I am so psyched for Edge coming back. We all know that he's getting the WHC when he gets back. The only thing I don't like is that he's going to take it from Batista. To be honest, I really don't think Batista should have won the title back at all. I think Rey Mysterio should have won it at Unforgiven. It really would have made the most sense:
1. Rey Mysterio is the most over superstar on SD!, second maybe ONLY to the Undertaker. But Taker couldn't get the title back cuz he was returning to finish his fued with Mark Henry. PLUS Taker's getting his Main Event match with Edge (don't argue, we all know it's gonna happen) at WM.
2. The 619 gets one more WHC run. Mysterio is the most decorated wrestler of his size, ever. Why not give him more title runs? Mick Foley got three that hardly count, but he's still remembered as a 3-time WWE Champion. Rey could make for the very rare GOOD transitional champion. Even if his reign only lasted until Edge returned, he would still be a 2-time WHC.
3. Edge vs. Rey Mysterio would be a match we have never seen. Both these men are proven draws in the main event. Plus, they two of the top five best overall wrestlers in WWE, along with Shawn Michaels, Undertaker, and Finlay. They could put on a great match so long as management booked it properly and make it look like Rey has a real shot at retaining.
4. Batista would be out of the title picture for awhile. Batista could continue fueding with Khali, and then move on to his "long-awaited" confrontation with Mark Henry. Meanwhile. Edge would wrestle Mysterio, then Kane (because he was supposed to get his one-on-one shot for the title at GAB) then MAYBE Matt Hardy, and then start his WM fued with the Undertaker. The way I see it, we wouldn't have to see Batista in a WHC match until at least April, unless you were to use him in something like a Fatal 4-way or Elmination Chamber.
By throwing Edge back into the WHC title, you not only open up possibilities for new and exciting WHC matches, but you free up some of the other talent to engage in upper-midcard matches, thereby improving the quality of SD!, while at the same time, limiting the number of times we have to watch Shannon Moore wrestle all the while cringing whenever it appears as if he's going to gouge out Jamie Noble's eye with his hair.
Nuff said. rant over. I'm outta here.
Excelsior!!
