As far as the most likely next pick, I really don't know. Eddie and JBL have had plenty of time to build up to this match. And JBL has a lot of heat, which is pretty impressive, considering that this was no doubt some type of desperation move while creative fumbled around. Bradshaw has been with the company for quite a while now though and I can't recall him ever winning anything other than Tag Team and Hardcore gold.
He is obviously the contender for the title right now, since he is matching up against Eddie... But I'm not sure if the WWE would ever put the title on Bradshaw. Unless he continues to improve. That leads me to believe that the feud won't be a really long-time one, because Eddie would keep winning, and that'd get boring quickly (assuming they are not giving Bradshaw the belt.) And honestly, another reason I don't see it happening is because Eddie is on fire right now, he's really over, and his emotion is doing numbers for him. He looks to be strongly booked and continually pushed, and the best thing for that in my opinion is to feed him another guy.
Booker T is getting a sort-of heel push, he's an option, probably the likely one. I noticed that RVD and Eddie have made common enemies in The Dudleyz too, I could only hope for an RVD heel turn. He would rock that show as the top heel. And him and Eddie in a feud for the title would be beautiful. Book it similar to The Rock and Mankind's nice match-filled feud (maybe not so many title exchanges though) and you'd have gold.
RVD could be a heel and still remain strongly booked. He doesn't have to have that "pussy aura" that most heels adopt, where they seem inferior or fearful to/of their opponent. I think RVD going heel and putting on killer matches with Eddie in about equal strength would be awesome. I'm sure after time RVD's heel heat would wear off, because people love him, but that would be all right while they were putting on Five-Star matches, no pun intended.
