anyone else like this? I really like this, the last time they done a tournament was May and it only lasted a night.
It also looks like the IC title is being taken more seriously which I like.

We all realize the Punk is goint to win the IC title, right?
No matter how many shoes Layla throws?
Okay, good.
So they march in jobbers and mid carders to compete when the guy that was screwed out of a title shot BY the title holder is in the tournament?
Don't know if it's right for Punk to be tag champ AND IC champ, but the tag belts are pretty much paperweights at this point, so whatever.
And who was the one that said that the IC title was taking a step towards the WWE championship?
How could they read that without laughing out loud? Back in the day, sure. Nowadays, it's an accessory worn by a midcarder and he'll play "hot potato" with it with other mid carders.
It could be worse, though.
"Batista's road to get his title back" v.s. the IC title tournament?
Bring on the title tournament.

and how do u knw Punk is gonna win it? I don't know if he will win the title, but the fact that he is feuding with the current champion is an indication that he might win the tournament. Of course Regal could cost him a match or something, but logic would indicate that the winner of the tournament would be the one feuding with the champion. Why else would you establish a feud between one of the participants and the champion? |

Also the fact that Regal WANTS Punk to win the tournament only pushes things further.
If Punk does win the tournament AND the title, would that make him the guy who has obtained his Triple Crown the fastest?

Punk won't be tag champ much longer. Miz & Morrison are gonna win their first round matches, setting up Miz v. Kofi & Punk v. Morrison semi-finals, which will lead to a tag team championship match somewhere in the near future and Miz & Morrison winning the titles. IMO
But yeah, it's painfully obvious Punk's gonna win the tourney. But that's okay, but Punk v. Regal is awesome.

I like the fact they are trying to make the IC title seem important.

I'm a little sad about how Santino isn't in the picture right now. He lost the belt in a few seconds, gets no rematch, then isn't even in the tournament. Kinda reminds me of Booker T after he lost the World Title to Batista. No rematch, had to enter the rumble to get the rematch, feuded with Kane over nothing.

Technically he already obtained the triple crown: ECW title, World Heavyweight champion, and Tag Champion. |

Wikipedia says only the IC title counts as the #2 belt which is weird cos both world titles count. |

As things stand... Kofi Kingston b. Kane Rey Mysterio vs. The Miz Finlay vs. John Morrison CM Punk b. Snitsky SEMI FINALS Kofi Kingston vs. Rey Mysterio/The Miz Finlay/John Morrison vs. CM Punk ...where's Noble? Seriously, he has gotten no form of revenge against Regal and hasn't done anything notable in like a month. This would fit perfectly for him. |

It's all just a ploy to hype up the DVD. They don't really care about the championship!
Other than that I like the tournament thing.
