I agree they may get lazy about booking other matches, thats what I was saying, they throw some guys in there instead of booking them elsewhere, but MITB itself is hardly lazy. KOTR also has the same level of thought put into it normally. The qualifying matches are hardly any more well thought out or planned than MITB qualifying matches are. And the final 4 or 2 in KOTR is a lot more predictable and random than the top picks of MITB. They pick guys cut from the same cloth to compete. They could easily have defenses of one or both secondary titles and MITB on the same show.

This year you had Punk win it and could have still had Kennedy, Jeff Hardy (providing he didn't fuck up), Morrison, Shelton and potentially other guys involved in the match that would give it more than enough star power..while still having Matt Hardy vs MVP for the US title and Jericho vs someone else.
Theres enough talent to do all 3, or at the very least MITB and one of those titles defended.

The IC title not being defended is nothign new since MITB, it hadn't been defended years prior to it.

I will settle for KOTR and MITB equaling the same thing for all intents and purposes, but I don't think KOTR is in any way a superior booked or managed contest.
