What point did it serve to have Del Rio and Cena play hot potato with the belt? It did pretty much nothing for Del Rio after a year about him talking about his "destiny".
The whole idea behind the angle was to have Punk run around with the real belt. I dont know if that got them what they were looking for in terms of publicity. At the end of the day, Punk ended up going over Cena multiple times and then got a massive run with the title.

Another case of I'm not sure what more could be done to help Punk there.
