This will surely be a good fight, but what next?

There are two matches this Sunday where a Superstar from one brand will take on his counterpart from the other brand - Roman Reigns vs Samoa Joe and Seth Rollins vs The Miz.

Reigns vs Joe is sure to be a hard-hitting match-up with one Superstar gaining a lot of momentum from the win, and any match involving Rollins will certainly be an exciting one.

But the problem with these two matches is that there is no possibility to carry the storyline forward, since the Superstars will go back to their own brands after Sunday.

When there is no story to be told in the future, the matches might end up seeming a tad pointless, barring of course, the momentum to be gained from the victory.

Also, it is unlikely that The Miz will win the match and take the Championship to SmackDown since the blue brand already has one mid-card title, the US Championship.
