At the end of the day, people have short memories and the fact that Rollins got pinned by Roode will not factor into the larger story. This is especially true because it happened off a miscue in a tag team environment, and he has a chance to redeem himself in the main event.
Seth Rollins is guaranteed to stay at the top of the card, and while he's been protected, he's never been protected as much as say, Brock Lesnar, who hardly ever takes a pin. Chances are that this will be the end of Seth Rollins' tag team exploits at least for a little while. And so Roode benefits and so does Ziggler, but Rollins isn't really affected.
Let's hope that Roode uses the momentum to take on actual tag teams and elevate them. The Viking Raiders and AoP could have great programs with this team.
