It was completely sidetracked in the opening segment, they didn't bother mentioning the other match, and Jinder Hinder may hold another belt.
Worse, you KNOW Dolph will immediately show up to bitch if Roode wins.

As I said in the SDL thread: Oh Jesus, the finals of this will be Jinder vs. Roode and the crowd will be chanting USA the whole time won't it?

So Roode or Jinder for the win
I admit Jinder feels more at home in this type of situation than he did with the WWE title so this could be good for him
Roode needs something to sink his teeth into because his feud with Dolph was meh and what seemed to be a feud with Corbin for the title got the legs cut out

The US Title has been a complete joke for years now, this latest case only highlights how much of one it is.

Yea when you consider they had Jericho, KO, Roman, and AJ all wear the title over the last year or so and none of the guys were able to elevate it In fairness, they didn't have Chris do shit with the belt nor Roman, while AJ should have did the open challenge gimmick a little bit longer than they did but he didn't get to do much with it either

I still can't believe they interrupted the segment with an entirely different storyline and didn't even show the bracket.

I personally enjoy how it's a not-even-thinly-veiled move purely done to waste time on a random match disguised as part of a "tournament" that likely doesn't even have a planned winner for and is only done so they don't have to try until after Royal Rumble, the only time of the year when WWE thinks anyone cares about their product.

Jinder's winning this purely because I think they'll want a heel champion holding that title given I think Styles is holding his belt until WM.

Nevermind that WWE in general needs all the face champions it can get right now tho in saying that Lesnar is sort of the only heel champ at the moment and even then he's whatever they need him to be depending on the opponent

If Jinder wins, whatever. The US Championship level is actually perfect for him to be in at this point.

I still can't believe they interrupted the segment with an entirely different storyline and didn't even show the bracket. My sources tell me this is the current bracket as per Daniel Bryan: Bobby Roode vs. The Sea Creature Jinder Mahal vs. Dragon Dragon, The Only Real Dragon in Pro Wrestling -Terry Funk vs. Terry Taylor -Arn Anderson vs. Rey Fenix -Kenny Omega vs. Chris Jericho -Stan Hansen vs. La Parka -Jushin Liger vs. Pentagon Dark -Roderick Strong vs. Johnny Saint vs. Sid

Jinder, Ziggler, and Roode might be the worst set of wrestlers you could possibly put together, so of course Smackdown would do it.

And people wonder why I'm not looking forward to him dropping the IC belt. He treats these belts like meaningless placeholders and damn near Gail Kim's them to the next person ... Ok Gail Kim's still way worse but you get the point.

Just just any heel, a specific type of heel so we can get a certain super patriot in the title picture. Cena beating Jinder for a title at Wrestlemania has been my thought for months, I think I was just wrong about which title it would be.
