2563407, I think they've made the decision to keep the belt off him a while

And it's a good one for all the reasons you said
He doesn't need it right now, let him claw his way to the top as a good guy. Go through HHH and whatever goons get thrown at him, perhaps win the Rumble and get the belt again at Mania.
Meanwhile you keep the belt on KO for a while, get a cheap win at NOC, feud with Cesaro after his comeback vs Sheamus for a bit and everyone will be happy.
I wonder what the plan would have been if Balor didn't get hurt. Was the HHH turn on Rollins a last minute trigger they pulled now that they hadn't planned to? I feel like it had to be, no way they were turning Balor heel that fast.
