I genuinely mean no disrespect to Mansoor who is a talented young man who's doing his job. But did you notice the chorus of boos that accompanied him when he came out to face Dolph Ziggler at WWE Super ShowDown? Even the audience in attendance is sick of seeing a man who only wins in their country and loses everywhere else.
It's become predictable to a point where the audience that wants to root for him knows the result even before he steps out to perform. The best way to remedy this situation would be to have some kind of build for every match where the audience can invest in the storyline that Mansoor is involved in. Maybe have Dolph Ziggler bully Mansoor with the help of his friend Robert Roode, leading to the young man pledging revenge and retribution upon both the heels.
A throwaway match of the nature that Mansoor was involved in this week is really insulting to the audience in Saudi Arabia as well, being served the same thing again and again.
