So now, compared to lets say a few years ago, both of the mid card championships were seen as something worthy but looking at today
People have been saying this for YEARS. It's always the same argument of "the titles used to mean so much, and now they're crap. A few years ago they were great. A few years ago they meant something." A few years ago people were saying the same thing... There was a time when great people would hold the mid-card titles, but it was rare (if at all) that the belt is what actually made them great. The main problem now is nobody WANTS to be IC or US Champion. It's always a stepping stone to the WWE title, and nobody is actually seeking after the mid-card belts.
Dolph Ziggler - He is being misused at the minute
I completely disagree. A few nights ago he came out with an AWESOME remix to his theme song, and he's been determined and passionate for months now. There is a lot going on for Monday Night Raw, and just because he's not feuding with CM Punk or John Cena doesn't mean he's being mis-used. I like him where he's at. Few guys get that slow build towards the top, and after he was rushed into the title picture against Edge (granted he did a great job) I'm glad to see they are taking their time with him on Raw. He'll get his chance to shine soon, but for now he's doing a fantastic job as champion.
Ezekiel Jackson - Who? Yes I know who he is but really, he came out of nowhere with The Corre, split up from them and won the title from Wade who was doing good as the champ. He isn't really bringing and shine to the title let's say and I want to see someone else with him.
Jackson hasn't been impressing as much as many people thought he would, but I saw that coming from a mile away. He's a huge, bulking character that is great as the muscle of the group, but as soon as they made him go-it-alone I was scared he didn't have the charisma to be champion. BUT, I applaud Smackdown for going in a new direction with him, and giving somebody new the chance to be champion. Also, whoever beats him for the title is going to look great, because dethroning a giant is always a big deal. It could eventually make somebody like Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiase, or even Daniel Bryan look really good.
My question to you is, who do you think will be the next US and Intercontinental champion and who do you want as the champions?
I want Dolph Ziggler as the current champion on Raw. He needs to stay right where he is, but I wouldn't mind seeing him go into a feud with Alex Riley, the new face around town. Unfortunately, both of those guys really need the rub right now, and unless they pull out a series of 5 star matches, somebody is going to look weaker.
I won't comment on who I want to dethrone Jackson, because I honestly can't watch Smackdown that often. I don't have the time or ability to do so, so it's hard to really say what would be best for the state of the show.
then I'd like to see Rhodes and Daniel Bryan continue their programme but now include the ic title (with Daniel Bryan wanting to wait till wrestlmania to cash in his MITB,this would be a a good way to keep him relevant and an ic reign under his belt before the top title)
