Still think it's funny that it looked like they were preparing themselves to piggyback off of the impending success of Guardians of the Galaxy (nobody knew it was going to be the runaway smash that it would become, but this was still past the point of everyone being aware that MCU was a licence to print money), and they instead didn't think it would do that well. It's like they had themselves set up for that cross-promotinal, mainstream media appeal they look to manufacture, but it ironically wasn't in their plan at all.
Actually, according to Batista, WWE thought the movie wasn't gonna be anything, and they didn't even mention it, let alone try to piggyback on it.
