#1 No storyline continuity

Bryan came up short against Rusev
Bryan came up short against Rusev

Rusev received the much-awaited push and to everyone's delight, he is now going to be a part of the MITB Ladder Match.

He beat Bryan clean which says a lot. While Rusev was the one who was in dire need of a win and a clean win over Bryan speaks volumes, there was no involvement of Big Cass. Cass should have been the one to cost Bryan the match.

Afterall, Cass beat down on Bryan after Bryan beat him at Backlash and this week, the seven-footer didn't even make an appearance.

Hopefully next week we see Cass calling Bryan out and both of them having a go at it because leaving this storyline the way it is leaves a lot in the air.

While Cass and Bryan have a confrontation next week, an angle involving Samoa Joe as well will help a lot.

Not to forget, a confrontation between Styles and Nakamura too would be accepted with loud pops.
