Either way - cleanly or not, Jericho was NOT made to look superior to Batista.
In the weeks leading up to that confrontation, I also recall Batista completely and utterly dominating Jericho in almost every confrontation that they had.
In my opinion, this is just bad booking....and simply helps re-enforce the idea that Jericho is nothing more than a transitional champ. In my opinion, there's a difference between a clean win....and a DECISIVE clean win. Getting a clean win, via roll-up or by some other NON-convincing technique, doesn't do a whole lot in terms of establishing a guy as a true main-eventer.
Also - great points about Big Show. I didn't think of it like that. I guess one advantage of Kane is that he wouldn't be limited to being a 'dominant big man' like Show would.
