No more 'Wild Card' rule?

The wild card rule introduced by Vince McMahon a couple of months back has been a mess. The idea was to have just 4 superstars from one brand to appear on the other but the count always exceeded in the end.

Now, Sportskeeda's very own, Tom Colohue has revealed that WWE will be quietly wrapping up the wild card rule after SummerSlam. He reports that a number of superstars have been told about this but it looks like the brand split will remain.

A WWE source told Tom Colohue: “They're quietly wrapping up the wild card rule. No big announcement or anything. There's a lot of people who want it to end. Companies, sponsors, management and talent. You don't get another Lynch and Rousey moment without that Survivor Series format.”

With Paul Heyman and Eric Bischoff taking charge of Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live soon, it will be interesting to see how things pan out for WWE.
