The whole thing was a set-up for Cole v. Balor anyway. So including Gargano and Ciampa was pretty much pointless.
>i'm only semi excited for this tho. either way a 60 min >ironman on network tv seems insane
I would say that it's a play for ratings on a night that they have all to themselves, but from what I understand, historically iron man matches on network TV have been ratings poison.
And, as I mentioned above, it was a play to have Cole vs. Balor for the title on the second consecutive un-contested Tuesday night.
I also thing part of the problem is that the roster is feeling pretty thin due to "call-ups" and injuries. Keith Lee is on RAW. Kross is hurt. WALTER is in the UK. Loomis is hurt. I don't know who else you put in the title picture.
