The main problem I see with Issei loosing to Issei is that this is his main chance to show himself as a King becuase outside of the Azazel Cup he just the Pawn of Rias. Even If he is a king to Devil society Issei is Rias Pawn who just happened to become a KIng.and no matter what he does he will always be her Pawn, That's the big problem of being a Reincarnated Devil you don't escape prejudice just because you became a high ranking devil they just don't say it to your face any more thats all.
