Sorry CM I just can't back you on this one

Does he really need to take this avenue into a world title matchThe sensible answer would be no But I would never count him out.. The Matt Hardy for the next world champion bandwagon is already at a full head of steam. Almost every internet wrestling forum seems high on the idea that Matt should claim world gold before long.But behind the lemming-like acceptance by most that this proposal warrants merit, lies the fact that there are few wrestlers more worthy to finally claim one of the biggest prizes in the business.Very few wrestlers have as much passion for what they do as Matt Hardy.From an early age he and Jeff would practise wrestling on a trampoline they got one year for Christmas. Matt would go on to run his own wrestling promotion, and through it find his way into the WWE. Over a decade of solid work, gruelling matches, storied feuds, and shear gall has earned him the position he holds in the WWE, and few could argue against his labours deserving accolades.I feel that Matt has paid his dues to a company that I am sure will reward him along the line with the title he craves most: world champion.Will that process begin at the Royal Rumble We can only wait and see.You may argue that Hardy has a better chance of taking the Money in the Bank crown, but in all honesty I feel he is above that.Nearly five years ago a man whom with which Matt began, and developed, his career with, Edge, earned the first ever Money in the Bank contract. The effect that had on his career is history, and he is now the seventh most decorated world champion in history.For Matt to now begin walking that path at this stage in his career is, to me, wrong. A path that newcomers to the WWE like CM Punk should be, and have been, taking.

Gone are the days when he could compete in the calibre of high-risk match that ultimately cemented his name in the wrestling annals.His latest WrestleMania match is testament to that fact, as in one of his bread and butter extreme rules matches, he relied far too heavily on his brother to take the risks.This, however, does not mean there is no place for him in the WWE.One of my favorite wrestlers, Triple H, took a similar approach to his career. Ladder and hardcore matches were once a staple to him, but now a superplex or anything of equal high impact to him would probably result in injury.Matt has a more than adequate enough skill-base to accommodate this short-coming, and I feel he is more than deserving of having his name finally associated with world gold.. You would have to have been hiding under your sofa for the past year whilst watching wrestling to realize that this guy is on fire at the moment.Everything he touches lately in the WWE turns to gold, and arguably he should have his hands on some currently had it not been for the interference of SuperCena.Last year, Orton won the Rumble coming off the back of a huge influx of popularity after returning from injury and setting up the stable Legacy.This year he is in an entirely different position.Although he is still a massive star at the moment, he has gone slightly off the boil.Pushing Kofi Kingston has taken some of the wind out his sails, but the Legacy team leader will always find a way to get back to full speed.A Royal Rumble win would certainly achieve that aim, and put Randy back on his path to becoming one of the all-time greats.It is a pretty hard to bet against someone with Rhodes and DiBiase fighting their corner, but I find it hard to imagine Orton taking this honor two years in a row. Not that he doesn't deserve it, but I think others could benefit much more from this win, and the WWE could miss a trick if they hand him his second Rumble win..

But after that disdain was converted into heel heat, things started making sense.Punk has proved before that he can carry either face or heel personae, and I am sure there are many more good things going to be coming from his direction.I'm not really sure why a Punk win at the Rumble would benefit the WWE. But could he not just find his way into that match another way I think so.I am no soothsayer, but it just doesn't seem like this is a very sensible option to take. Punk is fantastic, but it would just be a major disappointment if he were to win.Sorry, CM, I just can't back you on this one.. Edge's interlude from the WWE due to injury was horrific timing; he was at the peak of his career, and only stood to further it.I am sure I am not alone when I say I miss him, and wish him a swift return to our screens. The suggestion that he returns as a face not only makes sense, but for some reason it feels right.I don't know about you, but I actually want to cheer Edge for once I want to see him winning. His title victories in the past have been brief, and dubious.
