5 Things we learned from WWE Battleground!
3. Enforce clean finishes in high profile matches
AJ Styles and Kevin Owens are definitely the torchbearers of the Smackdown brand. Styles captured the US title from Owens at a live event in Madison Square Event, rather surprisingly. Generally, titles do not change hands at non-televised events and hence, executing such a finish at Battleground and giving the title back to Owens was baffling.
Even though a rematch is on the cards for Summerslam, such a finish takes away from the sheen of the rivalry. What is the point of handing someone of the calibre of AJ Styles the title for just a week! Even some underhanded tactic by Owens to end the match would have been a better ending for this fight.
