Extreme Rules was a fantastic show with very few hiccups
#1 Worst: Devaluing the WWE Championship?

AJ Styles and Rusev put on a great match!
Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler did end the night with a fantastic contest, for sure. The fact remains however that the Intercontinental Championship is a mid-card championship on RAW. At the same time, the WWE Championship is the top prize on SmackDown Live. The fact that it went on before the Intercontinental Championship match was a tragedy.

Yes, kids, the Intercontinental Title is now more important than the WWE Title.I choose to give all credit for this to The Miz.#ExtremeRules
It is clear to see that WWE views RAW as the superior brand. It is also clear that AJ Styles' championship doesn't mean much.
