If you actually consider the pool of talent that competed in the Fatal Fourway match to become the next Universal Championship contender, it is easy to rule out the other three participants. I mean Braun Strowman should have been Universal Champion by now, but he's received far too many shots at the title.
Moreover, if you consider the rumors, there's a lot of backstage heat that he's facing. Which brings us to Lashley, who just does not seem ready for the top spot.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.
As long as he had Lio Rush in his corner, he had someone who was quite competent and exemplary on the microphone. But now that he's all by his lonesome, he needs a manager to speak on his behalf.
Which leaves us with The Miz, who is 'awesome' (no pun intended), but can you really imagine him as the face of WWE RAW?
