Can someone tell me what the point of King of the Ring was again? I’m super happy that Sami Zayn’s the champion, but it appears that Jey Uso is going to be challenging Sami Zayn for the WWE title despite losing King of the Ring and an opportunity to get a title shot in the first place against Oba Femi.
And then Oba Femi on Raw gets attacked by Brock Lesnar and then challenges Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam, and they’re going to wrestle in a Hell in a Cell match, which means Oba, in his own words, is delaying his world title shot.
Enter Seth Rollins. Seth Rollins versus Roman Reigns in the year 2026. Look, Roman’s never officially beaten Seth on a big stage. This makes sense, but this could have been done on another pay-per-view. You had an opportunity to put over a young guy, to give him his Brock Lesnar in 2002 moment, and instead we got Jey Uso, after losing, getting a title shot and Roman versus Seth again.
