WWE TV 08/10 - 08/16 Rollins is basically HHH's heir to the throne, isn't he?

There's bound to be some shuffling in both shows Women's division with the upcoming Superstar Shakeup this fall. The face side of things on RAW is pretty bland so I wouldn't be surprised to see Alexa Bliss and/or Nikki Cross move to RAW (pending on whatever happens with the current Braun/Fiend angle) to strengthen it. But yeah, the result of both Women's title matches on Sunday should be a pretty good indication of which direction they'll go with it.

Baseball maybe when the games have stakes, but not right now. 

Probably will be the same for players.  IDK how much wrestlers saying that it’s a big deal is kayfabe lip service these days as with the exception of WM, and no matter the promotion they’re in the same arenas for house shows that PPVs and special events get held in.  And I’ve seen other performance artists say they prefer smaller crowds to the bigger arenas/stages.

But yeah, baseball is a non-scripted sport where the “playoff atmosphere,” and crowd affecting performances is very real.  

Probably the best example is the first ever postseason series where the home team won every game.  It’s wasn’t just that the Twins performed better, or had better pitching those nights, but to this day the being in front of the Metrodome crowd is considered a huge factor in why the Twins won the 1987 World Series.
