I think it's a great way to do it by the way. It comes out of nowhere but it makes a big impact, it's a splash.
By the way, I think it's because WWE is really desperate to make a change and turn the corner with new talent. Look at the champions other than HHH. They have Hogan and Warrior stars in Cena and Batista but at the same time WWE is probably looking for a face who is over among other fans, someone who's more of an HBK or Bret like star.
Could he have been built up better? Yea sure but in any situation things can be better. It's not like everyone is gonna get the 2 year IC title reign and then the Rumble win and title win in the main event at Mania.
I think it's great. All that matters is that they make him a main eventer now, he was already ECW champion and MITB, thats really no different than if they had thrown the IC belt on him for a year. He's over as fuck and this is just a launching pad
