CM Punk dominated Miz more than the scoreboard perhaps indicated.
That's an awesome way to describe what happened in that match without completely exposing the business. Wake the **** up Miz.
Do the IC and US titles need more focus and to be featured more? If you ask the question then, to you, the answer is yes. I personally agree that both these respected titles could use some shine. Both their champions are excellent and are expected to be a significant part of WWE's future...Rhodes and Ziggler.
I think you just unintentionally said everything that needed to be said there, Jim. <______<
LOL then he went back and corrected it.
Thats hysterical. Personally, if they werent gonna push Ziggler for real Id have rather seen him hang onto the title til now even. Of course, I think he and Rhodes should be feuding and putting each other over also but the brand split REALLY spreads you thin on that front.

From: Lopen | #049 I certainly think so. Unless he was like, hurting people, I can't see how is wrestling is worse than a good half the roster's.
Why we're on this why aren't divas pulled from TV for not having skills.
Divas have skills. Just not wrestling skills.
Ask Randy Orton, he'll let you know where each diva excels.

What I hate about the US title is that it went like this:
Ziggler:"THIS TITLE MATTERS" Ryder:"AND I WANT IT" [They feud over it for 6 months and make the title matter again] WWE:"...What? People are caring about the secondary title? QUICK, CALL SWAGGER TO SAVE THE DAY!"
Lawler's problem is that he just doesn't care. He hasn't cared about the product in years. I mean he's got to be the highest paid commentator on the staff, so you'd think he could pretend to care, but he doesn't even do that anymore.
I heard him legitimately perk up for R Truth during the debate and then...nothing.
Josh/Booker I would like to see by themselves for awhile. Josh/Regal is decent but Regal really isnt on the level of Booker or even Cole. Hes too soft-spoken and not nearly aggressive enough.

Yeah I really liked his promos using the US title's consistency as a prop to call himself better than Punk or Cena or Del rio at any given time. And it resonated because while the WWE titles switched hands like the town whore, Ziggler took down all challengers.
Although Ryder having the title and then immediately enter an angle where it didnt matter certainly didnt help things.
And now..well Jim Ross said it all.

I've never seen a guy just implode like this. As bad as his ring work has been (and it's been atrocious), I think his mic work has been even worse. He can barely get through a sentence without stumbling all over himself.

Poor Swagga. He wasn't even on Raw this week. Since Ryder won the title from Ziggler, that thing's been losing prestige at an absolutely crazy rate.

It also doesn't help that he only has one promo.

Xbox GT: PrivateBiscuit1 Down with Zhang. Let there be Biscuit!
Speaking of stable titles, today at long last Cody Rhodes has matched Jeff Hardy's '07-'08 IC Title reign, so as of tonight he will have the 19th-longest Intercontinental Title reign of all time, and the longest in 7 years.
The gap from 20 to 19 was a long one, but now the movement up the list comes much quicker. There won't be another big pause on Cody's ascension into immortality until he gets to 5th.

Its actually kinda crazy to think his first real defense feud was with Ted Dibiase and now Ted is once more just about the only legit competition for that title.
With Ted having a period of utter insignificance in between. It's been impressive.

Rhodes at one point defended his title thrice in a week, including in a battle royal. Rematched with Zeke, feud with Booker, mini-feud with Ted. Can't remember anymore but that's 7 defenses off the top of my head in about six months... not bad. Not exactly defending it all the time, but after the Booker feud he kind of started going after the whole "do an Ultimate Warrior" thing, while beating a bunch of mid-carders like Gabriel and Zeke. Like JaKyL said, there aren't many people there to challenge him for it right now.
Except Goldust HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH

From: JaKyL25 | #068 Remember back when Triple H was making him defend the thing in freaking BATTLE ROYALS?
He has persevered!
YOu know I think itd be funny if Cody started defending the thing against more and more random legends as a part of his " bringing the title back to its former glory"
The pity is that all of your famous IC title holders are dead or crazy.
Maybe he can cut a promo on how he is better than Mr.Perfect and feud McGillicutty?

It can still be done!
Road Dogg is right there, Godfather is still around, Marty Jannetty will take a booking, RVD might be available soon...
There are enough still out there. <_<

Oh yeah, I mean these guys are no Rick Rude, Ultimate Warrior, etc. But theyll certainly do!
Also I wonder if Steamboat can still work a match?
Maybe this'd be an opportunity to bring up Richie?

From: Lopen | #079 Seriously what's up with RVD and TNA the guy hasn't been on for like a month. And he hasn't been relevant for like 6
Is it still the whole "your contract only says you'll work this many matches so we can't use you much" thing?
IIRC his contract is up next month and he's saying he wants to go back to WWE (although that could just be a negotiation ploy) so they had him put over Gunner at Genesis and then just wrote him out thanks to Gunner's concrete DDT.
If he re-signs they bring him back, if he doesn't they don't and they have an excuse.

I've noticed that they've been a bit stricter on language lately (censoring some "ass"es even) so maybe Anderson used up their swearing quota for the year and like SmartMuffin said, he's really got nothing else on the depth chart behind that.

By the way, has there been any backlash against Jericho yet for telling Punk "Look at me when I talk to you, boy!" and then claiming to be Punk's master?
I assume it's just a matter of time.
