I really don’t think anybody is ready right now, except maybe Brock but please don’t revisit that so soon.
Top 3 candidates are probably McIntyre, Rhodes, or Orton but none of them feel there just yet.
As I said in the mega thread; I’d sooner they keep it on him even if he’s off TV, sort of like The Summer of Punk angle put done right. You have the rest of the roster fighting it out to prove themselves worthy of a shot. You can even tell a story with the MITB holder who can’t cash in because the champ isn’t around, or has limited opportunity to do so. Or the holder has to name his time and place (RVD style) in order to force Roman out.
In my head I had Cody as a heel MITB holder with a nefarious cash in, but the above could work quite well with him as a face.
Hitting the sweet spot timing wise is going to be difficult. They got it right with McIntyre, or would have if not for a pandemic that meant there were no fans in attendance. I’m not sure they can get it spot on for Cody.
