EDWARD does not have that much rep yet (10+)
That is true. MVP hasn't got a lot left in him. But I still think that one more good heel run will be good for him. At the least, they should give him one more title run, whether it be IC or the US title. Maybe he can give a good rub to one of the new guys with a tag team title run.

I don't get why people are saying he has little left. Hunter's 41. Shawn went until he was 45. Taker is 45 and Kane is 43 (there's your co- main event... so much for a youth movement). Hell, Batista was 36 when he first won the Heavyweight strap and became a true main eventer. Also, unlike all of those guys, MVP has never suffered a serious injury.

MVP's biggest problem is shitty booking, the need to tweak his gimmick, and a diluted talent roster on Smackdown.

I think people are associating the WWE "youth movement" with age. Tarver's 33 and Barrett and Kaval are 30 yet I'm pretty sure WWE is thinking long term with them. In my opinion, it's more about fresh faces than 20 somethings.

But Tarver isn't the main face of the Nexus, and being 30 still gives them a good 4/5 year run.

Long term bookings sees these 20s/early 30's wrestlers becoming main eventers over the next year or two, and then the two or three years of their run will slowly build mid-carders to the main event.

But WWE are so obsessed now with prematurely throwing people like Swagger and Sheamus etc into the main event, that people like MVP have already lost any chance they would have ever had at a decent push. Whether it's mid-card or main event.

Agreed. According to his wiki, he's only been wrestling professionally since 2002. That's about 9 years. It's not as if he's been around for 15 or 20 years and is injury plagued in his mid 30s (see Rey Mysterio).

I still beleive he has a great run waiting to happen. And as already stated, his booking has been his biggest problem The guy has shown the ability to connect with the fans twice, as heel and face.

I do feel that his current encarnation has run its course, and creative needs to add a different element to his character. I haven't watched SmackDown! in ages, thus having not seen what they're currently doing with creatively I'm commenting in ignorance, but you're only going to get so over for so long before you hit a wall.

Happens to everyone. The change in entrance music is good thing. The sample posted has a bigger feel to it. They just need to develop the character further in order for the theme change to actually signify something.

I truly hope he's not done in terms og getting a chance. At one point he was the brightest star with the biggest future before being sent to rot on Raw's midcard. MVP still has a lot to offer.
