#4: High-definition production isn't always necessary for a wrestling show

As a long-time viewer of WWE programming, and an admirer of what AEW has put out into the world so far, as well as a long-time KISS fan, I am very accustomed to seeing pyro featured in live entertainment. After all, those sudden explosions often help you differentiate the major attractions from the top tier of the card to the lower-card.

LUCHA INVADES NY did not have any pyro on display. There was smoke, there was loud music, and there was an incredible amount of colored lighting within the overall production. All of that was more than sufficient.

Given that this was a great show, this all helps to reinforce that when your live event is supposed to be about great wrestling, maybe you don't need all the bells and whistles. After all, isn't pyro just meant to distract you from the intended entertainment at hand?
