When WWE announced the World Cup tournament, the stage was set to be a truly special one with 8 world class competitors fighting it out to be labeled as the best in the world.

Kurt Angle, Seth Rollins, Rey Mysterio, Jeff Hardy, Randy Orton, Bobby Lashley, Dolph Ziggler and The Miz, the level of talent in this aforementioned list is tremendous.

After numerous classic battles, in the end, it was down to Dolph Ziggler and The Miz in the final, a historic rivalry which was reignited in the finale.

But with The Miz going down, the SmackDown Commissioner stepped up and eventually ended up being the winner. The WWE Universe does like Shane-o-Mac but with the amount of talent on both the shows, letting Shane win was a blunder.

This tournament would've done wonders to a Superstar's resume but letting Shane claim the trophy is not only bad for business but also lessens the importance of being labeled as the best in the world.
