Could be worse. They could just not have a title like RAW for 3 months after Mania.
Jinder is an old school heel champion. He's beaten no one cleanly as of late. Heels are suppose to cheat. He's better than Corbin on the mic and Owens is a boring champion IMO who can't get real heat. The WWE has always thought highly of Jinder as he was in the original finals match of NXT vs Rollins. Sure they stuck him in that horrible 3MB trio but they sure got a lot of face time for a crap faction.
Ratings with the belt on Orton were terrible so I don't have a problem with him dropping the belt to anyone on the roster. Smackdown is the "let's try anything show" and odds are Jinder is a transitional champion to either Cena, AJ or Naka. Or Smackdown can be that show to develop the next superstar by having the likes of Corbin, Big E, Harper or Rusev battle for the main title picture while the likes of AJ/Naka battle with Owens for the US title.
