By no means was the fact that Randy Orton brutalized Kofi Kingston this week on SmackDown Live a bad segment per se. But somehow, it still does not feel like a WWE Championship feud to me just yet. The issue may be where the segment is placed in the card, but personally, I'd have ended the show with something like this.
I know that the audience spurred Kofi Kingston right to the top, but we've reached a point where Roman Reigns' feud feels a lot more important than the title picture, unfortunately. You can't fault Orton or The Revival for this who seem to be working like a pack of jackals, tearing away at the flesh of Kofi Kingston.

In any case, I'm sure that the match at Clash of Champions will be good. Who is your pick to walk out as the winner at the pay-per-view event?
