If they dont have a solid show to show to people, getting a bunch of exttra people watching for a week or two wont help anything, in fact it might do more harm than good.
It all depends how the character is handled. Knowing the WWE they will go too far with it, and thye'll get a backlash and may even lose viewers out of it. Also, putting the gimmick aside, if Magnus isn't ready which he probably isn't, then the character will die because the fans will reject him.
If it was me, I'd put the guy on SD. I think there are better stories for him over there. They already have a tag team that wave the flags of past and present enemies of the US, so adding an "Iraqi" talent would be a good fit.
Also, it would be kinda interesting to have either Angle or Bradhsaw (self proclaimed "Great Americans") aligning themselves with the anti-US Iraqi. There would be heat there.
