EEK!

Shinsuke Nakamura was given the ol' heave-ho after just one week in the challenger role. Quickly, WWE pivoted towards Drew McIntyre and wrapped up his mini-feud vs. Sami Zayn so the big Scot could become Roman Reigns' next major obstacle. Few fans would've been unhappy about that upgrade.

However, those same folks should be worried about where things are headed next. Someone has to take the fall in that six-man tag at WrestleMania Backlash - it should be Riddle, Randy Orton or one of The Usos, but that doesn't mean it definitely will be. What if Drew gets pinned by Roman instead?

That'd suck, 'cause then the Undisputed Title challenger would look second-rate against SmackDown's 'Tribal Chief' before their rivalry ever gets back to being one-on-one. Think of this as a two-part worry though. WWE have previous when it comes to shoving others aside in favour of certain comeback kings.

Yes, that means this guy would be back in the fold...
