Hearing Michael Cole act like WWE is the NFL was one of the hidden highlights of the night. "AJ fumbled it (the briefcase)", he said, before adding that "Otis had control". Since when did that rule come into effect? One was almost expecting them to throw things up to the control tower so ex-officials could debate the fumble or completed pass.

Technically, Styles was the winner. He was the one who held the case on his own first when 'King' Corbin fell, and so he should be the guy with the title contract. WWE has said, since the dawn of time, that the first man to hold that case after pulling it down would be the victor.

That was AJ, not Otis.
