6) Phone Promos Were A Big Theme Of The Show This Week
Multiple WWE Superstars cut promos about the Royal Rumble match this week on Smackdown Live. All of these promos were cut from their cellphones backstage.
Is WWE trying to save some cash flow? I wasn’t the only one confused:
WTF is with all these cell phone RR promos? #SDLive
