Nevertheless, WWE’s portrayal of Zayn’s triumph, coupled with a post-match beatdown, added depth to the storyline.

2. **Why Chad, Why?:** Chad Gable’s predictable heel turn could be a game-changer. While it was expected, it sets the stage for potentially significant developments in his career. Gable’s turn has the potential to rejuvenate his singles push, and fans are eager to see where this storyline leads, especially with the possibility of a new stable formation.

3. **One Good Turn Deserves Another:** WWE is shaking up its roster dynamics with several heel-face turns, notably Liv Morgan and Rhea Ripley. The recent segment involving Ripley vacating her title and Morgan’s celebration showcased the effectiveness of a double turn. It’s a bold move that adds layers to their characters and keeps fans intrigued.

4. **Indie Hartwell Embraces the Dark Side:** In a surprising twist, Indie Hartwell embraced her heel side during a tag match, marking a significant shift in her character arc.

2. **Rushing the Crowning of a New Champion:** WWE’s decision to quickly crown a new women’s champion following Rhea Ripley’s injury has left some fans puzzled. The rushed process contrasts with the prolonged buildup of previous title tournaments, raising questions about the promotion’s storytelling approach.
