If they were to bring it back, and have, lets say, Kofi win it, I'd want them to go full out with the push, and not just stop the push the minute he misses a spot with Orton again, ya know?

The allure of it being KotR would mean so much more, and much more exciting if as a fan you KNEW it would create a new star, or thrust a guy towards the main event, similar to how the Royal Rumble USED to be.
I know how you mean, and I used to feel pretty much the same way. As of late though, I've been thinking about it with a more sports-oriented mind.

You know how people complain that former champions...lets say, Jack Swagger for example...start losing a bunch of matches/credibility after their title reigns? I don't think that's such a terrible thing. Think about a sports team that has an AMAZING season, but then they suck the next year. That has definitely happened before, and I don't think it's unreasonable for it to happen in WWE either.

Winning King of the Ring can sort of be equated to making the postseason playoffs. It's impressive to do it, but it doesn't guarantee that you're going to win the championship, you know?
