If I was WWE I'd have Kofi defend it at Night of Champions against Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro. I wouldn't mind it being defended against Ryback though.

I like that Kofi wears colorful tights.

I remember when it was a huge deal that Razor Ramon was the first ever 4-time Intercontinental Champ. Exactly what I thought when reading this. |

Kofi's making it into the Hall of Fame based on the strength of his midcard career alone. How often can you say that about somebody? Zack Ryder getting his 15 minutes of fame only to shit the bed and flame out is more Hall of Fame worthy than Kofi's entire career. Except...it's not. |

It would be nice if they, y'know, remotely followed up on that. Though that'd require Kofi having any sort of character to him besides, "Smile, kick." |

Boy it'd be nice if he had a character besides smiling jumping guy. I mean the dude is colorful and entergetic in the ring, which makes him a steup up above all the other gimmickless guys of his day when he first came in and manage to be an over midcard guy, but with guys like the Wyatts and Fandango, who are coming in with really entertaining gimmicks and such, I'm afraid he's becoming a relic at this point.

Then when he loses it he will be a jobber for a couple of months with no direction. Then he will start a random tag team and win the tag titles only to be a jobber with no direction until he goes for the US or IC title again randomly. Yet we wonder why Jimmy can't get over.  |

This is one occasion where I actually hope Kofi wins a midcard championship. Curtis Axel has been an awful IC Champion and I hope he loses it ASAP.
Plus, if Kofi wins the title on Raw atleast we'll actually have an IC title match at Night of Champions.

If it gets the title on Fandango, then I'm all for it!

Looks likely this will happen. We'll get Kofi vs Fandangit in the Kick-Off. EDIT: Forgot about Miz/Fandango. Maybe that can be a triple threat?
At least Axel can have that cool moment where he won the belt on Father's Day. That's about the only thing anyone will ever remember about this reign.

I remember when it was a huge deal that Razor Ramon was the first ever 4-time Intercontinental Champ. I remember when Bret Hart beat Taker to win his 5th WWF title I thought it was huge deal. Now guys like Orton and Cena have 10 time + reigns. It's crazy. |

Mid-card title or not, he's doing pretty good for himself...  |

He's had what... 7 midcard title reigns already and I can't remember a single thing about any of them. I can't see this one been any different.
Why can't they just give someone else a go as placeholder midcard title holder if they need a face to drop it to a heel.

Did I miss a joke? Why are people assuming Kofi is having an IC title match this Monday and that he will win???

Another, "ok time to end Axels title reign, just stick it back on Kofi for now until we find the next mid card guy we want to give a tempory push to"

Did I miss a joke? Why are people assuming Kofi is having an IC title match this Monday and that he will win??? Because he beat Axel on Smackdown, the ppv coming up is Night of Champions and Axel's match isn't for the IC Title, and the only reason Axel has the title is because Fandango got injured. So it's the thought that Kofi will win the IC Title, and drop it to Fandango at Night of Champions. |

And there is another midcard title out there so let's not act like Kofi is holding an embargo on the midcard title scene. But he is. That other midcard title is stuck in limbo due to being on someone who has been pushed so hard that no midcarder (I'm talking about REAL midcarders, not demoted main eventers like Ziggler, Christian, or Miz) can be seen as a credible threat to him. And who did he win that title from? Guess? Kofi. |
