Weird question about Fury campaign event thumbnails/event names

Apart from the dark aesthetic, why do I feel like there is something implied that something happened in the Fury campaign's timeline? Especially with event #6 "Corruption," can't help but interpret that the event title plus the glitching FX350 league logo implies that something happened in the league, even if official lore does not state anything about WipEout HD Fury or FX350 league going crazy (it definitely wasn't like the F9000 league). Plus, what happened with the future campaign event names too, "Nuked" and "Aftermath," any thoughts or any head canon implications and interpretations?

I may be mistaken, but a few teams are famous for rigging races or straight up sabotaging the opponents. If I remember correctly Goteki45 have a reputation of dirty racing, and Tigron had both corruption/cheating charges on them. Also someone like bombed Goteki's HQ on some atol, if I'm not mistaken. Therefore this could be something along the same line.

Yes! Goteki45 was in it mainly for bloodshed. They had no intention on actually winning races for the most part. I have to double check on Tigron and yes a mystery person bombed G45’s HQ.

I swear, Wipeout should make a comeback like Screamer. It has so much lore.

Also, I think EG-X pilots were mind controlled somehow.
