Ok, we all saw the tables match last night. There was the ending where Cena fell through the table and Sheamus fell off the top rope to the outside... But is that what was supposed to happen? Let's look at the evidence.
I present to you, the video of last night's events.

Ok first thing's first. Look at Cena's fall. It's quite clear that he jumps back without Sheamus pushing him or punching him. We can all agree on that. That part wasn't a botch, Cena was intentionally going for the table, even if he did move off to the right a little. Look at it closely. Cena was obviously jumping into the table. Despite what many people are claiming, it's not what Cena did that was the botch. It's what Sheamus did.
People are focusing on what Cena did. Maybe you should think about what Sheamus didn't do. Look at the above video. First, notice how awkwardly Sheamus falls off the turnbuckle. We've seen plenty of wrestlers fall of the top turnbuckle, but it never looked as awkward as that. It's like Sheamus slipped, fell to the apron then rolled off.
Now, the biggest piece of evidence. Look at the part where they do the close up of Sheamus. Notice anything? There's a toppled over table right beside Sheamus, a table that was set up earlier in the match. Now, call me crazy, but I see a link between Sheamus' awkward fall, and that table.
So, could it be that Sheamus was meant to fall off the turnbuckle through that table, thus ending the match in a draw? Perhaps the reason Cena went to the right side of the table was because he saw how Sheamus fell and tried to steer himself in a different direction as to avoid giving Sheamus the win. And Sheamus's music took a good few seconds to start playing after his win.... Hmmm....
So if this was, in fact, a botch, and it was meant to end in a draw, then where does WWE go from here? Will they make Sheamus drop the title as a soon as possible? Or see what it does for ratings?
Before I realised how likely it was that it could've been a botch, I thought Cena would win the rumble since he was WWE-title-less... But now I think we could see the Cena vs Sheamus rematch at Royal Rumble. I dunno, if the end was a botch, the WWE writers must have had a long day today to try and come up with a good solution. Tonight's Raw is going to be absolutely crucial for fixing this possible mess.
What do you guys think? If it was a botch, what's going to happen on Raw tonight? Rematch? Or Sheamus' acceptance speech?
