People on here at the time were complaining that matches were too short and EVENTUALLY fans will turn away.

To me the product is better now as a means of making money. However, it did feel more exciting in the late 90s. But even with the crazy TV ratings, advertisers looked at negatively at the makeup of the audience. It's taken a lot of work and some bold moves, but now the smaller audience is seen in a more positive light.

The one thing I remember about that show was how sad it was that WCW was running that venue. I think that angle would have played so much better if they were in a traditional WCW city in an actual arena. A whole bunch of things worked against WWE with that angle.
