Dave Meltzer was one of the motivating factors in Cody Rhodes’ decision to move forward with the event:
I'll take that bet Dave
I already gave them their biggest buyrate…put The Bucks & I on the card & 3-months to promote

After the sell out Meltzer chimed in with the following:
Who cares about the semantics. I'm very happy for them. Technically it wasn't soon and it wasn't ROH, but who cares. They took a risk and had an overwhelming success. It's great for the business and everyone who pays attention knows my feeling about this. https://t.co/IRxNJucGYy

Pretty clear now they should have tried the United Center, but the goal was 10,000 and nobody knew the demand for sure and there's a lot of cost outlays for people without experience promoting. https://t.co/Kj2cGQ8MAY
