Reigns was visibly selling his frustration the entire match, and the commentators completely ignored it. AJ had the champion dead to rights, won the match twice technically, and not one mention. Reigns was selling as though he was going to snap out of frustration...not one mention. Also no one has mentioned the the phenomenal forearm is one-upsmanship of the superman punch Cole then completely turned on AJ, as if Styles were the heel, when Anderson and Gallows came out, and again, failed to pick up on the story point that AJ never saw them, and that maybe he wouldn't want to win like that. Great match completely destroyed by the commentators, and the count out/DQ nonsense. I was thinking it might work until I realized it was just a vehicle to advance the Shane vs. Stephanie storyline, and maybe set up a feud with the Usos/Roman and the Bullet Club. I can't see any point, if they continue he feud past the next pay per view, that AJ won't lose next time. There's still a lot of time to kill, and AJ holding the title for a month, or longer as they push forward with the Bullet Club-like stable. Dunno, typical WWE clusterfuck.

Definitely good points about the inept commentary completely failing to tell a story. I thought Roman did a way better job in that match than given credit for, but AJ and Roman were playing chess and the commentating team (this including Vince and Dunn barking into the headsets) are playing checkers.
