And now Chavo is the ECW Champion. Again, Chavo can't be compared to either Hardy or MVP at this point. It's a mid card title, while the US and IC Titles are upper-mid card titles, and then at the top are the World and WWE Titles.
I get what you're saying, and don't completely disagree, but recently the ECW Title has been booked better. CM Punk got to defeat the US Champion (albeit via disqualification, this decision actually confirmed what a lot of people thought about the belt being lower than a World Championship), but he still went over the US Champion. Punk is also involved in a little rivalry with Edge, who is the World Heavyweight Champion.

These little points, at least in my mind, take the belt from being mid-card, and move it to a plain somewhere between World and secondary title status.
