It says a lot about how the Jey/Gunther feud is going when the whole big Rumble pitch is going on to main event WrestleMania not be buried in the midcard.

This call causes multiple problems. It means neither Rumble winner gets a main event. It means "Main Event" Jey Uso is once again midcard. It means no women headliners again. It burns the story of Punk finally headlining Mania for a secondary spot.
To be fair, I don’t think the women’s matches would make sense to main event the show based on the current programmes. Neither feel big or like there’s been a major build up. If it had been Rhea v a returning Lynch, then maybe.
Hhmm I can’t see that one. They’d done nothing with Belair for absolutely ages, buried in the tag division so, even with a Rumble win, there’s not loads of attention going into it. And would have taken a lot to get it there by Mania.
I don’t think it matters which night it headlines, but agree the story feels a bit half baked and destroys the whole of winning the Rumble and headlining Mania…except you don’t!
Punk's quest to main event Mania could have been a big story in next years road to Wrestlemania but you can't re-tell that story now, just for the sake of being a minor plot point in a muddy, tepid three-way story.
