3 Moments The WWE Got Right: Randy Orton Eyes The US Title

WWE built towards the Elimination Chamber PPV, and they also unveiled the first ever SmackDown Live Top 10 rankings. What were the top three booking decisions creative got right this week?

WWE continued to build towards the upcoming two PPVs, Elimination Chamber and Fastlane respectively. Raw featured a handful of qualifying matches for the match to determine the number one contender for the Universal title at WrestleMania. SmackDown however went ahead with the Owens-Zayn saga and unveiled that we will have a triple threat match for the WWE title at Fastlane.

However, there was one more curve ball. According to a YouTube video WWE released yesterday, the winner of Dolph Ziggler’s match against Baron Corbin will be added to the match. Talk about stacking the odds against AJ Styles though. The reigning WWE champion will now have to defend his title against four other opponents. With the prospect of a dream match between Styles and Nakamura hanging in uncertainty, will the champ be able to retain his title?

On Raw, the latest chapter in the Seth Rollins – Jason Jordan saga unfolded before our eyes as Jordan costed yet another opportunity for Rollins. This seemed to have been the beginning of the suspected WrestleMania program between the former tag champions. But since Jordan is indefinitely out of action after undergoing a neck surgery, the future of this program remains to be seen. It seems like so many last-minute changes are being made at the moment. Fortunately for the WWE, most of those changes seem to be hitting the right notes. One of those is the first entry in our list for this week.
