So, my question is this: Did Big Show's reign have any real point to it, or was he just a placeholder? The point was to get the belt off Sheamus with hurting him or making the person who took it off of him look weak. Is Del Rio just providing a babyface for Dolph to cash in on or what? That is my guess. He's an easy face for Ziggler to cash in on.

So how long was Big Show champ? Because I remember around the time he won the belt, reports came out that the WWE was looking to keep people champs for longer periods of time.... Got it at Hell in a Cell and lasted 72 days according to Wiki. Well, so much for that news item. That seems boringly typical of this ADHD WWE era..... Perhaps this title run was also just to make up to Big Show the fact that Bryan cashed in on him after having the belt for barely 2 minutes.

Del Rio's problem last year was that he got ultra stale as a heel. It would be the same if Ted Dibiase debuted in WWE nowadays. He'd be an over heel for a year or so, but then the millionaire schtick grows tired. I'm just astounded that Del Rio is getting over as a face. I would have thought he would need to renounce the "arrogant rich jerk" gimmick.

I just noticed the Rock Paper Scissors trio in effect.
Sheamus always beats Del Rio. Del Rio always beats Big Show. Big Show always beats Sheamus.
They are like starting Pokemon.

Yeah, so typical of WWE with its other world champion who's had the belt for over a year.

Also: 144+ days (37th longest, including NWA/WCW reigns). And: 116+ days (12th longest reign).

Well.... this sounds shit.
Why the hell do 3MB need to get destroyed in a handicap match by Sheamus? What purpose does that serve other than to destroy a tag teams credibility?
Also booooo.... ADR sucks as much as a face as he does a heel. I was loving Shows run as World Heaviweight Champ.

Spoilers are what kept WWE from making important things happen on SmackDown. WWE purposely made SD uneventful because they didn't want something huge to happen only for the wrestling sites to spoil it. I'm guessing WWE just decided to bite the bullet. They figure, we might as well spoil SD since the dirtsheets are going to do it anyway. WWE just accepts that SD will be spoiled no matter what they do and makes it meaningful again. Exactly. WWE are doing it to beat the news sites to the punch. twitter.com/JoeyStyles/status/288862601578950657Joey Styles @joeystyles “... wwe and @joeystyles spoil SmackDown because they'd rather you get the spoiler from them than a wrestling news site.” Bingo!

They should be tag team champions.

How does someone replace a placeholder champion with another placeholder champion?
