Smackdown has five PPVs of its own. Along with Raw and ECW, it's a part of the big four.

Advantages
Smackdown has a decent sized roster, meaning it can save money easier than Raw. It can also train jobbers with it's preshow, Velocity.

Disadvantages
Having a decent sized roster means that Smackdown can hardly afford to give superstars a break and let them rest. This may cause Smackdown to have to possibly not use some match slots on Velocity or their main card.
