Ambrose will win that cursed title, I just have a feeling... But even if DB ended up holding it, it wouldn't change the fact that title is irrelevant and the IC champ would still be booked as horribly as BNB is right now.
DB is the one guy who can break the IC irrelevance curse.

I'm assuming it must have happened during football season. I don't think I watched anything dealing with WWE for about a 4-5 month stretch there.

Yeah it was on RAW like the first week of the season haha.. it was very weird seeing that.

Just like Cena can break the US irrelevance curse? I admire your optimism. Perhaps it is worth a shot.
How is that even a question? Cena is obviously going to make the US title relevant.

you really think the mid card scene isn't bolstered 1000% if we wake up the morning after Mania and DB and Cena are mid card champs?

I guess you are right. I just hope WWE doesn't find a way to ruin it.

I'd like an angle where DB wins the IC and defends it regularly and he starts to talk about how everyone knows his belt is the most prestigious and it is the true #1 belt.. let him ME a PPV or 2 with it. Have him take on all comers, heel or face. Ziggler gets a shot, Ambrose, Sheamus, hell a champ vs champ match against Cena and his US title. Rusev... tell me they can't get people interested?

Like RVD w/ the TV title in ECW

This is a really good idea. I hope WWE uses it.

So the updated Battle Royal match list consists of: Fandango, Adam Rose, Miz, Axelmania, Ryback..

Alex Riley is campaigning hard for this spot and it looks like with Otunga having a somewhat relevant new role on the pre-show it seems more and more likely that Riley will be in this match like Otunga was last year.

Well, at least we know this shouldn't make the PPV. Pre show it is. And Ryback is the only even remotely credible participant lol

And they don't even get more of a prize than just "here's a trophy lololo," and Swagger destroyed Cesaro's last year. Shame that we don't get Miz vs Mizdow, and it probably won't be able to drag on until Summerslam when they can get the match.

IMO, Daniel Bryan winning the IC title would be nice. Ambrose would be the choice if D-Bry isn't in the match, but if he is, then it's possible that that he can raise the IC title to where it should be. Surely Vince won't let the IC title stay in the "don't give a shit" category, because Cena with US title and D-Bry with IC title will be gold. Just the thought of a unification match main eventing would be amazing. Heck, I wonder if they will do another IC title tournament, like I'm pretty sure they did last year right after WM30. It felt good to have that going on, made me feel as if they gave a shit about the midcard.

I've seen that a lot of you would love to see DB as a IC champion. I wouldn't love just because DB looks to me very boring. Dean Ambrose would be better champ and after all that I'd love to see Luke Harper as the IC champion. BTW Hope that Seth Rollins is going to cash-in that MITB Briefcase at WM .

Steven (William) Regal did something like that for the WCW TV title back in the early 1990's. If I remember correctly, that is when WCW had their World title and the International World title, so I think Regal claimed that he had no interest in that title since there was always two world champions. And because he had an anti American heel gimmick, he didn't want the US Title. So his character held the TV title and claimed it was the most prestigious belt in the company. It worked for me... I became a fan of his during that run and still love the guy now. I see no reason why Daniel Byan couldn't duplicate that.

You're right Dean is a better champ however DB winning the IC would be what's best for business right now IMO.

With talks of AJ Lee being present backstage today and set for a return it looks like Paige & AJ will take on the Bella Twins at WM31 rather than a repeat of Paige vs Nikki for the title.
