Public Enemy got a raw deal. Their match with APA was a legit assault and how Simmons and Bradshaw man handled them could have left one of the guys paralyzed.
I guess the buy rate with Tuesday in Texas was bad or Vince would have done more shows like that. He really did screw the fans by not having two main eventers in the last Survivor Series match and making it 4 on 4. Macho and Jake on the teams made total sense.

The APA were completely unprofessional in their behavior. Yeah it tanked. Survivor Series did 300K buys and TTiT did 140K. If I was buying the shows myself back then I would’ve been a bit insulted. SS was a glorified infomercial for the next show.

SS was a glorified infomercial for the next show. Yep, the PPV didn't do so well. I don't think it was the card, it was more the fact that it was 5 days after everyone already spent money on the Survivor Series PPV. Had they waited to do the PPV closer to Christmas, it might have done a little better. Plus, then you could have had Macho and Jake on the Survivor Series card too. Add them to the match, have Jake do the heel thing where he only tags in when Macho's not in, then when Macho does tag in, Jake quickly tags out. From there you can have Macho and Jake get in a brawl and fight all the way back to the locker rooms, both getting DQ'd. Then you can promote the Tuesday in Texas PPV on all the WWF TV shows after the Survivor Series PPV. If you have the promoting of a PPV for a couple of weeks, that could have helped the PPV sell more. Especially if you are building it to the rematch of Hogan and Taker, the first-time match between Jake and Savage, as well as continue to push more feuds from that time like: Flair/Piper, Bret/Mountie, LOD/Disasters, and Virgi/Santana/DiBiase/Repo Man. Could have been a big PPV. Plus, we would have gotten more of Taker as the champion, and Flair really bragging how he cost Hogan the belt.
