The connection, while not a direct influence on the quality of the battle, greatly affects the quality of the lyrics as it allows the rappers to interact on more levels and to compare themselves in ways that would not be possible with entirely disconnected characters. It also allows for more coherency in terms of visuals and the instrumental. The video itself would be more likely to score views as the matchup would appear interesting to someone looking at their recommended as opposed to something random and silly. The connection doesn't exist so people can argue about it.
