From a kayfabe perspective once the PPV match has been agreed and a date has been set, why would you have a match on TV before that? It is just so stupid and this company just never ever learns.

Oh and I quote myself from the RAW thread: Why should anyone want to watch the title match, the match where the heel champ should get his comeuppance, when the heel loses every damned match? There is no reason to want to see the babyface win, when the mother f***er never loses. Hogan got killed all the time, Austin was screwed over constantly, Mankind was never supposed to get a chance, Sting had to wait over a year to get at Hogan, and so on. This is why people identify with the heels, they face more adversity than the f***ing babyfaces. Exactly. So Reigns manages to beat Owens. OK. Fine. Do Owens and Jericho then get to beat up Reigns and Rollins after the match to look like bad guy sore losers and get some sympy for the good guys who just won a match fair and square? No? Oh Reigns and Rollins just beat up Jericho and Owens AGAIN for some reason. Awesome. |

The biggest WTF from me is why is Jericho going to be in a cage? He interfered this match and they still lost - the two of them in prime positions can't beat him. The whole cage stipulation makes literally no sense now.

Funny thing is, since Owens have been beaten by Reigns so much, even the most pro-faces fans outthere will almost want the heel to win cause it would be something new. I think Owens will retain by HHH interfering again, with Hunter again getting a face pop by acting like a heel. |
