This is the problem with Smackdown and I see it being a huge problem for MVP down the line unless they switch things up drastically.

Smackdown only has 2 over faces. Rey would be the third, and even if he were around he's so small and underdogish that he lacks the credibility needed to put someone over.

So for MVP to get over as a heel champion on Smackdown, he'd have to go over Undertaker or Batista. The problem is they're built as such monsters that they're "unbeatable". The whole show is really, everyone is either a lummox of a monster or a cruiserweight. There's no medium since all the normal guys are on Raw.

Raw is full of average heavyweight sized faces like HHH, Hardy, HBK and Cena who, even though pushed hard and credible, can be seen as beatable for a guy of MVP's size, skill, and accomplishments in kayfabe.

For Taker and Batista, he'd have to completely screw them like Edge always has in the past and that does him no favors. Especially as a first time champion and rising heel star who needs the credibility from his title win more than just the title
