Punk is now above the World Heavyweight Championship. Sad but true.

God I hope not. It would be a slap in the face to Punk. Let's face it, the World Championship means a fraction of what the WWE Championship does (and that says a lot at this point), and there's absolutely no reason for Punk to suddenly jump ship to the World Title.
I see one of a few scenarios going down...
-WWE fines Swagger quietly, only allows him to work TV, feeds him to Del Rio at Wrestlemania and then lets him fizzle out into obscurity. Ziggler potentially cashes in, leading to a feud with Del Rio.
-Swagger beats down Del Rio on Raw, Ziggler cashes in, wins the title. Del Rio and Swagger face off on Smackdown to decide who faces Ziggler at Wrestlemania, Del Rio wins, Swagger fizzles into obscurity.
-WWE actually full out suspends Swagger with no TV write off, holds some sort of number one contender match on Raw or Smackdown, and moves forward, forgetting Swagger even existed.
And to me, least likely, but I suppose still possible, they quietly fine Swagger, and just try to forget about the whole thing.

I could see Del Rio/Swagger be this year's short match, like last year's Sheamus/Daniel Bryan, the year before's Corre/Santino&friends, 25's Mystero/JBL & 24's Kane/Chavo.

it would be a demotion for Punk.
it would be like Savage,Ultimate Warrior,Bret,HBK,Rock or Austin going back to the IC title picture after they won the WWF title.
because thats what the WHC is.......the IC belt of old in terms of value.

Scenario: Punk takes Swaggers spot at WrestleMania and wins WHC. Next night on Raw he comes out and says how he is the "best in the world" and is the top guy in the E, and then proposes that he vacates the WHC in exchange for a WWE Championship match with the new champion John Cena (we all know it's happening).
This way we get Punk back in to the main event scene where he belongs, and we get rid of the now unnecessary WHC.

However I do agree that it would de-value Punk a little in the meantime, but will serve to take him back as the main guy eventually.
