#1 To garner more heel heat for Shane McMahon
Shane McMahon remained a face since his return to WWE. His turn against the Miz coupled with the tag of "Best in the World" gives him the chance to become a new version of Mr. McMahon.
The evil boss character was made famous by his father and the Chairman of the company, Vince McMahon and Shane strives to continue the legacy as Vince can't take part in in-ring action anymore due to his age.

The crowd at Hartford Connecticut cheered the Miz with all their might and desperately wanted him to get one over his boss. The referee's mistake to break the pin when the same rules don't apply to a Steel Cage match surely ties in with the fear of the boss, as Corey Graves explained.
With a sneaky win, Shane garnered more heel heat from the crowd which he needs for his next feud.
