I've already spoken about how Drew McIntyre made short work of Roman Reigns before his match against Baron Corbin. Well, this would irk Dean Ambrose who would step out to challenge The Scottish Psychopath. And the two men would battle all over the arena in a 'Falls Count Anywhere' match in the main event.

The idea was to have a great showing for McIntyre before he goes into WrestleMania as Roman Reigns' prospective opponent. And this was achieved because McIntyre managed to brutalise and destroy Dean Ambrose all across the crowd. So now, Reigns has reason to be mad at McIntyre and McIntyre has more momentum than ever before.

A story arc does not just happen overnight and sometimes needs to play out over many weeks. All the pieces are now in place for what should be quite a titanic clash at WrestleMania 35.
