Ryback won the Intercontinental Championship. It's about time he won something. I think it is a good move. He is liked. Maybe the WWE can soon pick back up that feud against Bray Wyatt and one day let Wyatt hold a title.
Someone you did not see in an Elimination Chamber match last Sunday was Damien Sandow. He has been teaming with Curtis Axel. Did they have a chance of getting in the match for the tag titles? No, they're not worth it. Considering some of the teams that were in this match, that's saying something. They are a comedy team. The thing about Sandow, he was very over a little while ago. He had so much momentum, they could have given him a great singles push and even put him in the Elimination Chamber match for the Intercontinental Championship. And yet, he gets nothing.
This is something you see a lot. A worker the WWE wants to feature well is given a sidekick. No partnership seems to last forever. When the split happens, you usually see the sidekick get lost in the shuffle and the other continue in a good position. Sandow was paired with Miz. Sandow got very over. The WWE has not properly followed up. You need a proper midcard to help draw for you. Just running an efficient system is half of it. The other half is having workers that are over. There are a lot of guys that are over, or were over, that could help the midcard. The WWE cannot take things like that for granted. They cannot think that they got those guys over through how they pushed them and they can do the exact same thing for everyone. Once some fans get connected to a wrestler they like, they might not just sit there and watch their favorites always get demoted like this. There is plenty of space that you don't have to see Roman Reigns so much on a 3-hour show. Treat guys like Sandow, Cody Rhodes, Jack Swagger, and Zack Ryder better.
