>>14438918Phil and Braun are returning from injury this year, so probably them. I think they pretty much had to call it there because there were literally no credible challengers left. In the time it'd take to call someone from NXT up and try them out on the main-roster, you could literally just put the title on someone else for a long amount of time and have them put the new guy over. Cody winning was the right choice because now he can fill that colorful babyface role that's been desperately needed since Cena left.
