Well, he's being fed to Cena. He's not being pushed so much on his merit as a contender, as he's being pushed as the "authority." Or the lackey to the Authority.
That being said, how much of a fighter does he NEED to be? Doesn't it work better if he's coming form nowhere to be the contender?
That aside, this still isn't an issue of win/loss records or the belt. The belt doesn't even feel like it's worth fighting for. You feel he's bad not because of his losing record, but because he hasn't had key wins or high profile matches. that's kind of a diffeent animal here.
