the reason kotr should be brought back is because for the past year or so, the mid card scene in wwe has been really interesting in that all the mid-carders could basically be main eventers on any given night. i mean, to all those people that are saying midcarders beating other midcarders would not give the winner credibility, just look at who would be involved: punk, finlay, jeff hardy, mvp, jericho, etc. if the winner had to beat three of them in one night, that would be damn impressive since any of these names could give the world champ a run for his money if given a chance. i dont see how anyone can say the competition would be weak. and adding main eventers to the tourney would kinda defeat the purpose, no? edge doesnt need to participate in the tourney, hes already been champ recently.
but anyway, i think although at first it seems having both mitb and kotr presents a problem, if evenly spaced out i dont think it would hurt anybody having both contests in the year. perhaps even the mitb winner one year can cash it in during the same main event the kotr winner is participating in, making the match a triple threat (if the briefcase holder chooses to do that). if you want to take it to the extreme, you can change the stipulation of mitb from cashing it in within a year to within six months. at first this seems stupid, but this might actually make the months following wm seem more exiting, since you know the mitb winner has to cash it in relatively sooner. the kotr can roll around and we have yet another midcarder getting an opportunity. thats two people being given a legitamite push a year, which is way more than we've ever gotten lol. and this would make sense since we are dealing with three different rosters.
