The former Cruiserweight Champion Murphy has already established how good he is in the ring with his part-involvement in the Roman Reigns whodunnit angle followed by a brilliant series of matches against Aleister Black. The Best Kept Secret had embarked on a winning run in late 2019 before his losing streak against The Dutch Destroyer.

Murphy finally found his calling again after he reunited with Seth Rollins and ended up winning the RAW Tag Team Championships before eventually dropping the titles.

Murphy is destined to be a big player in the near future. Following weeks of absence, he finally had the chance to work towards the same in a Money in the Bank qualifier match against Rey Mysterio which he unfortunately lost. While I don't have a big issue with Mysterio participating, he's at that phase of his career where he should be putting over up-and-coming Superstars.

The Master of the 619 has nothing more to prove and has already talked of retirement. So WWE could have taken a gamble and allowed Murphy to pick up a monumental victory while giving him a chance to finally endear himself to the mainstream audience at the same time.
