I thought that the interaction between Samoa Joe and Chad Gable was absolute gold. Joe is the ultimate bully and Gable came out looking like the ultimate underdog following the segment.
Unfortunately, what the segment did is that it spoiled what would have been a genuine surprise, with regard to Gable defeating Andrade, one of SmackDown Live's most prominent Superstars. It would also give us a glimpse of the finals because Joe and Gable will likely be clashing in it.

I just think that there aren't enough genuine surprises in pro wrestling anymore and this would have been a nice one, in my opinion. This segment could always have happened right before the match at Clash of Champions.
In any case, Chad Gable is getting his long-overdue push, after fans clamored for it for millennia, and so is Samoa Joe, and hence, I should not be complaining!
