They're the large focus of the show, but not against eachother. Triple H is part of DX, Orton has been fueding with Kofi and now is in a legacy storyline, and Cena was chasing Sheamus' title and now is in another angle.

I find it's far more interesting when those 3 are split up to fued with other talent, and do something new that doesn't have to do with the title.
It allows for someone else holding the title, which is fresh. In this case it's Sheamus.

I agree that the way Sheamus is being booked is awful if you look at it from a kayfabe point of view. He hasn't beaten anybody. But I think they're throwing kayfabe to the wind and trying to find a way to have their cake and eat it too (push Sheamus and not have to actually job any of their main eventers)
I guess they figure they can get away with it. Among their major fanbase, I'm sure they're succeeding.
As for me, I can see where you're coming from. I complained when they did the exact same thing with Jericho, but at this stage in the game I just don't care. I'm buying it because I am looking at it for what it is and not kayfabe.
