No one sees the problem with this? I know there are a lot of people who deserve it, but there have always been a lot of people who deserve it who never got it. As unfair as it was, them not getting it continued to make the belt that much more treasured. When Benoit and Jericho would fued for the IC Title, with everyone (marks and smarts alike) knowing full well they could be World Champs, it not only made the World Title something everyone should always be driving for, but it made the undercard look credible. Too many former World Champs hanging around the midcard shockingly makes not only the World Titles look useless, but also deminishes interest in the undercard itself. Who cares if JBL or Benoit are US Champs, both are former World Champs, it's a step down for both of them, and because of that there is less interest. The only titles I think former World Champs should fight for (a few exceptions to be made) are the Tag Titles. I don't care what anyone says, I have no problem with Super Teams.

Sports change. Home run races weren't always a part of baseball. Hundred point games weren't always part of basketball. Hell, the Shot clock wasn't even part.
Why should our sports entertainment be different? MOre championship reigns? Wow. Shocking. Because WWE never progressed either.
