They keep with the bigger picture of the story. The bigger picture is to create a new face of the WWE. Sami's not it. He earned a spot in future main events. That's way more than ppl would have thought a year ago.

Zayn’s appearance in the main event would have been hard to imagine, even for his most optimistic fans in the recent past. However, the unthinkable became possible thanks to some great creative choices. The outcome of the actual encounter is a debatable topic, as the divided web world shows.
The main event had a bit of everything
As has been customary with this storyline, the match had everything. The aforementioned intrusion by Jimmy Uso, referees getting hurt, and an even more dramatic appearance by Jey Uso. His indecisiveness over which side to pick made for a must-watch entertainment. The post-match beat down on Zayn ensured that long-time friend Kevin Owens had to come to his aid. A potential tag-team titles match looks to be on the card for WrestleMania 39.

Whether that will be the case eventually remains to be seen. A bruised ‘Head of The Table’ will move on to ‘The Showcase of Immortals’, where he will face a stern test against ‘The American Nightmare’ Cody Rhodes.
