#2 Worst: Bad omen for singles push?

This was not the result I expected at all

Rumours are rife that Big E will win the Money in the Bank contest soon. If so, he needed a big win to kickstart his run. The Miz did tell the truth during the promo he cut at the top of the show. Big E has been booked as a comedy character for far too long to be taken seriously.

You may counter my argument by saying that The Miz won only because of a distraction. While that is a valid point, I thought the loss just diminished Big E. To be seen as a future WWE Champion, he needed more momentum.

Also, how can you drink Maple Syrup right out of the bottle? That's some gutsy stuff, Big E!
