Why did Vince need to setup a situation where he got hit by Roman, when he was hit by him just two weeks ago?

So that they could have a new moment to recap endlessly throughout the night.

It's so dumb that they keep revisiting this. Why wouldn't the owner fire him and charge him with assault while he's at it? The feud with Austin developed naturally and slowly escalated into a blood feud. Vince wanted to make him into his image of a corporate champ but he couldn't tame the rattlesnake. It was a battle of ideals. Man vs the system. What the hell is the story behind this? It's Vince:heel, Roman:face. Face punch heel. Yay!

The story is that HHH and Steph can't handle Roman and called upon Vince to take care of the problem.

Because he's Vince McMahon.
This is the man that casually said that he could have beat up Frank Shamrock. Roman Reigns ain't nothing to that crazy bastard.

We've seen it a million times since the late nineties, non stop. Besides, it still doesn't explain why Vince wouldn't fire him. He's not engaged in a game of one-upsmanship like he was with Austin. Austin was a drunk redneck from another promotion. It made sense that he wouldn't want him as the face of the company. It makes no sense he wouldn't want the homegrown cousin of the Rock. Oh but he punched HHH because reasons doesn't cut it. Just because you can point out plot points doesn't make them logical or good.

The Rock was someone who walked out on McMahon for greener pastures (and a guy the McMahon family had problems with when he was around), so it's not entirely unbelievable that he'd bury Roman just to spite Dwayne. Also WWE's homegrown stars are designed to be largely interchangeable to some degree, so if Roman doesn't fall in line with the McMahon's expectations, Vince could (kayfabe) easily replace him with another homegrown star.

Ok, so why isn't he replacing him then? You're proving my point that it makes no logical sense.

Does he take the title off the rightful champ and turn the fans on him and his chosen one killing his business or milk Roman for all he can while trying to get the title off of him, making the act of replacing him easier?

Now you're asking me to book an angle I'm saying they shouldn't be doing period. Vince/HHH/Steph shouldn't be heel authority figures in 2015 going on 16. It's been 15+ years of this. If I had control of the show, the president would be impartial. I'd have the talent be the heels. The owner who hates his own champ only worked with Austin. (Hogan too, since they had that who made who storyline)

The holes you want to poke aren't there is what I am saying, it is a story you hate, fine, don't blame you, but to say it makes no sense, makes no sense. You just don't like what is being done.

That was an interesting angle for sure. The heel tries a dastardly plan and ends up looking like a complete buffoon. Not even because of anything the face did, just because the police force used common sense for once. I'm wondering what the end game was supposed to be considering that Vince showed up at the end of the show like nothing happened after he got released. I was expecting HHH to hit the ring and jump Roman or something but no. He booked a Sheamus match which they easily could have done without all this.

You are better off not using the words WWE and Logic next to each other.
