To the contrary I think his having it and not having the belt on the show actually ads value to the belt. All the time WWE has the Champion wrestling here and there and constantly giving title shots to whomever. With the belt not being on the show it gives more time to express the value of the belt and build to the chase of it. Now granted WWE didn't actually do this, instead pulling Cena if Rock couldn't be there but they had the chance to put more emphasis into the chase. Now a days anybody can get a title shot, I mean Valdamere Koslov got a freaking shot at it and he was crap.
