#3 Best: Mustafa Ali's push

Ali will get a push on the roster like few others have, from the looks of it
I have a few reservations about Mustafa Ali's push. I would have done vignettes to establish him before pushing him to the moon. I was going to slot this into the Best/Worst section. But then, maybe the positives outweigh the negatives.

Yes, it's not a wise decision to pin the WWE Champion on TV. Brock Lesnar would never take a pin like that. But then, maybe these are the steps you have to take to establish a new star.
Daniel Bryan will remain over irrespective of whether he gets pinned or not. But on this day, everyone's going to be talking about Mustafa Ali.
Can anyone dispute the fact that this athletic, charismatic and inspiring WWE superstar is totally worthy of the push that he's received from the creative team in the blue brand?
