WWE Super ShowDown 2020: 10 Things That Must Happen

9. Murphy Gets The Pin

Credit where credit is due: Seth Rollins is doing a wonderful job putting Murphy over as important to his gang of thugs. The 'Monday Night Messiah' takes any chance he can get to hype the ex-205 Live man as the future of WWE, and Murphy does well to let his in-ring work back those words up.

That must continue on Thursday night.

There's no need to give Seth a pinfall win over Angelo Dawkins or Montez Ford. Murphy needs it more, and he should be the one who gets the deciding fall for his team so Rollins can gush over his recruit even more. Why would WWE choose anything else? They need to show how important Murphy (don't call him 'Buddy') is to the cause.

Great tag-teams rely on both members, not just one. That should be the narrative from regular heel apologist Corey Graves in Saudi as he talks up Murphy's skills - matches like this one are made for enhancing wrestlers who need it, not those who don't.
