Bryan, Ziggler, etc are honestly way beyond the IC Title now. It has zero prestige and the champion constantly loses because the only way WWE bookers can think of booking an IC Title feud is by having the champion lose non-title matches over and over. No one is ever elevated; only devalued. The belt is worthless.
Give it to Truth. It would make me sad to see Bryan with it - he's so much better than that belt. He main evented WM one year ago, he shouldn't be parading the IC Title around a year later. Truth is at least at that level and can make it entertaining.
Even if he's on commentary every week with the title. It'd be fun.

If Bryan, Ziggler, etc. Aren't competing for the IC Title, they'd be the ones beating the IC Champion in non-title matches because WWE thinks that beating the IC Champ is a "big deal" and that if Bryan were the one doing it, it would trick the fans into thinking they're high on him and shut them up. They won't be competing for ANY titles while the WWE Title is stuck on Roman unless they turn heel and no one wants that. Imo Truth is below the IC Title, even if the champion IS jobbing to everyone, and giving it to him would just be dragging it down further than it already is. The IC Title needs to be contested by name talents who aren't currently in the world title picture. If WWE wants Truth to have a belt, bring in a TV Title or something.

Truth at least wins a match a time or two, I can't remember Barrett winning a match since he won the title - that's bad. I'd much rather guys like Bryan be in the main title contention and not being a happy second fiddle with the IC Title or challenging for it. Especially if Rollin's ends up cashing in the title match and winning, Bryan hold a victory over Rollins recently on Raw and has the argument that he belongs in the title match and that's a much better spot for him than being anywhere near that cursed title, in my opinion.

Barrett may lose a lot, but I feel like Barrett carries himself like a star and Truth doesn't. I want Bryan to be in main title contention too. I complain about Bryan's booking a lot too. But I just want him to be doing something if he isn't. I think if Bryan is Intercontinental Champion, the fans won't allow him to fall into typical IC Title curse booking. And WWE themselves won't job him out so much because they need to make it look like they're giving him something in order to quell the Reigns backlash. Giving the belt to Truth would ruin all of that.

Of all the guys in the title match, I find Truth the most entertaining. So he's got my support.

I just find it weird the IC champ is losing to jobbers like Truth and the US champ just beat Cena.

The Hardcore Championship would be perfect for R Truth. He could just do the same act (stealing the hardcore title and giving it to people instead of fighting, only to steal it again) and it would be fun. Let Bryan, Ziggler and Ambrose have serious feuds for the IC title and give the likes fo Truth and others the hardcore title to have fun with

I don't understand what he is saying, and as a 40+ year old, he does not need to be wasting a spot on the roster The guy with a Hayes signature shitting on a black wrestler. How... unsurprising.
