6. First Time Ever
There are very few first time ever matches that WWE can do. Yes, Neville and Fandango was one we saw on Raw, but so was Randy Orton and Kevin Owens. Now, they can never wrestle for the first time again. So we got it for free, with no hype, and it was all to set up one of the most boring feuds in the history of wrestling with Orton and Sheamus. Seriously, Doink vs. Crush and Shawn Michaels and God vs. The McMahons were worse feuds, but they werent as boring. Once WWE gets a new toy, they cant wait to play with it. All. The. Time. Owens debuted by appearing to accept Cenas open challenge, and then walked away, saying hed fight him on his time. Cool! Something to look forward to! Well, then they fought not even two weeks later, and then fought twice more. Feud over. Luckily, there's still other top names for Owens to fight...unless they run through all of those quickly too. Because of this, KO is already feeling like a normal guy. Orton and Owens could surely be an interesting feud, and is likely to happen at some point anyway, so why not just keep them apart until it means something?

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
