3 Interesting observations from this week's SmackDown Live (May 21, 2019)

#1: Does Roman Reigns' current feud deserve to headline weekly shows?

Roman Reigns faced Elias in a MITB Rematch during the main event

While I really appreciate the fans' newfound love for Roman Reigns after his miraculous return to WWE, it really feels like despite having other interesting stories on the same show, the sole focus seems to be on Roman Reigns' current arc each and every week.

On top of that, this particular angle tends to headline main roster shows even when there is nothing new to add. It makes sense to have Roman Reigns be the biggest part of the show, after all, The Big Dog has transitioned into a household name over the years.

To be fair, I really liked the Elias-Reigns bit in the parking lot, where The Drifter was stationed on the top of a production truck.

But other than that, the main event followed a 'rinse-and-repeat' trope all over again. Now The Big Dog will have to fend off Drew McIntyre one more time, even when we all know that this only ends with Shane McMahon and Roman Reigns taking care of business against each other.

Then again, we don't have a definite idea of what will happen to this arc next week, but don't be surprised if it's just a different variation of a plot point that we have already witnessed before.
