Let us assume for the argument that the number one contender’s match last week on Raw had produced a result. What will be the landscape on Raw?

If Braun Strowman had won the match, Lesnar would have to beat him (again). This has already killed the momentum Strowman had in the earlier part of this year. We don’t expect WWE to do the same again.
If Kane had won the match, it would have been worse. No one, including WWE, wants to decorate Kane with the Universal title at the dusk of his career.
