You do realise that Kofi Kingston has been going over Shelton Benjamin on regular occasions, right? And that Shelton Benjamin has already held the Intercontinental Title on three separate occasions? The man has held it enough for the time being, and his gimmick will get a lot more development on SmackDown!. And Benjamin will probably also get a lot more ring time.

Also, the belt does not need to be around the waists of guys who are above it, like Chris Jericho, Shawn Michaels, CM Punk, etc. It should be used to give the mid-card relevance. That being said, I think they pulled the trigger on the title change too soon, as now that they are without a World Title, the IC Championship is the top ranking belt on RAW, which means that Kofi Kingston is now the best wrestler on the RAW roster. That's a little too surreal, even for my tastes.

Lance Cade could have helped Jericho get the win, and then Jericho could have handed it off to Cade on RAW. That would put the belt on a guy who has never held it, and could use it as a stepping stone, and it seems to be someone the WWE wants to use in the main event. The WWE does seem to really life Kofi, though, so maybe there are plans to use him in a big role, too.
