I remember one of the recent case holders using it to set up a match.

I think he's doing this as an act? That he's the aloof, "rusty" commentator. But when Cole can't keep whether Styles or Nakamura won THE MATCH THAT JUST FINISHED, it falls super flat.

With gimmick stuff, that allows them to get the match losers out of the ring, clean up any ladders, replace turnbuckles, and check the ring. It's a necessary evil that they used to cover over with much more frequent backstage interviews.
