As many of you whom follow my work may recall, I have kind of soured on the whole brand battle gimmick when it comes to WWE PPVs. The whole thing peaked back in the early-to-mid-noughties and has had highs and lows since then (with even a Raw vs. Smackdown PPV called Bragging Rights running for a bit) but now it seems like it only gets in the way of running storylines for a temporary night where brands all of a sudden become important and divisive (though adding Nxt in the mix last year helped a tad). Those days really feel to have passed and yet, here we are again, as an intriguing WWE Championship picture involving Randy Orton, Drew McIntyre, “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt and The Miz is shelved in favour of a Raw vs. Smackdown champion match, alongside a few other brand clash matches and classic survivor series elimination tag battles.
