Re: Best and Worst of 2011
The WWE gave Christian the biggest push they've ever given him this past year and people are still complaining that he is under-utilized. That's strange.

I didn't get that either Celts. I think they utilized him brilliantly. He was involved in the feud of the year for Christs sake.

Re: Best and Worst of 2011
For me its more of the short title reigns that for shadow and of the storylines that he had with Orton.

Re: Best and Worst of 2011
I don't think the length of the title reigns really matters. He won his first title this year and stayed in the picture for a long time. Then they paired him with Sheamus as they were elevating him in the card. I'd say they used him just fine.
