17 Things You Probably Missed From WWE SmackDown (Aug 27)

2. Elias Undoing The 24/7 Title

Someone needs to have a word with Kevin Dunn, because the long-standing WWE production supremo isn't as on the ball as he used to be. For evidence, check out this senseless shot of Elias (who was supposed to be knocked out following a Kevin Owens Stunner) undoing his 24/7 Title right there on camera.

This was shockingly poor directing.

Elias was undoing the belt so Drake Maverick could easily take it from him a few moments later, but there's no way this should've been a close up shot. Once Dunn and company realised Elias was stirring, they should have moved away.
