Here's a fairly stunning statistic: the WWE Championship - that is, the company's top title, especially now it's exclusive to de facto new flagship SmackDown - has not been defended in the main event of a WWE pay-per-view since February's Elimination Chamber. Even more astonishingly, you have to go back to Fastlane the previous year to find the next most recent instance. It's almost as if the belt's relevance is restricted to the B-level pre-WrestleMania show.

By the looks of things, it won't be main-eventing Hell in a Cell either - even though it's now in the hands of Brock Lesnar. In fact, with The Beast positioned across from Cain Velasquez at Crown Jewel later this month, it's very very unlikely to be on the show at all - especially as a throwaway last-minute addition.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
