#2. The increased budget
Even though many fans often complain that the quality of WWE shows has been degrading over the last several years, WWE is making more money now than ever before. Within the last 18 months, WWE has signed lucrative deals with the likes of USA Network and FOX Sports. WWE has also signed a huge deal with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to conduct two annual events in the country. So far, we have seen the Greatest Royal Rumble (2018), Crown Jewel (2018), WWE Super Showdown (2019), and will see the second edition of Crown Jewel later this year on October 31st. Each show marks an important economic advancement for the company.
WWE's latest five-year deal with the USA Network involves an average $105 million increase of annual revenue growth from 2014 to 2018. The $130 million in 2014 has grown to approximately $235 million in 2018. Similarly, FOX Sports gives WWE approximately $1 billion across five years to air SmackDown Live on Friday nights.
WWE is making a huge profit at the moment, has plenty of money to spare, and can easily afford the budget to include pyro. The company's favorable economic outlook allows them to provide the WWE Universe with out of this world pyrotechnics each and every week on both RAW and SmackDown Live.
