Since Brock Lesnar, the WWE has freaked the shit out about pushing anyone to the moon as quick. The WWE want to make sure Barrett handles being on mid-card duty when he has to and (perhaps even more importantly) the travel schedule of being a WWE Superstar.

As Barrett approaches a year with the company without incident, still doing fantastic work even though his latest job has been to look second to Ezekiel Jackson -- it seems prime time for a MITB win, doesn't it? Don't expect a quick cash-in, though.

Espicially since he (like Miz) could hold onto the briefcase for a while and just talk about it and still be relevant. Someone like Kofi wouldn't be able to do that...

That's exactly it. Barrett can talk about biding his time, waiting until the time is right, etc. Kofi can talk, but a babyface can't do things like that as effectively. They could do a "journey to the top" for Kofi, but Barrett, essentially, has been tested more, and he's got the marketability of a top star. Like previous years, the briefcase on him would be a "Hey guys, we're sure about this guy, so start using him right" mark against his name.
