The tourney should be used to build new stars, not the ones that are already established as top talent.

THIS.

And I'm MORE than happy with GUNTHER winning but this should have been used to vault the liks of Solo, Melo or even Jey (he doesn't really need it, but he has not won a truly meaningful match since moving to singles competition) to that next level.

I'm curious on history. If I recall, Austin won 96. Maybe someone else from that era remembers if he was already IC champ by then or just starting to heat up. When was the match with Bret at WM 11 right? That was in early 95. Not sure if his KOTR win was to help build a new guy or if he was already built by then just not ME level. Same for any other winners. Gunther already a ME level talent. The issue is that he held the IC title for so long that there was no reason for him to be up on the ME. And that's if they're even gonna make anything meaningful with the win cuz I don't think Woods got pushed or anything or the woman, I think it was Zelina. Only reason she got a title match was likely cuz it was PR and they needed the pr. But winning hasn't really meant much.
