There is neither rhyme nor reason to Vince's booking beyond sheer caprice. He has never been the creative genius we've thought he was historically, and he was _never_ the business genius he has made himself out to be.
This business has been governed by the wrestling equivalent of Elon Musk.

Know who else Vince by all accounts was super high on? Lacey Evans, and his grand idea for her was having her walk to the ring every week for months on end, once she did actually do something she immediately lost three PPV title shots in a row, then she got in a go-nowhere feud with Natalya that lasted for months, then she turned back and forth between face and heel every week, then when she did finally get over as a face he jobbed her out to Bayley for months on end. Vince loving you is its own kind of death sentence. Vince is a weird dude. I remember an episode of STW where Bruce said Vince met Colt Cabana and found out he did comedy and was Jewish and immediately talked about making Colt into a Jerry Lewis character and had big plans. He immediately lost interest when Colt said he didn't do that type of comedy. He also loved the Simon Dean character when it was first pitched and lost interest while filming vignettes but multiple people said that Simon Dean was originally going to win the IC title upon his debut.

He's Mr. Burns, essentially.
