Parker won ZERO matches but got a world title shot, makes no sense I know right?!
Anyway, Unless you have a infinite abundance of talent you will always have that issue with a weekly defended title regardless of where its position on the card.
If Austin Lee didn't rp or get his matches done I could see why you would question booking, but that's not the case.
People bitch there's not enough title matches, book them a title match every week, now they bitch about title matches every week.
Savages.
