We (the WWE universe) should be extremely excited that Murphy’s Law will potentially be enacted in the WWE maybe even as soon as this fall after SummerSlam. His name has been brought up twice now. It was brought up once involving the Roman Reigns situation and again several weeks ago by Shane McMahon when he was discussing the Kevin Owens situation. He may very well be a pivotal start of the future. Moving on, Murphy may have given away Daniel Bryan and Rowan as the guilty party in the Roman Reigns incident, as they were expected to be revealed as the culprits. This match, which I discuss in Superstar Sagas, should be a great one.

It was also a genius move for WWE to book the Aleister Black – Sami Zayn match to take place on the go-home episode of SmackDown Live right before SummerSlam. It surely got more of a spotlight than it would have at the pay-per-view. If it were to have been booked at SummerSlam, it probably would have ended with a quick Black Mass kick from Black. He is a guaranteed future WWE Champion by the way, with his stoic demeanor and his extremely elaborate entrance.

Side Note: One last thing to take note of from SD Live this week is how well the match between Kofi Kingston and Randy Orton is being positioned. Orton will unfortunately not win this feud, however it will serve to help Kofi gain major favor with the WWE universe, because Orton is being portrayed as a terrible human being who seeks to hold others down while he has gotten all the glory in his career. WWE is seeking to establish Kingston as a legitimate main event player (which the WWE universe has had a little bit of a hard time buying into after 11 years of Kofi being a mid-carder. Fans may not have been sure if he would be simply a transitional champion or if WWE was serious about pushing him).

Kofi Kingston will nonetheless be remembered as one of the greatest WWE superstars of this era. It has also been very smart of WWE to allow his WWE Championship reign to marinate for a while so he can be established as a legitimate main event caliber talent. This did not work a couple of years ago with Jinder Mahal, but I’m optimistic it will succeed with Kofi because the WWE universe already had a great amount of respect for the work he has put in over the last 11 years. It just may take a while for fans to get used to his title presence.
