The report stated that WWE did this on purpose to please those at FOX, which airs the SmackDown show every Friday. Meltzer said that WWE feel that their relationship with FOX is more important than that of USA Network, which airs RAW every Monday night. Meltzer said that WWE are guaranteed their show on the USA Network as the network requires a brand like RAW each week.

WWE wants to enhance the storyline and make it as big as possible. Since Roman Reigns is the company's biggest full-time star, it only makes sense to make him front and center of the hottest angle in wrestling. Hopefully, it reflects in the ratings and the FOX executives are pleased.
