Why are they wasting him over on ECW?? He's done good things there, but its time for him to move up. ECW has come along nicely with the new talent initiative, but with Regal now there to take over a veteran role, i say put the belt on him and let Christian shine on Raw or SD! in the main event. What do you think??

My only guess is that they don't have any main event face's there.

I still don't think Christian would be anything more than a midcard guy on either of the other brands - Bringing him back on ECW (and keeping him there) are two of the best moves WWE have made in a long time. It was and still is an extremely (excuse the pun) smart move.

I feel like he's doing alright. He's still got several more years in him, too, so I think that ECW is a decent fit. I would love to see him on Smackdown when Edge returns or at the next draft or something, but right now I think it is certainly an overstatement to say he's being "wasted." ECW is a great show with great wrestling. And he's at the very top of ECW.

I agree completly, but I can't help but maintain this fear that somehow, some way, Christian will get lost in the shuffel....I know Vince has finally wised up....but still...
Also gotta say, you're avatar made me lmao. You need to add a caption to it, like WHOMP!

^^^LOL u got it
I think he would do very well on SD!. A feud with Punk would work, and he could get WAY over on SD! IMO. He is the most over guy on ECW and he'd be even more over if moved to SD!. Plus feuds with Edge, Jericho, and maybe even the Undertaker.

If Jeff is indeed leaving i'd love for Christian to go to SD and fill his shoes.

Christian can get over with the fans extremely well with ease. he's done it, but he hasn't really gotten over with Vince much in the past. i don't know the story now but before he was a small guy and Vince loved his big guys. but now maybe with the much love shown for Punk, Hardy and Edge things would be different.
right now i don't feel any rush to get him to the big leagues as i'm enjoying his time on ECW and would love to see a lengthy feud with Regal.
only time will tell really.

Seeing as the main event of Smackdown consists of Jeff Hardy and CM Punk...there is no doubt that Christian will be main eventing the show sooner or later. But for now, he carries the ECW brand, and that's a big deal.

If he were to leave, ECW would have no one. WWE has always consistently kept at least 1 very high B level or decent A level star on ECW at all times. My friend and I were talking about this the other day, since ECW is basically a televised breeding ground for new WWE talent(Punk, Bourne, Swagger, Kofi), so most stars are to green to draw, so they leave a star on the show to help build the other talents up, plus breath new life into guys who were doing nothing or getting way to stale on Raw and SD(Goldust, Kozlov, Regal, Benjamin, Ryder). They've had.... Big Show Lashley Kane Matt Hardy Mark Henry Christian But on occasion they do let the younger, newer talent carry the show... Punk, Morrison, Swagger... I think now they need to add one more well established face in and send Christian on his way to Smackdown. I think they need to build R-Truth up to a main event status then switch him out with Christian.

With Jeff leaving and a lack of main event faces on Smackdown......a move for Christian isnt out of the realm.

No thank you, ECW doesn't need to get raped in the butthole once again. He is doing fine on there, keep him there until the next Draft.

Christian would fit in perfect on Smackdown!; no doubt about it. As far as the top face of ECW goes, there's no reason the Hurricane can't take over that mantle, seeing as he has returned. He's pretty damn over and has been around for years now.
They could easily move R-Truth over there to take over the spot, too. He's over, he's got talent, but he's getting lost in the shuffle on Smackdown!
I'd like to see Christian have a lengthy feud with Regal before he drops the belt to Regal and moves on.

Ever since Christian's returned, he hasn't seemed like a main eventer. Which is sad, because I thought he should be main eventing in 2005 before he left and was a huge fan of the guy. But now, he looks old, tired, skinny and frail. His promos seem passionless. And his matches, his moveset, scream "midcarder."
Then again, he's been booked as equal to jobbers like Dreamer, Regal, Shelton and Ryder so he's bound to come off as a midcarder. I think the only thing that'll make him a main-eventer on one of the real shows is a hot angle with Edge and/or Jericho.

I agree with everyone who said move him to SD and feud with Punk. He's used ECW as a stepping stone back into the WWE, now it is time for a bigger stage.

If he were to leave, ECW would have no one. Pretty much. I think he could totally take Jeff's place on SD if he does leave.
