Give this man some love! His promos are among the best already

Like Murphy, Ali had been routinely having great matches on SmackDown and 205 Live. If you haven't seen them, you can't be blamed because not everyone who watches RAW and SmackDown necessarily watches 205 Live. Even when he was "promoted" to SmackDown late last year, he was only featured in the early stages of 2019.

His injury prior to Elimination Chamber famously led to Kofi Kingston's rise to becoming WWE Champion. The promos he cuts are among the best ones in WWE but they too often don't make it to TV. Why they don't and he does not is beyond my grasp.

Ali winning the tournament would be a consolation prize if he was supposed to get Kingston's booking, but he's still new to the main roster. Things could ultimately change drastically due to the move to FOX for SmackDown. Ali is still a face and provides fantastic matches. This might be the run he was supposed to have earlier this year. I'd be all for him winning it if something more is attached to winning instead of getting a crown and scepter.
