#2 Another screwy finish for the WWE Championship?

I feel like Shinsuke after another WWE Championship match finish.

I think the WWE hates their fans sometimes. How else can you explain a feud between AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura being booked so terribly? We have now had three WWE Championship matches in less then a month and two have ended with a stupid non-ending.

As with the Greatest Royal Rumble the match was just starting to get really good. It took quite a while for the No-DQ match to actually have No-DQ elements but that crowd was getting into it. Then they hit each other in the balls and it ends. What was that?

How can a bout with no disqualification end with a double count out? Is that a real thing that can happen? It was another cheap finish that stretched out the feud in another unnecessary and frustrating way. These are two strong performers and we can’t get a real finish in a majority of their matches? It added another layer of disappointment to an already disappointing night.
