>>8882868either the LED sets/graphics werent ready yet, or they wanted to do a test run in HD before the official launch of the HD era the following week. this was the first time wwe had ever been shot in 16:9 so it was a pretty big thing. notice at the start of the video the match graphics are still in 4:3 and dont even fit the screen. many people still didnt have HD ready television sets yet in 2008. HD was a big deal at the time, like 3D TVs (or 4k) but not just a dumb gimmick. the shift to HD was as much about going from the 4:3 to 16:9 aspect ratio as much as anything else. as i recall this episode ended with triple h destroying the set with a sledgehammer, so maybe it was just a way to give the old set a send off
