6 Recent Times WWE Helped The Independent Scene And 4 Times They Didn't
Vince McMahon showed his wrath and generosity to the independent scene recently

#4 Covering the Street Fighter Bout

Kenny Omega Xavier Woods
The Cleaner and the Valedictorian

Some of our readers might be confused as to how a video game match could result in helping the independent wrestling scene. If some unpopular independent wrestlers had been involved, it wouldn't make a lot of sense. But, if the wrestlers in question are the current IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kenny Omega and the IWGP Tag Team Champions the Young Bucks, it surely does.

Xavier Woods and Kenny Omega had an altercation on Twitter involving their Street Fighter skills. The Street Fighter official account would interfere and make a 3-on-3 match between them at the E3 event. Mind you this is not the first time these two video game lovers squared-off in a video game match. They locked horns two times previously, but at none of the times did WWE acknowledge this in their website.

However, this time WWE referenced Kenny Omega and Young Bucks in their website. Furthermore, they even aired a promo of Kenny Omega during his Deep South Wrestling days in their official Youtube account. The whole wrestling community was surprised by the generosity of the WWE.
