I wasn't pimping Victory Road like the last two TNA PPVs because I'm against the concept of this being treated as "the road to Lockdown" despite being the same price and having a longer build. It seems ridiculous to actively sell it as inferior to the next PPV but for the same price. It's one thing to do it with Elimination Chamber where at least there's the Chamber gimmick to sell and the "last chance to get into the WM title hunt" concept, but here it's just silly. It would be like marketing Bragging Rights as the Road to Survivor Series.
Agree with this 100%. $10 cost difference aside, the chamber matters and can be billed as "road to Wrestlemania" because the results have SERIOUS implications for wrestlemania. People REALLY want to know who is going to win in the chamber because it affects what TWO matches we're going to get at WM.
Nothing at Victory Road affected Lockdown at all, except a last minute completely-obvious-winner situation with Storm and Bully.
