10 Quick Fixes That Would Have Improved WWE Payback 2016

6. Have Cesaro Win The I.C. Title

One of the show's most jaw-droppingly inept booking choices was having Cesaro get rolled up by The Miz after being distracted by a brawling Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn.

This was after Cesaro had already made Miz tap with the ref's back turned, making it all the more infuriating at the same time. Considering how Miz is so ridiculously outmatched by Cesaro, and Cesaro had been long overdue a title push, how did this not just happen?

Sure, playing hot potato with the I.C. Title isn't great either, but it's worth it to land it in Cesaro's hands, where he could hopefully enjoy a long title reign.

Instead, Kevin Owens will probably end up re-capturing it rather than moving onto bigger things, which sucks for both Owens and Cesaro.
