TheRock1525 09/14/21 3:16:13 PM #342:	PrivateBiscuit1 posted... Uh, I mean... he got his first singles title 8 years ago. Hung out with a tag team for the next seven years with success. Then he won the briefcase. Then he fought Apollo Crews for months, exclusively. Then he was on the pre-show at the second biggest PPV of the year in a nothing match. Then he cashed in on an injured and tired Lashley to beat him for the title, on a whim when ratings needed popped. I dunno what you call this aside from forcing him into a spot arbitrarily? He certainly wasn't pushed as a main event guy at all before this. Some of the timeline here is off. They split him off New Day last year in October, I think, then had him win the IC title in December where they pushed it as a huge win (like they had the entire lockerroom come out and lift E on their shoulders) on that one Smackdown that did ridiculously good ratings thanks to an NFL lead in (like 3.4 million or something). At which point he got into that feud with Crews leading to a WM match where Crews won by an assist from Dabo-Kata. They were likely going to break off from there and have Big E feud with Aleistar Black, but we know how that turned out, so Crews got dragged out until MitB. E has also been pretty well protected. Don't think he has a single clean loss and finally got a good RR showing only to be screwed by Omos. He wasn't treated like main event, but he was a well-protected upper midcard babyface who just needed one final push, which he got. I wouldn't say it was handled well, but I don't think it was arbitrary, either. --- TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues. <cite>TheRock1525 posted [p:958051371] in All-Purpos...
