4 Things WWE did right at Super Showdown 2019

#2 Having Mansoor win 50 Man Battle Royal

Mansoor debuted as a prospect last year but has taken to WWE and its style quickly.

Once the field of 50 (or 51) competitors in the battle royal at Super Showdown was whittled down, any of the final ten men could have conceivably won the match. Ricochet and Ali are among the better babyfaces in WWE whereas Samoa Joe and Cesaro are great, physical heels who can bully opponents with their technical ability.

Even though he's only had a handful of appearances on NXT TV, Mansoor has already proven to be someone to watch going forward in NXT. Despite losing to Dominik Dijakovic, he kicked out of devastating moves many times. He also defeated Riddick Moss during a recent episode of the yellow brand.

Some people think that having Mansoor win was merely a result of him being from Saudi Arabia. That might be true, but how did the crowd react to his win? They would have blown the roof off of the stadium had the event not been held in an outside stadium. Even though there wasn't a title shot attached to the winner, it was a win that gave him a huge rub that some of the other stars didn't necessarily need.

The main point is that while it would have been fine had Ricochet, Cesaro or Joe won the match, they are already established stars. Mansoor winning not only gave him a rub but it also shows that Superstars can come from anywhere.
