threat bout, only aired the entrance of Edge mixing the entrances of Styles and Mysterio.  It has been reported that those entrances were instead shared on social media before the show went live to «  serve an active reminder that the show was starting « .                                       WWE hasn’t done that in the past, so maybe this new strategy will increase the ratings for the beginning of the show.                           What’s your take on it ? Are you happy with this formula or do you prefer having all the entrances been aired during the live broadcast ?
