As a devoted WWE fan who has watched every single pay-per-view since WrestleMania III, I can confidently say that the changes under Triple H’s leadership have been a breath of fresh air. The reduction in match count on premium live events might initially seem disappointing, but it’s led to higher quality matches and a more focused narrative.
It’s become apparent to WWE fans that there have been notable shifts within the organization following Triple H taking over from Vince McMahon. In the year 2022, Vince McMahon, who was once the chairman of WWE, unexpectedly retired in the midst of a controversy surrounding payments meant to keep certain matters confidential.
However, he made a surprising return to WWE early the following year. This brief comeback ended towards the beginning of 2024 when a lawsuit alleging sexual misconduct forced McMahon to step down from his board position. This led to him selling his remaining shares in the promotion. After McMahon’s departure, Triple H became WWE’s chief content officer.
As the gaming enthusiast immersed in the world of WWE, I’ve seen firsthand how Triple H’s leadership has propelled our success to new heights. One significant shift he brought about was cutting down on the number of matches during premium live events. Since 2024 began, we’ve been on a roll, delivering some of the most successful premium live events WWE has ever seen.
Upcoming WWE Event: “Bash in Berlin” will take place on Saturday, August 31st at the Uber Arena in Berlin, Germany. So far, they’ve revealed five major bouts for this exciting show. Meanwhile, their current Performance Live Event (PLE) format is enjoying tremendous success.
Nonetheless, there’s ongoing discussion regarding the number of matches in PLE cards. Traditionally, these events during Vince McMahon’s leadership had around 8-9 matches, whereas the current setup has fewer. In the midst of this conversation, recent insider reports have brought forth behind-the-scenes opinions about the shift to this revised format by WWE.
Man, the match lineup for this event falls short of expectations. Once again, there are just five matches, making it far too brief. The most promising encounter is undermined by a less-than-intelligent stipulation. Here’s hoping that WrestleMania season approaches soon, so WWE can step up their game again! #BashInBerlin

Backstage reaction to WWE’s PLE match format changes
As I, a passionate gamer of WWE’s virtual universe, eagerly await the next Premium Live Event, Bash in Berlin, I can’t help but notice a shift in the number of matches. With only five thrilling bouts lined up, it seems the trend of fewer matches is here to stay. Insider reports from Fightful Select are hinting at this new format’s positive backstage reception. WWE seems determined to maintain this pattern for their PLEs, as high-ranking officials are satisfied with the outcomes.
The layout has demonstrated effectiveness and facilitated additional bouts for both Raw and SmackDown. This structure is also beneficial when SmackDown occurs in the same city as the following night’s Pay-Per-View event. The forthcoming SmackDown will be held at Uber Arena, which is the same location as Bash in Berlin. Despite ongoing discussions among fans about a reduction in matches, WWE appears determined to maintain this approach due to its recent success.
