WWE ThunderDome has arguably been a masterstroke by the promotion. For the past few months, WWE was forced to host the weekly episodes of RAW, SmackDown and NXT from either an empty arena or with developmental talents posing as crowd members. ThunderDome allowed the company to use "a state-of-the-art set, video boards, pyrotechnics, lasers and drone cameras" to bring fans into the arena "virtually." While it does not compare to having the arena full of fans, ThunderDome at least  managed to bring a life-like feel matches and segments.
