I'd much rather have seen a tournament done for the WWE United States Championship, rather than a Best of Seven Series Match:
-Have the first match be Booker T vs. Chris Benoit at Survivor Series, which Benoit wins.
-On SmackDown! we have WWE Tag Team Champion vs. WWE Tag Team Champion, with Joey Mercury taking on Johnny Nitro. Nitro picks up the win with help from Melina. Mercury looks like he's going to turn babyface on Nitro and Melina, but instead shakes Nitro's hand and gives him a hug.
-Paul London beats Brian Kendrick in a solid 20-minute match, pinning him with a new move he can start using as a finisher. London & Kendrick also stay together after the match.
-In the third partner vs. partner match, William Regal takes on Paul Burchill. The work an old-school wrestling match, with Burchill showing us what he has. Eventually Regal walks out on Burchill, leaving him to advance. Regal says he didn't want the WWE US Title in WCW, he doesn't want it now, and he's going to leave it up to Burchill whether or not he goes on to compete for a foul piece of trash like the WWE United States Championship.
-Ken Kennedy defeats Matt Hardy with a new finishing move to advance.
-Bobby Lashley beats JBL to move up.
-Rey Mysterio beats Randy Orton when the gong sounds during an RKO attempt, which allows Rey to push Orton off, dropkick him into the ropes, hit a 619, with him finally Droppin' the Dime to end the match.
-Simon Dean finally gets a win when he beats Hardcore Holly with some heelish tricks.
-In Round 2, Chris Benoit beats Johnny Nitro, which ends up being a really long match with Mercury and Melina helping Nitro out. Eventually Benoit counters Johnny Nitro handstand spinning leg drop into a Crossface for the submission win.
-Paul Burchill beats Paul London in a high-flying match. Regal watches from the rampway, to see how his (former?) scholar progresses.
-Ken Kennedy beats Bobby Lashley with help from The Dicks.
-Rey Mysterio beats Simon Dean in a cruiserweight classic.
-Round 3 has Benoit going toe-to-toe with Burchill. PB is distracted by Regal's presence again, and Benoit beats him in a hard-fought match.
-Ken Kennedy beats Rey Mysterio with the Lambeau Leap.
-In the final round we have two matches taking place. One is actually for the title, and it is Chris Benoit vs. Ken Kennedy, with Benoit picking up the win and his fourth WWE United States Championship. The other is a match between Paul Burchill and Rey Mysterio for the #1 Contendership, and for third place overall in the tournament. Burchill ends up losing the match when he, at the last second, comes to his senses and decides that the WWE US Title is not worth his attention, and walks out like Regal did in their first match.
This sets up some interesting storylines, lets tag team guys shine as singles competitors, develops some kind of division, and gives us a confirmed Chris Benoit vs. Rey Mysterio match in the near-future.
None of the matches would be really bad, so I guess you could even release it on DVD. 16 quality matches is something that would be worth a few bucks.
What do you think? Is the Best of Seven Series the best way to handle the US Title scene?
