Major optimism backstage after WWE MSG show (Patreon)

WWE hit a home run in Madison Square Garden, and those we spoke to immediately after the event seemed to think so, too.
With the exception of the cut segments, WWE sources in contact with Fightful seemed unanimously optimistic following the show, a stark contrast to some of the demeanors we usually experience in following up on the company's TV events. One WWE source near creative said that they fully believe the company is capable of putting on these kinds of shows regularly, it's just a matter of getting through to those of influence that this is the type of event that the audience wants to see regularly.
Vince McMahon was at the show, as was Stephanie McMahon. We're told Gorilla Position was busy during and ahead of the MSG show. There was also a screening of the company's 9/11 documentary.
