I understand you people's concern over Orlando beating Cena only weeks before WrestleMania, where Cena is in the Smackdown main event for the Title. It would have been cool for John to win the WWE Title, then celebrate his victory holding both titles and looking like a champ (see: Jericho when he won the Undisputed Titles, he looked like a bad ass carrying both belts).

But at the same time, John Cena doesn't need the US Title to make his victory at WrestleMania any bigger. It would just lead to a tournament on Smackdown, or some other lame shit. Given, this situation is pretty lame too, but it gives someone else a chance with the US Title, furthers the JBL/Cena feud, and sets up another title match at Mania.

The WWE must know that Jordan is shit (JBL's shit too, but at least he can talk). OJ will job the title to a more deserving FACE at WrestleMania (probably Haas) and the title will become a mid-card belt again, instead of Cena's pretty little trophy. Cena is a main event player now - the US title is below him. I'd like to see Haas with the US Title as well, but what sense would it have made to give Charlie (a face) a victory over Cena (also a face)? This way, the Cabinet has a one-up on Cena by taking his title away, and a face can win the US Title at Mania. It's all about business.
