Thinking about it this morning, the move may be great for Punk. He's out from under Cena, HHH and Batista, and the only main event faces (that I can think of) on Smackdown are Misterio and Jeff Hardy. Just have to get past the whole 'b-show' perception.
I think the smart thing to do with him is book him strong for 6 months and then have him actually win the title clean from edge after cashing in, make every effort to turn him into a main eventer.
But I still think he's the first to cash in and lose.
