Push Miz to the moon! He will be the next great WWE heel if they are willing to invest in him. Natural heat magnet. WWE messed that up by having The Miz getting squashed to John Cena. He has excellent charisma and decent wrestling skills to be a main eventer. They have at least steadily rebuilt him since then, but I remain skeptical that they have the drive to push him all the way to the ME. On the whole "its Orton/Evolution storyline again" thought, I have a question; did that method even work the first time?

On the whole "its Orton/Evolution storyline again" thought, I have a question; did that method even work the first time? In the long run, it gave Hunter and Flair something to do and it gave the two new guys major storylines. Sure, Orton's initial solo push failed. But yes, it placed two new stars in the midst of some big storylines and allowed the fans to get acclimated to seeing them at the top of the card. Cody and Ted were in the main event just last month against DX at HiaC. They have been teasing the Legacy breakup for months now. Fans would likely be willing to get behind at least one of the three if the turn is booked right. *See my Book a Brand through S.S. thread lower on page 1* The major issue is that DiBiase getting the push now forces Cena away from the main event so that Ted can look better. Keep him away from Cena. I'm not sure what this means for Cena, but it likely ends up with him in the Royal Rumble match rather than a RR title match.

I guess it's fortuitous that Survivor Series essentially gives them a free month to burn. But they NEED to elevate SOMEBODY to get Cena a fresh challenger. Unless they import somebody from Smackdown, or have JeriShow drop the belts and have Show feud with Cena. But seriously...please...no. Elevate someone.

You could spend the next two months building to a champ vs champ feud. Cena can captain one Survivor Series team (perhaps with Morrison, Rey, and Christian as his teammates) while Punk captains the opposing team (with Batista, Miz, and Regal as his teammates). While the team captains will indeed interact with each other, but they will still have other time on their hands. They can use Cena vs Miz and Punk vs Morrison to help build towards the PPV for the rest of the time. Since no titles would be on the line, you can let Miz get a few screwy wins in the meantime against Cena and maybe do something to cause Cena to get eliminated at Survivor Series. That way Miz will be halfway built up as a real thorn in Cena's side, and you can then spend the next several weeks building towards a champ vs. champ match at the next PPV.

Why would they push a mid carder for a title shot at one of the big 4 with just a months prep?
Doesn't make sense.
Is it possible that there will be no Raw title match at Survivor Series? It could be Jerishow, Legacy and Orton vs DX, Kofi, Cena and MVP at a push?
Have Orton either push around Di Biase until he snaps or have Orton attack Cena at every chance causing Cena to beg for a match against Orton; it's not ideal but it may work.
The DX vs Jerishow can really establish the titles as meaningful if DX go for them. Kofi and MVP are already friends anyway.
It really does seem like a problem.
