Vince McMahon booked this cr*p, just to answer the age-old question with the age-old answer. And he booked it with his age-old philosophy, because he's an old-aged man.

Just one month ago, Finn Bálor was his vision of David from his own warped vision of David and Goliath, but the tree-chopping graft put in by Bálor on Brock Lesnar was but a dim and distant memory as he bailed from big Bobby Lashley any time 'The Almighty' got within touching distance of him.

The company know better than to keep booking the belt like this - tomorrow on Raw, Finn will tell the world he's going to restore prestige to the title, as usual implying that the former holder was failing to do so. The secondary strap's strife remains a result of systemic failure, not just because all of them f*cking suck.

Lashley f*cking sucks - the stupid idiot couldn't keep his title because he couldn't keep focussed as his d*ckhead miniture mate lost it on his behalf. Lio Rush f*cking sucks - he was easy pickings for Finn and has seemingly forgotten how to defend himself as an actual wrestler rather than the "hype man". Finn Bálor - that guty nearly-man from last month - f*cking sucks. He took every shortcut - even his "smart strategy" was presented as a fluke.
