Now they rush the process and if they put the IC/US belt on you, Vince says "Hey, but this jobber over." He either puts too much faith in them or kills their push when they don't connect with the audience.
Let's not forget the more recent example of rushing to push a new guy in WWE: Sheamus. He debuted on ECW in late June, 2009, within months was transferred to RAW, given a title shot for the WWE Championship vs. Cena at TLC in December of that year where he beat Cena in a Tables match. I'm no great fan of Cena, all the veteran posters here know I make no secret of that. But was it really necessary at that point in time to rip the title away from Cena just because they wanted this fresh, young Irish "lad" to get more attention? I think not.
