At Extreme Rules, while some may viewed some of the matches as ending in a predictable manner, one of the biggest shocked of the night was when The New Day became the new tag team champions. Kidd and Cesaro had a lot of momentum behind them but the rising stars were able to pull the upset and win the match.
Moments like that are what make the WWE so exciting. For example, during the Seth Rollins/Randy Orton match it could be predicted that Kane would be the reason the match would go a certain way as the gate keeper. A shock did happen in that he chokeslammed both Randy Orton and Seth Rollins but the fact that Rollins walked away still champion could have been predicted. History has shown that when a title changes hands, the title remains with the new champion at least through the next PPV. Had Seth lost it would have been an interesting surprise. On the other hand, having someone lose the title so soon after winning it causes them to have a short reign and doesn’t give them enough time to show their skills as a champion.
While there are multiple variables in the equation, the task to make the WWE as unpredictable as possible has been done and can be done with the right ingredients. Here’s hoping the next PPV leaves even more surprises like the double choke slam and the victory for The New Day.
