On paper this seems like a solid theory.

I have seen paper before. The belt is definitely not made out it it, Inno.

What is the point of your thread? A paper championship is generally considered to be nominal and unimportant in the grand scheme to the point where its holder is usually considered one and done.
CM Punk is a four time champion, main events almost all the pay per views as WWE Champion and is responsible for bringing interest back to the WWE. His opponents since his feud with Vince have been Cena, Del Rio, Miz and now Ziggler and I think Del Rio's injury prompted them to go with Ziggler. Del Rio is a multi-time champion and a star for the most part. Everyone bitches and moans about Cena being in the main event too much, and Miz was really only in that match as the third wheel. Looking at the Raw roster, who hasn't he faced that would make you think his reign is being marginalized? |

Cena, Dolph, del Rio, and miz. Their not full blown star power. However I wouldn't say he is a paper champion, its more like a "let's build for the future" champion. Even when he wins he doesnt just bury his opponent. He made del Rio and miz look pretty good at rock. And I think this match at rumble could solidify Dolph.

CM Punk isn't a heavyweight by any stretch of the imagination. What's your point?
Do you want Punk to face Big Show and Mark Henry? Big Zeke? What are you basing credibility on? I love Miz and Dolph, enjoy Del Rio and am okay with Cena. Beating Cena by itself is enough to show that he's not just a "paper champion". Horrible thread by the way. |

If someone outside of The Miz or del Rio is below your standards, then outside of Cena how many "heavyweights" are available for him to defend it against?

Wait, do you LITERALLY mean HEAVYWEIGHTS or "heavyweights" as in "big time opponents"?

They need to put Punk over Rock, Austin, Hogan and the rotting corpse of Andre The Giant in a 4-on-1 Handicap Match before I buy the guy as World Champion.
