Smackdown Live has been heralded as the "Land of Opportunity" ever since the brand split happened two years ago in July. While some think that's probably just a slogan for the show, it is actually indicative of what takes place on the blue brand. In fact, it's been said time and time again that this is what separates Raw from Smackdown Live.
Would Monday Night Raw have ever taken a chance on Jinder Mahal and made him their biggest champion? Furthermore, would Raw have ever tried something as ballsy as a Miss Money in The Bank ladder match? The answer to these questions is probably not and that's what truly makes Smackdown Live the "Land of Opportunity".
Even stars like Kevin Owens, who was thrown aside in favour of a Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar match for The Universal Title at WrestleMania 33, currently finds himself in a top-level feud against Smackdown Live's authority figures. If nothing else, Smackdown Live utilises their roster in ways that Monday Night Raw would probably never dream of.
