#1 The WWE SmackDown Live event this week was canceled
As reported by Mike Johnson of PWInsider, a SmackDown Live Event that was scheduled to take place in Corbin, Kentucky was postponed and that was the reason why everything that happened this week actually took place.
This was the central reason why three of SmackDown Live's top stars showed up on RAW in the first place.
This may seem like a very small reason, but this was the initial spark that brought about the inception of the Wild Card Rule. It's a shame that the men and women in Corbin who were excited about the show will have to wait a while before they can catch all of their favorite WWE Superstars live.
But from their dismay could have been born a new WWE rule that will become a mainstay of WWE television in the coming weeks. Are you a fan of the Wild Card rule?
