At a time when Okada and Omega are rewriting the book of professional wrestling, hardcore wrestling fans have a far better alternative to the WWE action they see on a weekly basis. Dave Meltzer recently claimed that even Impact Wrestling puts on a better weekly show than WWE does.

With Zayn holding the briefcase and possibly winning the championship in the near future, it gives the WWE audience a lot more legitimacy among the IWC and can even increase network subscriptions and merchandise sales over the long haul.
