The most underutilized wrestler on the WWE roster is again left in the dark on ECW, the trade between RAW and ECW was a perfect opportunity to put the Instant Classic on RAW, but no, instead they're leaving him on the C brand that 3 people actually care about. It almost makes me sick, Christian has so much talent and charisma thats being wasted. He should be main eventing on either Smackdown! or RAW right now, and the fact that he's a former TNA star makes it worse. Vince could have pushed Christian hard to show the other TNA wrestlers that are thinking of jumping ship, that if they sign with WWE, Vince will give them a chance to shine, thus resulting in some TNA stars actually making the jump to the E and giving the roster some much needed help. But no, they bury him on ECW, and now we have to wait until after Wrestlemania 26 for a chance to see him switch brands. I'm not happy about this, Christian deserves much better.

You realize SD was involved too, right?

ECW is miles better than Raw man.

Lol. He just came from being ECW Champion.

Speak for yourself. Yeah, ECW doesn't get a 10.3 rating, and it's certainly taken in less consideration by WWE itself, but it doesn't mean people don't care about it. See WWE's current pushed acts. Most of them came from ECW and got over on ECW.

Is that you talking, or Jim Cornette.

To be honest, on current evidence I don't see Christian climbing the ladder much further... The crowds are favouring Dreamer over him a notable amount of the time and I actually find his ring work kinda boring.

Was hoping that Finlay would turn full-blown heel and fued with him, but at this point I'd rather see Christian turn heel instead.

With Swagger off on RAW now it's quite obvious they're going to try Christian as top heel over on ECW. There are some other names that could possibly compete with that now, but I suppose that's kind of a spoiler and we'll talk about that at a later date.

One of the most ridiculous statements I have ever read. Since returning in February he has had at match at ever ppv with the exception of No Way Out and only because he debuted just two weeks before the ppv. Since he's easily the biggest star on the ECW roster that pretty much always assures him a ppv match since he will always be in the hunt for the ECW title or the champion. Chances are he will turn heel sometime in the near future, and if he can have a solid run on ECW he should be in line for a good push when he does move to Raw or Smackdown.

CMstar already mentioned it but you basically said everything that Jim Cornette said. If you haven't noticed, Cornette is unbelievably biased. I can't speak for anyone other than myself, but as a Christian fan I like the spot that he's in right now.

Lol, Chess. You've said yourself many times that ECW is the best show WWE has. So taking him away would be a huge blow to it. Why would you want that? He's on the C show, sure, but he makes appearances at the majority of PPVs, occasionally appears on SD, and when he's not, he's making ECW a great show. I'd rather that than him being buried.

ECW was a bit of a darkhorse for some quality matches. Now with Bourne and Swagger gone, I'm not so sure. Regal and Christian could probably put on a good match though. Although Kozlov looming large if this week's show is anything to go by.

Benjamin is still pretty good to.
