Jey Uso finally crashed out on WWE RAW when he attacked CM Punk in the main event. The YEET Master and The Best in the World were close friends on the red brand, but things eventually fell apart.

Rather than removing a title bout completely, WWE could have adjusted creatively. A Triple Threat involving Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY might have salvaged the match and preserved hype. Instead, a major championship clash disappeared, leaving the card with one less attraction.
