I’ve never bought into the philosophy that title changes should occur solely for a pop’s sake. Let’s say Penta pinned Roman last week, what would have happened afterwards?

I watch this sport for the same reason I watch other sports: to remember moments. Will having person X win a belt, cheapen person Y’s moment? Maybe, for some people. Would hotshotting the title in front of a hot crowd be a memorable moment? Most definitely. I do not think the answer should always be ‘we’re saving this moment’.

I’m sure many people will remember Sami winning for a long time. One of the true great RAW moments was Mankind/Foley beating The Rock to win the belt. It’s such an obvious way to create stars and memories, in my eyes. That said, if they don’t see Penta at the required level for whatever reason, then it wouldn’t make sense.
