It's not time for another KO World title run, I feel. He was, imo, on the right track during the Reigns feud, but after that he sadly fell off again

As long as they give Big E a good meaty storyline going into mania to give him some extra time to keep momentum and develop
I don't think they will, IF they drop him now.

A KO rumble win would be sweet

I mean, I feel as though WWE is hurting a bit since they just haven't developed people enough outside of a handful

Like Roman's title reign, overall has been great, but the issue with their booking is that they are using the title reign as the end itself, not as a mean.

And what I mean is, let's compare Kenny's title run in AEW, not as long, but still both fairly long runs with a heel champion.

There was a clear end game with Kenny's title run to put over Hangman, which he did. So after the title run we have two stars at min. Him and Hangman, but also for the people he beat during his reign, for the most part they weren't worst off. Jungle Boy had a good showing, Rey Fenix did as well, Moxley at least was still a big star. Christian actually beat him and got instant credibility, OC and PAC had a good showing in the 3 way

When I look at Roman's reign, most title contenders didn't really grow/get better afterwards. Finn was buried, and most didn't really gain much from the program. Maybe Edge remained a star, D-Bry had a good final hurrah before going to AEW and then Jey had a great showing (but he is back as a tag guy so nothing changed aside form a turn)

And Roman looks strong as hell, but what is the end game of the title run? Who is going to beat him? If they wanted a match against The Rock, then A: that is betting on him being free and B: Then the only real benefit longterm is Roman who... doesn't need it. Is it Brock? Who may be enjoyable as a face now but is already a box office guy.

Which is a disappointment because Cesaro and Jey both had potential to be made men coming off the Reigns feuds but naturally they didn't capitalize on them
