Out of the people who look to be competing for it at Summerslam, if anything, who should walk out the champ? And the match, is assumingly going to be a ladder match whether it be a 1 on 1 or triple threat. Now here are some legitimate reasons why each person should be champ.
Carlito - He has great mic skills and is young, the title is doing him good, going in the ring with people like RVD and Benjamin only helps him. He is very charismatic and the crowd really digs him. He is a great cocky heel.
Shelton - Its good to have a face as champion, a talented face at that. His wrestling skills are seemingly unmatched at times. He can hang with the best of them (I.E Chris Jericho, HBK, HHH) and puts on great matches. He has shown he can do well in ladder matches (Wrestlemania 21) and needs another title reign in the IC division do to it being cut rather sudden.
RVD - He is great on the mic and can put on awesome matches. He has some of the most entertaining ladder bouts and already has something going with Carlito. If he is to come back from injury and IC title reign could be great for him. He is a vet and has proven he deserves to get pushed, despite what WWE does.
====================================================================
Reasons for them not to be champ
Carlito - His wrestling skills at the moment seem to be just average, although they can improve, there are only so many people out there who can help him in the IC division to give him great matches, and Benjamin has even been having trouble, just being able to reach ** 1/2 or ** 3/4 if LUCKY. There are also just a lack of faces and it might be better for the title division if there were a face holding it so that he could have more challengers since the heels are more numerous.
Shelton - He already had a 8 or 9 month reign with the championship, record breaking. He also isn't the top guy on the stick. Even though he definitly should have another reign, Carlito's reign should be given some more time perhaps. Not to mention Shelton has pretty much defeated all of the mid cards.
Rob Van Dam - He has had the title like 3-5 times already and might not get back from injury in time. Hes also maybe gonna get pushed to the main event, who knows. Him taking the title from Carlito would maybe be somewhat odd since there is less build between him and carlito then carlito and shelton, so unless he would come back the next week's show, him getting the title wouldn't really make sense or do great to carlito's ic title cred, nor Shelton's.
There, here are some reasons, cast your vote and tell me YOUR reasons why you think one of these men should walk out of Summerslam, the Intercontinental Champion!
