By rights it should have been him versus Ziggler for the IC title. Kofi has had plenty of shots and failed, plus it was Kofi who got pinned by Ziggler in the Triple threat. Should have been Swagger in their instead of Kofi

Swagger wasn't even on Superstars this week, was he? I wonder what's up, if he was just under the weather or something.

Didn't he recently get married? Probably requested time off for the honeymoon.

I'm guessing illness. I doubt that they want a guy wrestling when he's sick (fear of getting other people sick) so they told him to stay home, maybe?

Come to think of it, Teddy Long wasn't there either. Maybe he and Jack were plotting some sort of plan for next week.
The real reason: Vickie Guerrero hates Jack Swagger and sees him as a threat, therefore he wasn't on the show because she was in charge this week. [/kayfabe]

I think the reason they gave on commentary was that Kofi was getting the shot because of the spot where he had Swagger I think it was pinned, but Vickie put his foot on the ropes.

[/kayfabe] That wouldn't have happened if he was still goofy Swagger, beating his chest like a gorilla, doing push-up pyro and running around with an eagle mascot. Your "SRS BIZNESS" attitude is costing you championships, Jack!

Now that Kofi-Ziggler saga ended, now Kofi-Swagger saga would commence.

I assumed he was too busy looking like Gary Busey.
...
C'mon, I like the guy but you have to admit the resemblance is unmistakable.

I like Swagger. He's really good but needs some direction. A good feud would put him in the mix again. Darren Young isn't doing anything- he and the eagle oughtta whoop him some.

Because he wasn't part of the finish last week? Dolph held Kofi's tights (not against the rules as it was a triple threat) well Swagger was KO'd from TIP. So there shouldn't have been a rematch, but since there was Swagger had no right to be in a rematch as if it wasn't for Ziggler winning Swagger would've been pinned.

Wasn't Swagger doing his entrance push ups last week? I thought he stopped being SRS after he dropped the title, myself.

When he was showing his trophs as world champ,he spent a day goofy,then SRS He kept srs for a while,brought the Eagle,getting goofy again. Then he sent it alway,getting litte serious again.

He was feuding with MVP until Porter got released, then he floundered again. It's like half the time, the writers forget he's even in the company. I think of them in Creative Control, with all these magnetic pictures they switch back and forth on the board...and most of the time the Jack Swagger magnet fell on the floor getting stepped on. "So it's Kofi versus...hey! Didn't we draw up a match with Kingston for this week? I could have sworn I put something there!" "Eh, just put Dolph Ziggler there. Trent Baretta can go another week without an appearance."
