There won't be a new IC Champ next week. D-Mac will do something to screw it up and re-involve himself, he's not going anywhere.
I, too, hope this is just something to keep Christian busy until Big Show jobs to Swagger. He's been mentioning the WHC in all his promos, both on TV and the backstage ones, so we'll see.
Let's not forget, both Rey Mysterio and Jericho have held the title within the last year.
It's not a big deal if he jobs to any of those mid-card guys to give them a strong win before he moves on. It won't make him look weak if he were to lose to Kofi. It only will to Drew if he gets squashed, which wouldn't surprise me but I don't think so.
As far as MVP goes, he's not as over as Christian, plain and simple. He may get huge pops in some places but you can tell just by how he's booked and as much as they try to make the playmaker look good, he's not thought of very highly right now.
Bottom line, MVP was the biggest draft pick last year and this year he moved in the supplemental draft to not a whole lot of reaction. Christian was a main draft pick. It's pretty simple. Smackdown's a good place for MVP but they tried him out on Raw and he's not working as well, whereas Christian's working well everywhere right now...
MVP has a new finisher now, he dropped the Playmaker last week. Morrison and Kennedy went in the supplemental draft last year and they were scheduled for world title matches. It means nothing. They moved MVP there cause they needed a "star" pick in it, same reason Hart Dynasty and Cody went in it. They didn't want to spam it up with the Chris Masters' of the WWE moving shows.
We'll see. That's it, we'll see.
