The first part of the angle played on 9/26 where Dixie Carter basically blew off A.J. Styles, saying that she didn’t need him, but when Hogan came out, she was begging him to help her out. On the second show, Hogan quit, with Dixie Carter grabbing him by the ankles and begging him to stay. When questions were asked, and they were, about how absolutely stupid it was for the owner to act like she didn’t care about Styles, who headlines Bound for Glory, but did about Hogan, it was said that Hogan’s contract included creative control of everything he was involved with. This was the only exit he would do, where he left on his own, without endorsing anyone, putting anyone over, nor them even ridiculing or burying him on the way out.

The Rhodes/Shield match is the most interesting part. The Daniel Bryan/Orton thing kind of lost me a bit with them downplaying "face of the company" CorpOrton to bring back "IED" Orton, which is old news. CM Punk/Ryback could be "decent", but they have done a poor job of actually building Ryback for it, instead of Heyman.

Everything else looks/feels like some random RAW/SD fare.
