In this day of age, anybody has the chance to become WWE/WH Champion (ie. Swagger, Sheamus, Miz, Hardy) because the belt is just a prop nowadays.

Oh Naitch you poor, poor mark. The belt has always been a prop and always will be because it is a pre-determined "sport". Anyone that thinks otherwise is no better than the kids that think Cena is the greatest
wrestler ever.
As for Koslov, no I don't think he will ever be a World Champ. Nor should he be.
You can use the "Well Jeff/Miz/Khali/Sheamus/etc managed it" angle or you like but it means jack (just like the "If Koko is in the HoF, anybody can be" argument). Hardy was one of, if not the most over guy in the company at the time. Sheamus and Miz are worlds better than Koslov on the mic, in the ring and in their past accomplishments/achievements. Kahli is a spectacle, you could put the belt on him any day of the week and people would buy it cos he's a fucking giant.
Koslov might be imposing but he lacks ANY "x factor". The guy comes across devoid of any personality. He is a fantastic "straight man" to Santino's comedic foil and long may he stay that was - it's the only time he's been interesting.
Honestly, I'd rather see Santino "get serious" and win the title.
